8 Songs Dedicated To My Sister, The Lovely Birthday Girl
Jerry Hernandez

Dear Kris,

I know I don't tell you often enough, or in the best ways (sorry mom!), but you mean the world to me. I know I have not always been the perfect sister, or person for that matter. But you keep me striving to improve myself. You motivate me when I feel like I can't move on, you push me when I need a nudge, and you tell me like it is without any filters. Without you, I would be lost in the world. An anchor. The object of strength that keeps a boat in place while the tides of the ocean rock it back and forth. You are the anchor to life's waves rocking me against my will. You keep me moving when I become paralyzed in fear. To thank you, here are some of the greatest tunes to jump around in your room to (my Yang <3).

1. HUMBLE - Kendrick Lamar

Sit down, B***h. You know why I'm choosing this song as number 1.

2. Truth Hurts - Lizzo

Cause no man is worthy of our love. And if a guy ever thinks he is, he's gotta realize that you and I are a package deal. He can marry you, but he'll be putting up with my stink eye when he annoys you.

3. Hey Look Ma, I Made it - Panic! At The Disco

Every time I listen to anything Panic! I think of you. You spoil me too much and I'm very grateful for it, but I wanted you to know that I'm always thinking of you.

4. Secrets - One Republic

Or really any song from our party. Let's recreate our dance and enjoy the music once again!!

5. Dancing with a Stranger - Sam Smith & Normani

Because everyone needs to dance along to a song with the word dance in the title of the song. Also cause we have impeccable taste in music.

6. HP - Maluma

*Smirking emoji*

7. Stay the Night - Zedd & Hayley Williams

One of our favorite songs from way back when. I remember us being mesmerized by the music video.

8. Here - Alessia Cara

I've always thought of you while listening to this song. Might as well yell along to it and pretend we don't have any neighbors.

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:

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.
