These New Days of the Week are Magic

You'll wonder why no one thought of these sooner.

These New Days of the Week are Magic

The days of the week: a mundane concept we think nothing much of after learning what they are when we go to elementary school. They have been Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday for as long as most of us have known English. (And if you knew them by any other names previously, who are you???)

Of course, there is always room for improvement. As we all strive for our best, I believe that we should do the same for the names for our very own days of the week. The idea for what is about to follow after this paragraph popped up while I was reading the contents of a group chat I'm in, and I can tell you now that I think I might be onto something here, so buckle up and open your eyes as I lay some info down in what I think the new days of the week should be called. *drum roll*

1. "Monday" will be "Taco Day-Before-Tuesday".

It's only logical because Tuesday comes afterwards, duhh. From here we establish our precedence for the rest of the week.

2. "Tuesday" will be "Taco Tuesday".

Self-explanatory. This is where it all began.

3. "Wednesday" will be "Taco Day-After-Tuesday".

This also follows the basic logic that Wednesday comes after Tuesday, naturally.

4. "Thursday" will be "Taco Thursday".

Because it's nice to have that symmetry within the weekdays. It's just pretty.

5. "Friday" will be "Fiesta del Taco".

Because of course we have to celebrate the end of the week, and why not do it in celebration

6. "Saturday" will be "Siesta del Taco".

Our well-deserved rest day, of course. It can also be called "Taco Day" for short.

7. "Sunday" will be "The Lord's Taco Day".

A taco is one of those all-good things in the world in all its purity. As such, this is the one day of the week where we worship our one lord: the humble-but-mighty taco.

And if you have any trouble remembering the days, here is a quick chart I quickly jotted down as soon as the idea shone upon me at around 8pm PST (and which is only showing up sideways for some reason):

What do you think of this new proposition of mine? Share if you agree, and to let the world know of this new idea that should be spread across the world!!

All hail tacos~

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.
