I will tell you this. If you can't give her all of you, leave now. She is a storm not many can control, but if you are the right guy for her, you wouldn't even try. She is not meant to be controlled, but only to be loved.

She'll never stay silent about your mistakes, and she will always tell you how she thinks something should be done. Remember that it's not because she is trying to criticize you or letting her ego get in the way, but because she loves you and she wants you to become a better person every day. Not for her, but for yourself.

I hope that you will compliment her. She says she hates compliments, but if she smiles when she says that, does she really?

Take her places. Let her take your hand in hers and give you the world the way she sees it because the way she sees it is pure and untouched by malice. And honest. Be honest with her. She may get frustrated by the truth, but that is because she expects better things. Do your best to give her those things. And if you mess up one too many times, she won't hesitate to leave you in her dust. Even if she did, I wouldn't hesitate to step in for her.

Give her a chance to transform you. To transform your life. And help her. Lend her your hands, your ears, your eyes. Lend her your skin so she can crawl underneath it when hers isn't enough to protect her from the demons that she battles every day. She is confident, but she is also compassionate. Her every action is orchestrated by what she believes in; being vain is something completely unfamiliar to her. Don't take advantage of this.

Instead, appreciate it and appreciate her. Your gratitude will only make her love for you grow. She will love you even on days she doesn't feel like loving herself. But first, you must love her too. Love her with an intensity so fierce it makes lightning bolts look like amateurs. Love her, because only that will prove your worth to her.

She will set the bar high for you every time. She will make her walls so high; they will start to seem insurmountable to you. And when they do, know that it is her way of offering you a choice: to get in or get out. I hope you make the right decision when this happens, but more importantly, I hope you make the decision that brings her happiness.

I have already made mine. And now I die a million deaths climbing and falling.

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.

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.
