Super Bowl Sunday. A major event for not only the fans of the two teams playing but for everyone who loves the sport of football and a day of friends and family. It is a day to show pride for your home team and celebrate a hopeful victory.

Being from Boston, I have always felt the rush of pride and excitement for not only the Patriots but all of our sports teams. Family and friends gather around the 60-inch plasma screen TV, pre-ordered wings and bud-light beers in hand, the fans are ready to watch. We scream, we chant, we feel the anxiety for the players, we feel for the players as they take their hits, we take them; as we watch the game from miles away it's like we are at the stadium. We can only imagine being in Minneapolis on this cold, winter Sunday night, the dedicated ones attend, spending thousands of dollars- to be there to witness it all.

Even if you don't consider yourself from New England, you find yourself watching, millions find themselves watching. This one game between two rivals brings together so many people who wouldn't usually have much in common. It is so exciting to be with your friends and family to not only watch the game but to enjoy your time together. It is a day of rival, comradery and most importantly a fun day of football with friends. No matter who won, it was still a blast to spend the entire day celebrating the best two teams in the country!

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.
