Yes, shockingly there are people out there that don't like the beach. I know this may come as the biggest surprise you have heard since Angelina and Brad Pitt getting a divorce, but these people exist. As a fair skinned, redhead there are obvious signs why the beach and I have as I would like to call it a "Love/Hate Relationship". To my bronze goddess skinned friends, this opposition may be hard for you to wrap your head around. Here are some reasons why people don't LOVE the beach.

1. SUNBURNS


If you are the person that can't leave the house without SPF 75 you definitely feel a major connection with this reasoning. Yes, the beach is great at the moment, but when you're taking a bath in aloe that night your relationship with the beach maybe as Ross from Friends so eloquently puts it "ON A BREAK!'

2. Sand... Everywhere


The moment that your toes meet the white smooth sand, it is the next best thing to walking on a cloud. Yet at the end of a sunny day, you feel like you're covered from head to toe in sand. It's in your bags, shoes, car, ears, nails, mouth, etc. Sand can be found everywhere for what seems like weeks. The worst feeling is when a gust of wind comes blowing through and you get a whole mouth load filled with, you guessed it, SAND.

3. Seagulls


In the movie Finding Nemo, the legendary scene that we all couldn't get enough of as kids was the "mine, Mine, MINE" part where the flock of seagulls are all coming. The annoying creatures are swarming all around you at the beach. Their squawks at high-frequency pitches do not make the experience more worthwhile either. As the Seagulls fly around all you can do is pray that one of them doesn't decide to take a poop right above your head.

4. Salt Water


The Ocean is so beautiful to admire from afar and take in all the beauty it has to offer. Swimming in salt water is a different story within itself. When you swim in the ocean if you open your eyes underwater, they will burn from the salt. Then when you exit the salty water, your whole body is covered from head to toe in crimpy salt.

5. Sea Animals


Jellyfish, sharks, crabs, and seaweed all sea animals that many people have a legitimately large fear or disdain of. This can make the non-beach people steer farther away from the beach then they already try to do. It can cause them to not want to walk along the beach or get in the water. This causes the whole day at the beach to be a "bust."

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. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
