The iPhone X, not "x" but rather the roman numeral X, has been one of the top selling devices during Q4 of 2017 and is showing strong promise in sales during Q1 of 2018. Named in honor of 10 years of iPhone, the newest flagship phone from Apple packs some pretty insane features (queue in Samsung users stating they've had these features for years).

Rocking a six-core Intel processor, the A11 Bionic chip is like nothing seen on an iPhone. Powered by iOS 11, the iPhone X delivers high-end speed and performance that is unmatched. Meet the new Neural Engine; housed within the A11 chip, this dual-core chip processes all AI and machine learning tasks and is the driving force behind features such as face ID and Animoji.


Now the iPhone X removes the home button and touch-ID, one of the most beloved features of the iPhone, but can I say the home button is so last year. With gestures, the fluidity of the iPhone is unlike any devices on the market. Face ID is so fast and sometimes I feel as though there isn't even a password in my phone; yep, it's that fast. Now you can unlock your phone with a glance.

With a virtually bezel-less display, the iPhone X looks and feel incredible. Not to mention the OLED Super Retina display that complements the device perfectly providing a crisp picture quality.

To nobody's surprise, the iPhone X is rocking some incredible power when it comes to the dual camera system, now with optical image stabilization, on the back and even the front-facing camera. It’s been a staple that iPhone has the greatest camera but get ready for front facing portrait mode. Take selfies like never before.

With this phone you will get standard features like IP67 water resistant rating and some new ones including wireless charging, which is super convenient; I haven't plugged in my phone since I got it. The new dual L shaped battery, which is due to the new stacked logic board, gives you all-day battery life. Seriously, all day.

Paired with an amazing operating system iOS 11, iPhone X is one of the best, if not the best, device on the market and is 100 percent worth the money

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.
