Yeah, I'm *That* Girl Who Wears Norts, Birks And Giant Shirts To Class, So What?

When it comes to getting ready for class, I have a giant stack of a mixture of Disney and my sorority T-shirts that I pluck one off the top from and match my bottoms accordingly. Now, I love the process of getting dolled up, putting makeup on, and picking a trendy outfit to wear but for class, I cannot be bothered.

It's not because I'm lazy or was late and just rolled out of bed (OK, maybe that happens sometimes) it's because I CAN. I don't wear cute outfits to class and don't do my full beat of makeup for class because I CAN. Classes are stressful enough, I need to be able to rub my face and eyes and hide behind my huge T-shirts and sweatshirts when things get tough.

Oh, and I'm sure as hell not dressing up just because there is a guy who I think is cute in one of my classes. Honestly, if "Chad" doesn't think I look like an 11/10 and adorable in my potato sack outfit with legs then he doesn't deserve me at my bad and boujee best. Also, what a better way to meet a guy and have him ask you out when you look like a trash can. That way he knows what to expect and doesn't expect a full beat every day. (Pro tip: who cares what a guy thinks? You live your best life for you and only you.)

But really, class isn't a fashion show so don't feel like you have to dress up all the time to impress some guy. (Unless you have a presentation or speech in class then please dress presentably for your professor.) Wearing a cute uncomfortable outfit will only make me uncomfortable in class, then distract me in class, then I can't pay attention and focus. I don't dress like 75 percent of college girls to fit in, I dress like them because they have the right idea. It's 2018 people, we are in college so let people dress how they want.

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.
