Why Girls Need Girls
Jalyn Cox

There's nothing wrong with the girl who says, "I have only guy friends because girls are too much drama." There is nothing wrong with having guy friends, but if you believe that girls are "too much" drama, you just need to find some new girl friends. There are just some things you just can't talk about with your "guy friends".

Everyone needs to appreciate your girlfriends and hold them close. There will be good and bad days, but at the end of the day, the real good girlfriends will be around through it all. You need people you can depend on. You need people that you can trust with things you don't even trust yourself with. You need those people that can make you smile on your worst days, and listen to you tell the same damn story over and over again until you feel better. You need people that will be there for you through it all.

I mean there will be people you fall astray from, but the people who really matter will always be there and around when you need them most. They will be your number one fan and motivator. They will push you to be the very best you can be, and watch you grow from the very beginning to end.

Girls need girls because you need a gang of warriors on your side, and who better than the girls that are by your side through it all. You need people that are there for you because the moment you have no one is the moment you'll fall apart. You need a strong web of people who will protect, listen, and guard you. Also when it isn't you against the world, it's nice to have friends that talk to you and keep it real. They have no reason to impress you, they aren't trying to get anything out of you. The compliments they bless you with is real, and comes from an honest genuine palce. The words of wisdom they give you are covered with nothing of truth and past experiences. If they are true they are there for you. They are like your family without the contract of forcing them to stay by your side.

The best feeling in the world is knowing people are there for you, and the second best feeling in the world is being there for the people you care about.

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.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
