Pay Day, the day that solves all your problems. Well, that is supposed to solve all your problems. Every two weeks us hardworking employees anxiously wait for Pay Day to arrive and bless our bank accounts. For most people, Pay Day usually lands on a Friday, which means we finally have money again to spend during the weekend, right? Well, that's not always the case. Pay Day is a wonderful day that brings many people joy, but it can also be another reminder of just how broke you really are. Here are a few gifs that perfectly describe the ups and downs of Pay Day.

1. The day before

A gif to resemble the day before Pay Day. Some people may spend this day trying to calculate how much they are going to get this pay period and try to do the responsible thing and figure out how much money is going to bills and important stuff. Others (like me) spend this day dreaming about all the ways they are going to blow their pay check on ridiculous non-necessity things. Either way, all we want is our money!

2. Pay Day

Finally, Pay Day arrives and this gif perfectly demonstrates the happy dance we all do while counting our money after we stop at the ATM after Pay Day. If you don't have your Pay Day money dance you aren't doing Pay Day right.

3. The celebration

On Pay Day we feel like we can do anything that involves money. Anyone who works hard for a paycheck should be allowed to use their money any way they please, but sometime we get carried away with our paycheck and start throwing money around like it's nothing. #makeitrain

4. The illusion of a nice check

A gif so perfect it's ridiculous. This gif is a great representation of how, for some reason, we always seem to talk ourselves into buying something we know we shouldn't be spending our pay check on because thinking is for the poor.

5. The reality of adulthood

This gif describes the way we feel on Pay Day when we realize we have to use half of our check on bills. All we want is to enjoy our money, is that too much to ask?!

6. The reality of reality

This gif is a representation of the exact moment you check your bank account after a long weekend and paying those bills you had been dreading.

7. The conclusion

Since you blew all your money on pointless stuff and bills, here you are, explaining to your friends why you can't make it to the bars tonight. See you in another two weeks, Pay Day!

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
