Okay, so 2017 may not have been your year, or maybe the fall semester wasn't your favorite, but now is the time for a fresh start. Here is the definitive list of things (you plan) to do, starting January 1st:

1. Spend less money on takeout

Dining hall food definitely doesn't always satisfy your cravings but ordering delivery seriously will drain your bank account, especially when you're already paying thousands for a meal plan.

2. Wake up for all your early classes

Trust me, I am not a morning person so I know how it feels when you are abruptly woken up by your alarm, but you're missing valuable information when you sleep through you're 8:30 am class.

3. Get to bed earlier

Nobody likes a roommate that is up until 4 am with their desk lamp on, and I'm sure you don't like being up that late either. So do everyone a favor and SLEEP.

4. Go to the library more often

Even if your library is super far away, it's really helpful to study somewhere surrounded by quiet, motivated students so you can get the best work out of yourself.

5. Wash your sheets at least every 2 weeks

Sheets get like seriously dirty, so even if it's a pain in the butt to get that fitted sheet back on the mattress, just do it.

6. Hit the gym

This is pretty much everyone's new year's resolution, but seriously, college can get really stressful and working out has been proven to relieve some of that.

7. Call home more often

Keep those promises you made to your parents and keep them in the loop with a phone call or a text.

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.
