1. Hamilton


Hamilton is my number one because it is amazing and Lin Manuel Miranda is a god. ‘Nough said.
My Shot: This song is my number one because it is the first hamilton song I learned all the words to, so it will forever be my favorite.
Say No To This: A completely underrated song. How can you not love this song?
Yorktown: I live for this song for this reason, and this reason only " Hercules Mulligan, I need no introduction. When you knock me down I get the f**k back up again!”

2. Mamma Mia!


Mamma Mia! Is my second because I saw this ABBA-inspired musical 6 times in my 18 years of life before it left Broadway. This musical will always be in my heart.
Mamma Mia: ICONIC.
Our Last summer: this song forces you to reminisce about life
Dancing Queen: If this song doesn’t get you singing and dancing, you need help.

3. Dear Evan Hansen


Have yet to see this one live, but the music is amazing and the musical turns a dark and deep topic into something amazingly beautiful.
You Will Be Found: This song reminds me that I am not alone and it’s okay to not be okay.
Sincerely, Me: This song is a breath of fresh air, it gives us some comedic relief.
If I Could Tell Her: Iconic love song, never fails to make me smile.

4. Hairspray


Another musical that should still be on the big stage. Like Mamma Mia! I saw this musical numerous times. The story line and musical number made me want to get up and sing every time.
You Can’t Stop The Beat: This song takes every underestimated character and puts them in the spotlight for a minute.
Without Love: This song shows that girls, no matter their looks, can get the guy.
I Can Hear The Bells: This song is the song i think of when I get the butterflies.

5. Grease


Grease In my opinion had a good run. It was time to go but, Nonetheless I love the music.
Grease Lightning: No comment needed. It's super catchy.
Summer Nights: We all sing super high on the sandy parts… Just admit it.
We Go Together: Another one that makes you want to get up and dance.

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.

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.
