Morgan Freeman's Voice Is Finally A GPS Setting

The moment we have all been waiting for is finally here (and we didn't even know that we were waiting for it):

Are you sick of hearing a boring, annoying, robot voice giving you directions? Do you wish there was a cooler voice guiding you on your journey? Well, we are all in luck. Everyone's favorite voice on the planet is now a GPS setting. Have you ever said to yourself, "I wish Morgan Freeman could narrate my entire life?" So have I, but this is the next best thing. The fairly new app called "Waze," which is owned by Google, has recently added a new voice setting and it is none other than Morgan Freeman's. Apparently, his voice was the most requested addition to the navigation app by far, and this is not a surprise. He has literally played God...twice.

Just imagine the most soothing and wise sounding voice in the world guiding you to the nearest gas station or McDonald's. Not only does Morgan Freeman just tell you which turns to make, many of his phrases include inspirational messages too. One phrase included in the app is: "You've arrived. It's been my honor and duty to see you through this mission." That would make an average trip to Walmart seem way more interesting. And the best part is, all of this is totally free! All you have to do to get it is go to the app store and download "Waze" (for free). Once it has downloaded, you go to the settings icon shaped like a gear, click sound, then voice language, then Morgan Freeman, and you are ready to go.

Unfortunately, this amazing feature is not a permanent one. It is rumored that Morgan Freeman's voice is on "Waze" temporarily as an ad campaign for his role in the new movie: "London Has Fallen." The movie comes out on March 4th, and Morgan is playing the Vice President of the United States. It is a clever promoting strategy, but a very sad one. The exact date of when Freeman's voice will be pulled from the app is unknown, so you should hurry up and download Waze now before it is too late! Hopefully, they decide to extend the feature because of its popularity, but even if they don't, Waze still has other cool characters and voices to choose from. Supposedly, Arnold Schwarzenegger's voice will be making an appearance in the near future as well.

"Is there a movie I think I should have won an Oscar for? Yeah. All of them."

Yeah, we think so too, Morgan.

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.
