“I love bread”- Oprah Winfrey

I watched this commercial while sitting in the TV room of my sorority house one night before dinner and it spoke to me. It spoke to everyone sitting in the room. We all love bread.

“Bread is the reason my thighs look like this” really should have been my senior quote in high school but I naively chose the sappy and nostalgic route instead. I now realize the mistake I made.

Bread is one of the most versatile foods, along with potatoes, which in my opinion also deserve their own article. There is white bread, potato bread, wheat bread, rye bread, there's probably a whole world of different kinds of breads I haven't even heard of yet. My favorite of all bread products are bagels. If I were to go on 'My Strange Addiction', it would most certainly be for my appreciation of bagels. There is literally no faster way to get me out of bed in the morning than telling me that there are bagels in the kitchen. My pantry in my college apartment currently has two loaves of bread, two bags of bagels, English muffins and box of croutons.

Those people who don't eat the bread at restaurants who think they're being "healthy" are just weak minded folk and natural selection is coming for them.

Over summer I wrote an article about giving up carbs and it was an awful experience I would recommend to no one, because not only was I crabby 24/7 but I wasn't allowed to eat bread and that will change your life for the worse. After the aforementioned experiment was over, or when I cut it off early because I missed bread too much, I had a new found appreciation for what I had given up.

So yes, I will go to Panera and get a bread bowl AND bread as my side. Yes, at Cheesecake Factory the waitress will bring over three baskets of bread before the meal even comes out. Yes, at Einstein Bagels I get two bagels in between classes. Yes, when there is cornbread at my sorority house, I eat no less than three pieces. And no, I do not care.

This was 100% an entire article describing my love for bread and I had a wonderful time writing it.

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.
