We all have that one album we just vibe to because it relates to our lives so much. Well for me right now, Dua Lipa's self-entitled album is doing just that. If you don't believe me that this album is the bomb.com, just let the lyrics do the talking, or maybe the singing.

Genesis

“This is getting serious // Tell me that it’s not the end of us.”

We all have those falling outs with close friends, and when it happens, it feels like the most devastating thing of our lives.

Lost In Your Light

“I’m addicted to your light.”

We all have that one friend that is always an optimist and offers support whenever, so when we talk to them, it’s like the sun breaking through the clouds on an overcast day.

Hotter Than Hell

“Can let me know I’m wanted // Can let me in your head // I’m not here to make you kneel // But it’s praise that I’ll get."

This song serves as a reminder that we all deserve to know where we stand with someone in a relationship, and that we will always demand we be treated correctly; it’s not controlling, just reminding the other person that we want respect over anything.

Be The One

“There is nothing that I wouldn’t do for you // Do for you, do for you // Oh, ‘cause you got inside my head.”

Sometimes we get blinded by other people, and we forget who we are because of how we feel when we’re with them. We start to put ourselves second, and this line is a wake up call.

IDGAF

“So I made my decision // Cause you made your bed, sleep in it // Play the victim and switch your position // I’m through, I’m done.”

After the wake up call in the last song, we’ve been reminded of what we’re worth and what we deserve, and are ready to move on.

Blow Your Mind (Mwah)

“I know we’ve got // Something that money can’t buy.”

There’s always those friendships in life that we’re forever thankful to have, and could never replace or imitate, and it’s always a blessing when we realize that.

Garden

“Isn’t it so clear to see // Nothing’s ever perfect in paradise // Don’t know what it’s worth ‘til you pay the price.”

It’s easy to get caught up in the fun and thrills of friendship, and forget the deep meaning of it, but when we lose it, we remember and miss about the deep connection and the support that was there under the glitter and rainbows.

No Goodbyes

“Maybe one day I can see you // We can smile and wave // And it’ll be okay.”

When we’re fighting with someone, we always only think about being okay again until we’re slapped with the reality that that may not happen for some time.

Thinking ‘Bout You

“I can’t stop thinking ‘bout you.”

There’s always that one person we can’t ever seem to get off our minds…

New Rules

“Practice makes perfect // I’m still tryna’ learn it by heart.”

We’re always trying to find ourselves and how to make ourselves a better version of us, but we forget that being better doesn’t happen all at once.

Begging

“Cause all my bones // Are begging me to beg for you.”

There’s always one person in our lives that we wish we could go back to, even when the universe tells us it’s not meant to be.

Homesick

“It’s a bittersweet feeling // Longing and I’m leaving.”

Pining after someone is never, ever healthy, but man is it easy. The hardest part is always when reality hits, and we have to move on.

Dreams

“It just got complicated, I don’t know what to do.”

There are times when we find ourselves in difficult situations and just get lost.

Room For 2

“See, everyone ain’t the same // We’re more than machines.”

Sometimes, we forget that others are people too, with feelings and reasons.

New Love

“Want somewhere to go.”

Sometimes, a simple car ride with the windows down and no destination is the medicine we need.

Bad Together

“We make a great team // With you, I’m better than I’ve ever been.”

We all have that one friend that always seems to encourage us to be our better selves.

Last Dance

“Way too soon to feel so strong // Way too young to hurt so long, I’m hurtin’ // Was it worth it?”

Living in this generation, it’s easy to get swept up and invested in one person. When things go wrong, it hurts, and we wonder where things went wrong.


If that rundown of Dua Lipa's skill with song writing didn't convince you how relatable and plain amazing this album is, I don't think there's any saving you. She's a legend, and that's all I have to say about that.

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
