It Must Be A Nice Life Olivia Jade, A Retrospective From The Poor

I'm sure by now you've already heard about the college admission drama. If not, let me catch you up to speed. Dozens of parents have been charged in a massive college admissions scam where the parents paid thousands of dollars for their children to get into the school. Actress Felicity Huffman and Lori Loughlin AKA Aunt Becky from Full House have been outed by the media.

This brings me to Lori's daughter, YouTuber Olivia Jade. This girl is currently 19 and has 1.9 million followers so she by a standard in a successful YouTube personality.

For example, one is titled (LUXURY) WHAT I GOT FOR CHRISTMAS 2018. This girl sits in front of a camera and shows up what luxury items she has gotten from her parents and family for Christmas. In the picture below she has a Gucci wallet which is valued at $590, yes almost six hundred dollars. Trust me, the most expensive thing she got was a Chanel bag worth $4,900. In total, she had received 20 items at a total value of $8,606...Why are you making a video, bragging about the expensive items you receive while people can't even afford gifts for their own children? You brag how you got pants that you wanted (But didn't buy) and was glad you didn't waste your money on them...I can't with this thinking.

It must be nice to have the money for all those things. Me? I have to take out students loans to afford my education. I'm the first in my immediate family to so college, and I'm online because not many colleges around me had the major.

It must be nice to cheat to get into a school. I wanted to take zoology and work for animals but I don't get the chance. I couldn't pass the ACT/SAT because I find them difficult and I'm not the best at studying. Besides that, I don't have the money to pay for a university such as OSU because I'd have to stay on campus, money I don't have for that either.

I'm sure a lot of us feel this way. I didn't think she had much to do with it until I started digging and I'm glad I did. There are kids out there wanting to get a good education not only for themselves but for their families as well. It isn't fair that you and the other kids get a free ride into it while we have to work, work and pay for it, can't afford it or take out students loans.

I hope that you can get past all the narcissist ways and thinking and realize why people are angry. The parents are equally to blame as well but when I sit there and hear quotes, watch videos and read comments, I can't help but to put the blame on you as well. You said you didn't want to go, your parents wanted you to but you could care less...Parties and boys are more important than education, right?

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.
