Our 20's are some of the best years of our lives. In our 20's we find ourselves and hopefully become the people we wish to be for the rest of our lives. It's a time to explore and try new things. It's a time to figure out who your best self is. We move to new cities, develop new relationships, and learn to spend our time wisely but also spontaneously. As the year pass by we try to cross things off our "to-do" lists in the hopes that we can say we did our twenties the right way.

36. Invest in people, and not things

37. Take more pictures

38. Read the newspaper more often

39. Get rid of a bad habit

40. Become more comfortable with public speaking

42. Learn the art of cocktail making

43. Travel the coast of California

44. Run a half marathon

45. Finish writing in a journal from cover to cover

46. Prioritize what is important to you, and put those things first

47. Perfect the "beach waves" hairstyle

48. Make a new friend

49. Stop planning and start living in the moment

50. Do you.

Whether these 50 things suit you or you have a list of your own, take your 20s and make them one of the best decades of your life.

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.

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.

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.
