Joe Biden Is Officially The Democratic Candidate, So Remember To Go Out And Vote
media.giphy.com

As of yesterday at the Democratic National Convention, Joe Biden is officially the Democratic candidate for the 2020 election. Many people have mixed feelings about Biden and I share those concerns as well. But, I hold one pivotal truth above all else: he knows how to run a country. He has the experience, as a Delaware Senator and as a Vice President for eight years. There are a lot of people that wanted Bernie Sanders and I agree. Sanders' policies align most closely with my beliefs as well. But I know that he is not the answer. Please DO NOT write his name in. The same thing happened in 2016 and look at the monster in the White House now. Don't take away votes from Joe Biden. Yes, we are #settlingforbiden.

For example, if we want to increase healthcare coverage for everyone, especially during a pandemic, Biden is the answer. He has vowed to uphold the Affordable Care Act (ObamaCare).

This is just one example, but here's Biden's official platform. Check it out for yourself.

Simply put, Biden is the answer because Trump is not.

We are not just voting for Joe Biden. We are voting for Kamala Harris as our next VP. We are voting for his cabinet that can effectuate real change. We are voting for the next Supreme Court Justice when a seat becomes vacated. Joe Biden will put Democrats in office and it will swing our country back to the center, instead of the right taking control during the Trump administration.

If we want to restore the presidency and America's standing in the world, because let's face it, the country is the laughingstock of the world, Joe Biden is the answer on November 4th.

Register to vote here, if you haven't already.

Vote early. Vote for Biden. Lives are at stake.

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:

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.
