As you know, the world famous show, "American Horror Story," is back to taking up our Wednesday nights at 10 P.M. Screw wearing pink, on Wednesdays, we wear black to show our true Coven-esque personalities. AHS is and has been one of my favorite shows since season one. Something about being scared, creeped out, and impressed just makes the perfect show for me.

However, in recent seasons, AHS was definitely struggling. It all went downhill when Queen Jessica Lange left us in season four, and nothing was the same from there. Seasons five through seven were a bit painful to watch at times, between corny jokes and cringy scenes they thought looked good. The plotlines were horrible, difficult to follow, and each person told stories that disconnected from the others.

Don't get me wrong, I still either watched the episodes as they aired or watched on Netflix later on. But instead of liking them or being entangled in the series, I found myself losing interest and skipping episode after episode.

Roanoke was where I drew the line. It was boring, unentertaining, and reminded me of a horrible store brand "Blair Witch." I stopped watching that season after episode four and still haven't watched it since. When season seven, Cult, followed, I gave it a try. I hoped it wasn't completely about the election, and thankfully it went deeper than that. I definitely had times where I stopped watching, but I went back and finished the entire season. It was honestly pretty good, and I've watched it again since it was put on Netflix.

This season, Ryan Murphy decided to combine every previous season into one big jumble known as "AHS: Apocalypse." I haven't seen it yet, but my excitement is through the roof. When I heard it was focused around Murder House and Coven, I jumped for joy. Then, news broke out that Jessica Lange was coming back, and now I already know it'll be great.

I can't wait to watch the first two episodes, they're recorded on my DVR at home. I hope it lives up to the standards they've been advertising it as, and all I have to say is that I am beyond ready.

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.

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.
