My face has a mind of its own.

How I’m feeling is always written all over my face and I know I’m not the only one. It can be the ultimate struggle, at times. If you too have an over-expressive face, then you know exactly what I’m talking about when I say…

1. Your eyebrows practically have a mind of their own

They're almost permanently raised up leading you to seriously worry about forehead wrinkles.

2. There's no hiding when you're disgusted

Please keep chewing with your mouth open or licking the food off of your fingers or making those loud chewing sounds, I just love it.

3. Everyone knows when you're annoyed

Keep interrupting me, it's my favorite thing. I love it. LOVE IT.

4. Opening gifts in front of others is one of your biggest struggles

I really love the 15th bottle of lotion you've purchased for me this year. It's great. Just what I needed.

5. There's no hiding when you're bored out of your mind

You'd rather be anywhere else or doing anything else and we all know it.

6. When someone says something ignorant or offensive and you sit there like:

You're already struggling to bite back your tongue but you're not responsible for the look you're giving them.

7. When someone asks for your opinion and you don't even have to speak for them to know exactly how you're feeling

"Do you like my new shoes?" Yeah...they're great.

8. Your facial expressions have definitely gotten you in trouble

Chances are you've heard the phrases "Did you have something to add?" or "You have five seconds to fix your face" more times than you can count.

9. Trying not to react when you see someone do something embarrassing is the ultimate struggle

10. People oftentimes think you're judging them

My eyes are just naturally this wide, I promise.

11. You're constantly being asked what's wrong

12. Because how you're feeling is written all over your face and there's nothing you can do about it.

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.
