Pugs, you either love them or hate them. I grew up with them and just have a penchant for the breed. After my pug Sammy passed in 2012, I was heartbroken. Then Buster came barreling into my life and it was truly just meant to be. He's a literal angel and can brighten anyone's day with his silly antics and his classic "pug head tilt".

About Buster:

  • Age: 8-years-old
  • Weight: 18 pounds of wrinkles
  • Where he was born: Unknown - he's a rescue
  • Favorite Food: Canned pumpkin
  • Current Location: Raleigh, North Carolina
  • Nicknames: Bushy, Squish, Angelito, Buster Lou, Bubushka, Busta Rhymes
  • Best Friend: His dog sister Gracie, cat sister Sophie, and anyone who will give him a back scratch
  • Favorite toy: A stuffed stingray that's bigger than his head


5 Random Facts About Buster:

1. Since he lives in a multilingual household, Buster understands Spanish and English commands and phrases.
2. He is epileptic and has had a few seizures. I sometimes wonder if this is why his previous owners gave him up.
3. Like a true pug, Buster is really laid back and goes with the flow. He doesn't mind riding in a kayak and has swam in a pool. Not a big fan of snow though.
4. He could probably sleep in any position. Sometimes he likes to sleep on his back with his legs sprawled open.
5. Buster is kind of tall for a pug. He used to get a lot of comments about his height, especially when he was younger.


3 Places He Loves To Go With His Human:

1. The nearby parks and lakes with walking trails.

2. The bed or couch to sleep.

3. The groomers for a nail trim and a face wrinkle cleaning.

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.

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.

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.
