Our Money's Worth Depend On Us, Not What The World Says

Whether it's fashion, food, or anything else in life, we should put our money's worth into things we enjoy and require.

Our Money's Worth Depend On Us, Not What The World Says

Money is a fiat currency we use in modern society to bring us our wants and needs. If you like Jimmy Choo's shoes, then, yes, buy Jimmy Choo shoes. But, if you don't think it's worth your time, please keep that to yourself and don't impose that judgment on others. Your taste is different from theirs, and vice versa.

They may look like a model out of a Gucci magazine, but you can stick to your local brands if you like. Just let people be as they are. Same for those who think that someone should spend more on their items. You consider a Gucci bag is your money's worth, but that doesn't imply everyone else does.

If you do talk about how designer items and whether one should invest in them, please be kind towards others and help them understand that you respectively disagree with their opinion. It's easy for all of us to say money doesn't buy taste, and that is true. The way you dress, eat, and live your daily life comes about you and your life choices. Yes, the more money you have, the more likely you are going to spend it. But, there are individuals out there who spend even without having any safety money. So, I don't think it's just money.

Yes, you may belive many people are wasting their money out of nothing, but we shouldn't impose our judgment on them. I think it's best to ask them why they do it and have a peaceful discussion if you want to explain your opinion on the subject matter.

I have two takes on this idea. My first one is that money should be put to use, depending on the owner at the moment. So girl, if you want to invest in blow dry's, go for it! It's your money, so you decide it's use to you then and there. If you want to give a large sum of it to charity, go right ahead (I will also commend you for thinking about others from time to time)!

Another thing I do suggest is if you see this as an issue overall, try what you can to solve from your side before telling others what they should do. I am a firm believer in the idea that changes start with you. Humans are known for being flawed by nature. We can't demand others to support what we believe, especially if we don't even attempt to follow it.

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.
