An Open Letter to Ellen Degeneres

Dear Ellen,

I don't really know where to begin but to simply tell you thank you for being you. You bring out the definition of what everyday people should be: happy, funny, and living life to it fullest. All three of these are probably just a little in site into the kind of person you are. You are definitely one special human being. It has always been a dream of mine to meet you or someday be apart of your show, but let's face it... I'm not musically or artistically talented, a crazy athlete or someone with a huge life story. I guess for now I'll have to deal with the fact that I thought it was the coolest thing to come to Warner Brother's Studio, when I took my trip to California back in May, and be within feet of your studio (and where you park, but shh my tour guide said to keep that a secret!). It broke my heart I wouldn't get to see your show, but it was worth the try. But If I ever did get to meet you I'd thank you for 5 particular things.

1)Thank you for being the upmost positive person ever. It's crazy how you never let a soul rain on your parade and always finding a way to smile or crack a joke out of it. You inspire me and many other's to do the same and radiate that confidence you have.

2) Oh my gosh, you are absolutely hilarious. I don't think there's ever been a time where I've watched your show without crying laughing. You know exactly how to make each interview or segment entertaining for all ages and most importantly don't do the same old gossip talk show. So thank you for that as well.

3) The way you always look for good in people is ridiculous. I absolutely love how when someone comes on your show your don't point out their mistakes but instead you pull the good stuff about them and have a good laugh. I wish more people took this look on people because we're all human and make mistakes. So thank you for showing the world that it's okay to make mistakes but everyone has good in them.

4) Your generosity is out of this world. You're always lending a hand to help anyone and everyone. Whether it's charity, or just treating your fans right, you always know what to do to help. If a charity needs something, you're there. If a fan needs you, you're there even faster. Whatever the case may be, thank you for showing people what it's like to give and not want anything back.

5) Most importantly, thanks for being you Ellen. Your confidence, your humor, your dance moves, and your awesome show. You rock my world, and maybe one day I'll be lucky enough to sit in your audience.

Thanks for being the perfect example and inspiration for what everyday people should be.

Peace & Love,

One of your biggest fans

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.
