If you haven't seen Netflix's original "Set It Up" yet, stop what you're doing and go turn it on. It's the new classic rom-com everyone has been waiting for. In Becca's toast to her fiancé, she explains that she likes him because of all of his good qualities, yet she loves him despite all of his bad ones.

You can't love someone based on their good. A person is filled full of good and bad but you have to love both sides of them or it's not love. This is a philosophy we should all think about and evaluate whether it is for your significant other, your pet, your best friend, your siblings, your parents, anyone you care about.

You don't love someone because they have a nice body, you love them despite them going to the gym more than going to dinner with you. Here are a few of my I like you because I love you despite's for different people (and pets) to help encourage you to think of your own.

I like you because I can never be sad around you. I love you despite you never put the toilet seat down.

I like you because you're cute and cuddly. I love you despite you beg for my food.

I like you because you inspire me to do better. I love you despite you work too much. 

I like you because you're beautiful in every way. I love you despite you live too far away. 

I like you because you're my mini me. I love you despite you won't talk to me on the phone. 

I like you because you're always there for me. I love you despite your competitiveness. 

I like you because you make me laugh. I love you despite you get grumpy a lot. 

I like you because we have the best food dates. I love you despite you talk too much sometimes. 

I like you because you've never let me fall. I love you despite you tell me people are "dying to get in" the cemetery every time we pass one. 

I like you because you have the prettiest smile. I love you despite the fact you have road rage.

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.
