2018 is here and with the new year comes the desire for people to explore new places! In Athens, there are so many hidden gems and places to explore, and even after almost two years in the Classic City, I am still finding new places to go at least once a month. Here are a few of my favorite new finds that I explored and indulged in during the latter half of 2017.

1. El Cine

A cute little old fashioned movie theatre nestled in downtown Athens, this theatre shows older, classic movies for the enjoyment of many.

2. Hendershots

This trendy coffee shop and bar is new to the Athens area with outdoor seating, live music, art, and so much more.

3. Atomic Pizza

Near the famous "The Niche" dining hall, this pizza place has a cool retro vibe. Located inside an old gas station, even the old gas pumps are just outside.

4. Creature Comforts Brewing Company

A name that may not be so new to many, this Athens based brewing company offers a nice getaway for those wanting a fun afternoon with the girls, or a night out with the guys.

5. West Broad Farmer's Market

Open Saturdays 9 am - 1 pm, West Broad Farmer's Market is the perfect place to go if you're looking for a refreshing morning roaming through bouquets of flowers and fresh tasty snacks.

6. Independent Baking Company

This yummy little bakery on Lumpkin Street is family owned and know for its breakfast pastries, breads, cookies, and so much more. This is a place you can't forget.

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.

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.
