If Matthew McConaughey ran for governor, I'm pretty sure the other candidates would drop out. He runs Texas? Don't believe me? Watch a Texas Football game. He pulls aside Heisman nominated players like he is the head coach and jumps into the team huddles like he is a starting player. Also, every Texan has a story about meeting him or a friend talking to him or McConaughey frequenting your favorite taco establishment. Fun fact: he is even a professor at the University of Texas. Does he have the qualifications to teach undergraduates? HECK NO! But darn what I would give to be in that class. So let's look at Fall Break like the man, the myth, and the legend himself. Alright, Alright, Alright.

1. *school starts* Oh we have a fall break?! NICE.

2. "I really should start planning...."

3. Beach? Mountains? The City? 

Giphy

So many options and so little time!

4. "ugh making plans with people is hard and expensive" 

Giphy

mood.

5. "Maybe I should just go home?"

Giphy

I do miss my dog (and my family)

6. But also a quick little vacay with the friends does sound pretty nice.... 

Giphy

7. People actually pull it together and plans are SET

Giphy

GET HYPE

8. Midterms? Don't know her. 

Giphy

School is the one thing in the way of that sweet two days off freedom. Yikes

9. Last class is over and you're ready to BOUNCE

Giphy

Or maybe you skipped the last class. No judgement.

10. Fall Break. 

Giphy

Planning is over. The trip is happening. HECK YEAH

11. Wow that was fast. 

Giphy

Before you know it you and the gang are driving back to campus. I'm not crying, you are.

12. Posting the pics on insta

Giphy

Finding the picture where everyone looks good, the background looks fun but also matches with the feed, and creating a funny yet relatable caption? A true art form.

13. Welp, now it's time to figure out Thanksgiving Break. 

Giphy

Counting. Down. The. days.

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:

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.
