If you are an avid animal lover like I am, you have definitely seen articles about companies that test their products on animals, and to no surprise, most of the products that I used to use were tested on animals and it made me sick to my stomach to see videos or pictures of rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, mice, dogs, cats and primates-like monkeys, baboons and chimpanzees, being tested on and then killed afterwards because they are no longer "useful" or could develop more problems.

Not all of these animals are used for makeup testing, but they are also used for medical, neurological and a multitude of another testing. If you have ever wondered about if the products you use on a daily basis, test on animals here is the list for you, and then I will give you another list of alternatives. There is really no way to tell whether something is tested on animals or not since the FDA does not regulate “cruelty-free” or “not tested on animals” packaging labels, so companies can put this on their packaging even if the product or ingredients have been tested on animals.

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.

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.
