Bachelorette Season Is Upon Us Once Again— Is There Anything Better?

Let's do the damn thing.

Bachelorette Season Is Upon Us Once Again— Is There Anything Better?
ABC

It's that time of year when the girl who was (usually) the fan favorite but didn't get the heart of the latest bachelor steps into the spotlight and stars in her own fairy tale on The Bachelorette. For Bachelor Nation, it's time for us to go through the journey with Becca, the girl who had her heart broken on national television and handled it with complete grace.

What You Should Be Excited For

The men. Always. There's nothing better than having a little too much testosterone in a house and watching them be petty (sometimes even worse than the girls get) towards one another. Plus, who doesn't love ranking the guys and seeing the Bachelorette's reaction to the different things the men say during the opening night introductions. The drama that unfolds during The Bachelorette I think is sometimes even better than on the Bachelor.

The dates. I mean, come on, most of the dates that they send the contestants on are basically a fairy tale. I'm not saying you can't create that in your real life, but let me tell you that four years in to a relationship, I'm not getting serenaded by a famous artist after spending the day at a vineyard learning the history of expensive wine. Not that my man doesn't spoil me, but it's just not real life, literally, so why not live vicariously through it?

Becca's family during hometowns is something that I think everyone is going to be excited about. She gets chosen on The Bachelor, thinks she's getting her happy ending, gets her heart broken in front of the millions of viewers, and you think Uncle Gary isn't going to be a fiercer guard dog than he was before? I'm. So. Excited. Uncle Gary alone is going to kick some ass, and I can't wait for them to protect her even more than they did before. Regardless, it's going to be interesting to see what she carries from The Bachelor into her season of The Bachelorette.

What You Should Dread

Honestly? I think the only thing I, personally, am not excited about is hearing the phrase Let's Do The Damn Thing over and over again. Other than that, she was fantastic on Arie's season and handled everything with such poise and grace that I think she either deserves an award for her outstanding acting, or she's going to be the best damn mom in the world one day because she had patience and didn't lose it like I know most girls would have.

This season of The Bachelorette (in Chris Harrison's voice), is going to be the most dramatic season yet... Or one you don't want to miss... Or the most romantic season yet... Or 10 of the other sayings he always uses for each season.

So, Bachelor Nation, raise your glasses to Becca, and Happy Bachelorette Season!

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
