Yes, it's a known fact that girls can be crazy at times, but we should also acknowledge the fact so can boys. We can get crazy by the smallest and biggest things, but one small issue in particular that keeps arising is the divide between couple when their boyfriend is playing Fortnite. This one word can instantly change the mood between a couple. I'll admit us girls are needy and when we aren't getting enough attention cause you're playing a dumb video game breaking down wood and stone and shooting people we might get mad at times... okay maybe a lot of the time. There are times where we probably overreact when you're playing your game, but sometimes our ragging hormones can't help it.

Like I said though, we're not the only ones who can get crazy in the relationship. Guys, it's okay to admit it, we're all human. Guys get mad at us for picking out the chick flick on movie night, or taking forever to get tour nails and toes done because he is being a little needy that day.

I hadn't seen my boyfriend in two and half months and I was only visiting him for five days before we had to wait another two and a half months. His ass thinks that it's okay for him to play Fortnite while I watch instead of us spending quality time together with the time we had he's got another thing coming his way! Wow, was my blood boiling. He will take an hour or longer to reply when I am trying to have a conversation with him is also pretty frustrating at times. That is just not okay! This will sometimes start and argument that will only last for about five minutes.

So, lets compromise. I will try and pick movies that I know we both will like and get my nails done on days that you are busy and don't need a lot of attention. You can play your game or 500 of Fortnite, but when I come to visit you or come to your house to hang out pay attention to me. When we're not together and you're playing, try texting me back faster so we can have a real conversation, learn how to multi-task. We also wouldn't mind learning how to play either, it's good bonding. I love our relationship and don't want a petty argument over a game to come in between it.

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.
