To All The Girls Who Never Felt Like They Mattered

We are all they same, if I'm important, so are you!

To All The Girls Who Never Felt Like They Mattered

I know that for a couple of my article I have written about boys out there, some that who had inspired me, but mostly some that have hurt me or made me realized different things in my life.

But now, I'm experiencing something new, something foreign to myself that I'm not even sure how to describe it. I met a guy, and at first, it was random, I met him by chance with some of the people I knew, he asked for my Snapchat, I gave it to him and that was that. The next day he snapped me and asked me to go out on a date with him, and at first I was confused, I couldn't even remember the last time I went on a date, so I was a little skeptical about it, but eventually, I said yes.

So, I went on a date with this guy, and it's been so long, I don't even remember how it's supposed to be like, but so far, everything's been good, nothing has been awkward or something like that so I'm giving it a chance. We finish the food, we leave the restaurant, and I know I had a great time, I know I hadn't enjoyed someone's company as much as I had his.

This all felt weird, but at the same time, it felt natural, it felt like it was something I needed to experience and go through to realize the things I been missing.

Now, it's been a couple of weeks since that day, and I'm still talking to him, he still makes me feel better about myself, and most importantly he makes me feel special. Like I'm someone worthy of the attention I'm receiving, and this is something new from how I used to feel. It has taken me a while to accept it, but slowly, I'm getting use it to, use to it in the way that doesn't make me feel uncomfortable with it, and instead I learn to accept it, use to it in the sense that I don't question it anymore, and instead I allow it to boost my confidence up, because now I know I'm better than what I thought I could be.

With all of this going on, it has opened my mind to new possibilities that I never thought possible. So, I'm telling all the girls out there, if I could find someone that made me feel special, so can you. I'm not saying I immediately fell in love with a guy out there, what I'm saying is that I'm allowing myself to feel something again, something that makes me feel special, and something that makes me feel like I matter.

So, I'm speaking to all the girls out there, if I could do it, so can you. Do not tell yourself what you can and can't do, simply allow yourself to feel it.

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.
