Dear Liar,

At first I thought you were going to be a great person. Well, turns out you aren't. I still remember the day we met and that's a day I can never forget even after what you have done to me. You were so kind, not to mention funny.

Every time we talked, it was a great time even if it was just one simple word. When I was having rough days you would say something just to cheer me up, and I couldn't have asked for more. You were never embarrassed of the way I was, unlike others. You wouldn't care what others said about me, you would still talk to me.

Is it possible that you are going to remain in my life forever? I think so.

The days I wouldn't see you really didn't matter because I could still see you through social media. You would always like my pictures, you would always comment something random, and all of those actions just brought smiles to my face. I would do the same thing and we just had this connection that I thought was different from others.

A year goes by and our friendship still remained as strong as ever. There were moments when we could just talk all day without being interrupted and those were the days I lived for. School came by again and I was happy to see you, but something felt different. We would still talk, but something was going on. I didn't know what was happening, but I just ignored it because you were still in my life. Months and months went by and you felt more distant.

Was it something I did?

Was it something I said?

I just don't understand what's going on and I needed answers.

I messaged you to see if you wanted to talk, but you decided to take the longest time to reply. Why? The conversations seemed to be strange, they were no longer the same. I knew that I was losing you and I didn't know what to do. There was absolutely no way to get you to talk to me, you just looked away when you saw me coming. I smiled at you, but you didn't respond the smile back. Then there was that one day when I just broke down.

I then realized that you were hurting me.

You promised me that you'd always be there for me, but it was a complete lie. You told me you wouldn't let me down, but you did. You said that you would never be embarrassed of me, but you are. You said things that I thought you would always keep, but you didn't. I then gave up. I knew you didn't want anything to do with me anymore. I still don't know what I did for this to happen, but I'm glad that you showed me your true colors. Thanks for being in my life for the shortest amount of time.

I hope you won't hurt or lie to someone else like you did to me.

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.
