While growing up, we would see our favorite actors, actresses, and musicians on TV or in movies. We would see them smiling in front of the cameras at events, wearing the latest fashion trends, having the nicest houses, and vehicles. Of course, we thought they had the perfect lives. They could get whatever they wanted, because they had a lot of money. Unfortunately, it seems like times have not changed much, with thinking that celebrities must have the perfect lives. Especially, with social media around.

With social media, it is much easier for celebrities to show their fans what is going on in their lives, on a daily basis.

A positive reason, for this is celebrities are able to let their fans know, about upcoming projects they are working on. A negative reason, for this is rumors about celebrities are able to spread quicker. A big example I can think of is celebrities, and relationships with their significant others. By being famous, it is tough to be able to do normal activities, such as going to the grocery store, or going to the gym without the paparazzi taking pictures of you. Or fans asking for autographs, and to take pictures with you. It is tough to be able to get any privacy. But that comes with the job, of being well known.

In our society, we put celebrities on a pedestal, and when articles come out about them going through personal issues we get surprised. We often think they do not go through hard times. That could not be further from the truth. They go through relationship issues, feel insecure about themselves, and can feel lonely at times like people who live normal lives.

We need to remember that while the lifestyle celebrities live may seem awesome, they do not get those luxuries for free. They have to work for them.

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
