1. Dallas Farmers Market

If you have ever been to a farmers' market, you have never been to one like this. I went for the first time a few days ago, and it is definitely a must for anyone visiting the Dallas area. It's so big, it is spread over two different buildings! There is something for everyone here - from antique stores to restaurants to all the fruit you could ever wish for.

2. The Museum of Memories

Looking for a good photo opportunity? Look no further. The Museum of Memories is an interactive art gallery that gives you all the creative and nostalgic vibes. This exhibit was created by artist Steffi Lynn to take you back to the 90s, and make you feel like a kid again. It consists of a variety of interactive installations and murals for you to explore. My personal favorite was the cloud-themed room. Curious? Go there and check it out for yourself!

3. Deep Ellum

The lively Deep Ellum district is known for its vibrant street murals, art galleries, concert venues, and restaurants. If you are in the mood for a fun and quirky place, go check it out! This is part of what makes Dallas such a fun place to explore - you never know what you might find!

4. The Dallas Arboretum and Botanical Garden

The Dallas Arboretum is a 66-acre botanical garden located in East Dallas on the shore of White Rock Lake. It preserves both history and nature within its breathtaking views. It has beautiful art installations, waterfalls, and, of course, lots of flowers! They hold special events every week, from concerts to cooking classes. It is definitely a place that the whole family will enjoy. If you get lucky, you might see some rabbits hopping around.

5. Reunion Tower

This one is still on my bucket list. The Reunion Tower is certainly an iconic Dallas landmark. It offers a 360-degree view of the downtown Dallas skyline and has two restaurants for you to enjoy great food while you enjoy a great view. I've been told the best time to visit is during sunset, so you can get the photos of the beautiful colors reflecting off the buildings. It is a long elevator ride though, but the view is definitely worth the trip.

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:

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
