She got responses from students all across the country. One anonymous student said they felt "pressure to go to the best college and live up to everyone's expectations of me."

I really loved this article! Odyssey has countless articles about fall fashion, but almost 99% of them are for women. Not only did Enrique give his advice, he took photos of actual outfits he put together! One print stands out to him for the fall season.

"Plaid in the fall is always the way to go whether it from flannels as a layering piece to plaid pants for a more festive and vibrant look."

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.
