Plant Lives Matter

We know your crimes.

You know, I get the whole vegan diet and movement-- you want to eat healthier not only to avoid unnecessary health complications but also to spare the lives of abused farm animals. That's all fine and dandy.

But, there's something wrong when you decide to spare the lives of our livestock. If you're not eating animal products, then you're most certainly eating plants. What kind of sick joke are you playing here? Just because you think you're doing the animals of the world a favor by eating them means you can go right ahead and eat the world's plants? Do you not realize how many plant lives are lost because of your selfishness? I've never met a group of more thoughtless people than you.

You call yourselves ethical, yet you think killing plants for our consumption is ethical? I call bullshit.

Plant lives matter. They've mattered since the founding of America over 10,000 years ago, which is technically when the world and humanity as we know it came into existence. They keep our air clean, our springs and summers beautiful, and there's even a science dedicated to these delicate creatures. It's called botany.

But I don't think you knew that. You plant murderer. That's right--you're a plant murderer. How does it feel to eat a sunflower's seeds? They could've become wonderful little sunflowers had you not eaten them. Or how about those pumpkins? I'm sure you know what I'm talking about. Every Halloween murderers like you carve designs into them and call it "tradition." You call mutilation a tradition? Hannibal Lecter would be very proud of you.

It's time to submit to your crimes against nature. Cease your consumption of any and all plants, and you will truly be what you think you are.

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?

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.
