This Is The Car You Should Be Obsessed With

This article will be the most unabashed display of car porn you've ever seen. Be warned.

I don't think there was ever a better-looking car than the 1967 Chevrolet Impala.

And before you ask, no, it isn't because I'm a huge Supernatural fan. I've seen the show, and it's decent, but the best thing it ever did was introduce this car to me.

Some people watch it for Dean and/or Sam; I watch it (albeit occasionally) for their kick-ass chrome-trimmed gloss-black Impala with the greatest lines a car has ever had. Even in white, she still looks good.

It's as though I've caught some kind of fever; I look up listings for them on classic car websites. Some of them are in incredible shape and go for prices into the $50,000's. This number makes my heart do a small palpitation every time. I don't think any car is worth that much. Especially in a color like this:

Still, somehow, it's not as heinous as it would be on any other vehicle. My dad routinely sends me listings on Bring A Trailer, which doesn't help anything, but they're so beautiful.....

The 60's had some awesome cars in general. The long, lean look some had was eye-catching and used enough gas to power the Hindenburg (though perhaps briefly). Look at this brick red 1960 Cadillac Eldorado Biarritz.

There's enough room in this thing's trunk to fit a family of five, not to mention ample room in the backseat for your beehive hairdo. My mom is partial to the 60's Corvette's, though in my personal opinion they look like they have spider eyes for headlights.


See? Spider eyes.

The later 60's Ford Mustangs were great too. If you want a car that truly lives up to the name "muscle car," that would be the one for you. There aren't many more masculine, tough-looking cars out there.


However, I will only truly be happy when I have a '67 Impala. Hopefully it will be in black, with a red interior and no rot in the window seals. I wonder if I'm too old for Santa...

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.
