6 Reasons to Get Excited About Season 3 of 'Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"

Back in 2014 the Netflix original series "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt" debuted and was instantly a comedy sensation. Starring Ellie Kemper ("The Office" and "Bridesmaids") alongside Tituss Burgess, Jane Krakowski, and Carol Kane, the show follows Kemper's character, Kimmy, as she learns about the world around her. Why would she have to learn you ask? Well she was held captive by a crazy "Reverend" (Jon Hamm) in a bunker for years, so all of her knowledge about the world is at a fourteen year-old's level. Mix this in with a few other outlandish situations and you've got yourself plenty of laughs. In honor of the third season premiere on May 19, here are a few reasons to get excited for the return of Kimmy and her friends.

1. Kimmy's unique vocabulary.

If being held captive means one thing, it means not being up to date with the latest phrases and lingo. But maybe not knowing what hashtag means is a good thing? Well either way, this example of peculiar word choice is part of this red head's charm.

2. The show's ability to point out flaws with society.

One might easily ask, what the heck Jacqueline is doing by throwing away full water bottles, but the message is clear, that we as a society waste too much. The lack of care for the environment is also a clear dig at the 1%, who have no worry of obtaining clean water.

3. The way that Kimmy owns up to her strange ways.

The thing about Kimmy is, that although she is trying to lead a normal life, she knows that she isn't ever going to be normal. Unfortunately for her, she doesn't seem to realize that everyone around her is weird in their own way, but the fact that she can admit that she's weird puts her a step above her peers.

4. Because Titus speaks French.

If you can take, "bye, Felicia," to a whole other level, then you earn some trust solely on your ability to be creative. In Titus' case, creativity flows at all moments of the day, especially when it involves Barbie dolls or pinot noir.

5. The masterpiece that is "Peeno Noir".

Titus' infamous song may have been a part of the first season, but there have been plenty of goodies like this sprinkled throughout the series. From musical numbers to cartoon segments, this show never fails to entertain.

6. If Kimmy can adapt than so can we.

Because most of us haven't been held captive in a bunker for fifteen years then we should have no problem taking on challenges that life has to throw at us.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
