If you are anything like me, you have ordered the same drink from Starbucks for as long as you can remember. Whether it is a coffee or refresher, it's a safe choice you know you will enjoy. No surprising flavors or bursts of sweetness, just normal and comfortable.

With quarantine keeping us in a box, let's break out of the figurative one that we are stuck in when we repeat the same drink cycle. How will we ever know if we enjoy Pumpkin Spice or Peppermint Mocha when we decide to stay with Caramel? Let's switch it up and inspire some new favorites!

Here are four tasty drinks that you can order or use as inspiration for a whole new creation.

1. Pink Drink with Sweet Cream

I was hesitant to try this as I am not a huge fan of sweet things. However, I fell in love with this combo. The consistency and taste both reminded me of a strawberry yogurt.

2. Iced Chai Latte with Almond Milk and Vanilla Sweet Cream Foam

I'm not a big tea drinker whatsoever, but in one of my moments of feeling adventurous, I ordered this drink. It has easily become one of my top favorites in a matter of a few sips. The foam is sweet enough to dial down the spicy cinnamon taste that you would normally capture.

3. Mango Dragon Fruit Refresher with Peach Juice

Now this drink is on the sweeter side because of substituting the water for peach juice. The refreshing and clean taste you get makes the sweetness ratio worth it. Plus the purplish color that the drink is, is a bonus.

4. Cold Brew with Sweet Cream and Dark Cocoa Almond Milk Foam

When I'm in desperate need of caffeine, this is my go to. I originally started drinking it without the sweet cream, but after deciding to add it in one day I won't go back. The thickness of the sweet cream cold brew mixed with the smooth chocolate foam is the perfect match.

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.

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.
