Planet: 27-J-8A, PURPLE SECTOR (EARTH)

MISSION DETAIL: COUNCIL TO SEND TWO MISSIONARIES ON EXPLORATORY MISSION TO “EARTH” TO JUDGE READINESS FOR PLANET'S ADMISSION INTO STELLAR COUNCIL. EACH MISSIONARY TO BE DROPPED OFF IN RANDOM LOCATION AND EXTRACTED TEN [10] EARTH DAYS LATER.

End of Mission Report

We, Gackwob Backwad of planet Omgggggggg, Green Sector, and Bizbo Bizbi of planet Ahhhhh, Yellow Sector, formally submit our end-of-mission report to the Stellar Council. Thank you for using your Glorious Time to review this document.

Obviously, as you can tell by our individual reports, we had very different experiences of Planet Earth. This speaks to the disparities of the human species and, more broadly, the universe itself. Initial scans did not indicate such discrepancies; we were unprepared.

Our mission revealed both exceptional kindness and unimaginable horror: from selflessness to murder, humans were revealed to be a nonuniform, volatile species. We did not judge the character and merit of these two distinct populations as lesser or worse; we firmly believe that, given the correct situation and enough time, those at war could come to peace, and those at peace could go to war. They are the same people, only nurtured differently.

Thus, we believe that some point, all humans could become the compassionate people that I, Bizbo Bizbi, observed. This will take time. Given the primitive and indiscriminate nature of their weaponry, they may never make it. But we both see the potential in the human race. We see their capacity for emotional intelligence, which is a scarcity in this galaxy. Such empathy is sorely needed, and eventually, there will be a spot for them on the Stellar Council. But they have a lot of work to do before that.

We recommend returning in 1000 stellar years for reevaluation. An extermination squad should be sent in for the snakes, though. Thank you for reading, great Council-members, and thank you for your Glorious Time.

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.
