In my opinion, feelings and emotions are gross. Most days I try to act like I don't have many if any at all for that matter. Yes, I still have a heart, (I promise) but the truth is I'm just not an emotional person. This has carried over into my love life and has had a pretty big effect on the outcome of a lot of my relationships. Some people love it, some people hate it. Regardless of which side you're on, here are seven things to know about dating someone who's not emotional.

1. We tend to not get jealous very easily.

Go out with your friends, have friends of the opposite sex, make plans that don't always involve me. I promise I really don't care.

2. We don't sweat the little things.

Can't talk tonight because you're busy? That's fine, do what you need to do babe. Got distracted doing something at work? Don't worry about it, I understand.

3. Sometimes we suck at communicating.

If you don't hear from me for a day or two, I'm really sorry. Chances are I honestly just got distracted or really don't really feel like talking to anyone.

4. We might push you away.

Opening up to or getting close to people makes me want to cringe. Honestly, you'll probably have to be pretty persistent with me, because I will try to back off.

5. When we say we care we mean it.

If I say I love you, then yes, I do really love you. I might not always be the best at showing it, but I'm not gonna bother saying it if I don't mean it.

6. We show we care in our own way.

I might not tell you how much you mean to me every single day, but I'll always tell you to drive safe and text me when you get there.

7. We do still have feelings.

Big surprise I know, but yes I do still have feelings. I still want to feel like you care, and sometimes my feelings do get hurt.

Finding someone who truly understands and accepts your cold and dead heart can be hard sometimes, but when you finally do, I promise it's pretty awesome.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
