11 Airplane Dont's

As more and more people travel during the summer, airplanes get more crowded. Airplanes can be comfortable, that is if you are paying for first class seats. For all the people who have to sit in coach, this is a list of things that you should not do and hopefully, you do not encounter them either.

1. Talking at the highest possible volume you can.

Let's be real no one wants to hear what you have to say on an airplane. Everyone wants to listen to music, watch TV or read a book. You are annoying everyone around you by talking out loud so please just don't.

2. Kicking or nudging the seat in front of you.

The seat is mine, it is not yours. Yes, you may have access to the back of it but that doesn't give you the right to touch it in any way. I understand an occasional bump but as soon as it happens more than twice you will be receiving a glare from me.

3. Push the seat back as far as possible.

We get it your seat can recline, congratulations so can everyone else's. Just because you recline it, it doesn't mean you can make it more comfortable. It changes nothing so if you could just do it a little or not at all that would be lovely.

4. Keep getting up to use the bathroom when sitting in a window seat.


People do not want to continuously get up for you. Make the bathroom trip once or twice if it is a long fight.

5. Babies...

Though they can be cute, they're annoying. Where are you taking your baby? It's a baby leave them at home and take a nice vacation alone.

6. Bringing smelly food onboard.

I understand, you're hungry and airplane food sucks. Can't you eat before the flight? No one wants to smell your food especially because we can't eat it.

7. Out loud bodily functions.

Farting, burping, anything along the lines of gross should not be done out loud during flight. Go to the bathroom-- it is that simple.

8. Opening the window during a night flight

Just because it's dark outside doesn't mean that it still doesn't shine a light in. Close the window!

9. Lights on during night flight.

Literally just turn it off. You're annoying.

10. Lack of deodorant.

You know you're going to be on a plane for hours around a bunch of people. We don't want to smell you, so please be hygienic.

11. Overhead bin hoggers.

Don't overstuff your bag. Don't put both bags you brought on in the bins. There is limited space so take what's yours and no more.

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.
