It's bittersweet and definitely not a bad thing all the time. But it hurts. I know it does.

The Worst Parts Of Missing Someone

This has been on my mind, so maybe you'll relate too.

Missing someone is such a happy-sad feeling. It strengthens and humbles you in ways you won't even notice within yourself. Not a lot of people think deeply about this, so here I am bringing it to your attention.

I think the worst part about missing someone is having that strong connection taken away from you. It's an empty feeling. Your body and emotions know when a person is supposed to be around you. It's like this overwhelming feeling of happiness. Your soul gravitates toward their energy.

No one likes to have anything taken away from them that makes them feel whole inside. It doesn't make sense to me why these things happen to people. I don't know why certain people who you think are supposed to stay…..don't. Bad timing my ass.

I think the worst part about missing someone is pretending you don't. Keeping busy within your day to avoid the moments alone with your thoughts. Having to create another life that they were never in. Catching yourself up late listening to every song that makes you eager to pick up the phone and call, but having the strength to somehow put it down.

I think the worst part about missing someone is reminiscing. It's easier to make up things in your head to make you hate them, unfollow them of every social media, delete their number, but it won't help you forget. Memories of time taken for granted that went too fast. Time flies when you're with a person that makes you forget about it.

I think the worst part about missing someone is accepting that you do, even if they don't. We can't control our feelings or choose who we miss and don't, but we can come to terms with those feelings to help us move along.

Having a broken heart means it had the chance to love and missing someone isn't easy, but it doesn't mean it's forever.

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.
