Clichés Can Actually Make Sense As You Get Older

This time, not even a year ago,

I had a vision of being dead. I loved it.

I thought that's what I wanted.

I snapchatted a friend who always helped me realize I didn't want that. He responded and that's when I realized he wasn't the answer I needed.

I texted another and he told me some high spirited things. I couldn't keep the tears from rolling off my face.

I just had a vision of Christmas time next year being a hairstylist, doing someone's wedding and getting to be part of their big day.

Even though it doesn't seem like a massive part, it is.

Looking forward to that to see if it comes true is what really is keeping me here.

Every day is a new adventure, there are a million cliches I can blurt out in the span of a second, but some of them actually make sense.

When you get to a certain point in your life, think of one of the cliches, say it to yourself, and you might understand it in a new light as you've never seen before.

One day it'll just hit you, you'll think of advice to give and that cliche pops in, and it just fits.

You'll understand it when you get there, and if you don't understand it yet, you're not there.

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.
