Trump's Smashed Walk Of Fame Star Could Be A Reflection Of How Damaging His Twitter Presence Is

So news has just broken that Donald Trump's star on the Walk of Fame was just smashed to pieces. While I do think that is a little extreme, I think that the focus shouldn't be on the star getting smashed but it should be focused on Trump himself. What is he doing for our country and what issues is he fixing/not fixing with the messages he is sending out through social media?

I think that we all have our different opinions on politics, but I do think that we can all agree that we want this country as a whole to be cleaner, nicer, and happier. Sometimes we like to point the finger at higher powers like Trump but really at times, we are the issue when it comes to social media. Are we the ones saying nice things on social media, are we retweeting what we should be retweeting? Taking a step back and realize what you are about to retweet or send out into the world is what we all should be doing. It all starts with us before it can start with Trump and his administration.

Now you are probably wondering how my thoughts tie back to Trump's star. I think that social media continues to play a part with Trump being president. I understand that it is his duty to tweet out his condolences when a tragedy strikes but at the same point if he is frustrated, it is best he not lash out on social media because then other people in society can see it. At that point, it is a bad thing when the tweet/post bounces back off because it becomes a reflection of him.

Now I currently don't know many details of why this person did damage to the star, but it is my guess that they saw something online during the span of Trump's run so far and they did not believe in what our president was trying to say about our country. But I do think that this person took it a little too far to damage the star, there are other ways you can lash out these days. I hope next time they reconsider their actions and I hope they can see past the issues that they have with Trump.

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.

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.
