A Letter to My Executive Board

Dear Executive Board,

You are probably reading this while doing paperwork, or in line at Starbucks, or maybe even in-between meetings. Thank you for all of your hard work and dedication that you put in everything you do. I can't imagine trying to balance all of the chaos in my life if I didn't have all of you by my side. You make sure that everything is perfect so I do not have to worry about anything, and you make sure that I am never (too) stressed out.

I know that some meetings might seem endless, and sometimes you don't want to sit in a room for hours discussing everything going on in our organization, but you still do it because you care about the growth of our organization. I have never met more loving and dedicated individuals, and you all make everything that we deal with worth it.

There have been so many good times with you all as an executive board. I am so happy that our first meeting lasted almost three hours because we couldn't stop talking, and I am so happy that we still hang out outside of our meetings. I love having people I can get lunch with and vent to, while also having someone to watch Netflix with until 2 AM when we don't have anything scheduled for the next day.

I know that sometimes it can get hard when we are discussing issues, but know that you all are the reason that all of the problems and issues get resolved. Without you, we would ultimately fall apart. You all are the glue that keeps this organization together. I could go on and on about each and every one of you, and how you are all individually an amazing part of the team. Each of you is unique and brings something new to the table, and I appreciate all of you and your hard work.

We fit together perfectly like a puzzle, and I believe our individuality makes us complete. Sometimes I never want our terms on the executive board to come to an end (even though sometimes I do when work gets overwhelming). Thank you again for all of your hard work towards this organization. I am lucky and blessed to have served on this team with you, and I can't wait to see what the future hold for each and every one of you.

As always,

Your teammate

19 Lessons I'll Never Forget from Growing Up In a Small Town

There have been many lessons learned.

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.
