A Reaction To The Clown Sightings
WKYT

Recently there have been sightings of clowns all over the nation that have been frightening people. From stories that people have told while they are out and about to the Facebook posts, people all around the nation are freaking out. While I am not saying that they should not be concerned because if a clown popped out of nowhere near me, i would most likey scream bloody murder and run. What I am saying is that people should take precautions when they go out and to stop blowing this out of proportion.

While i realize these clowns are concerning and should be stopped, a few things to keep in mind. These clown sightings started close to the beginning of October, and we all know that Halloween is this month, so one theory that i have for all of these clown sightings would be that people are just getting ready for Halloween early, because to some people, Halloween is their favorite Holiday. Now you can prove me wrong but this is one theory that i have for all of the clown sightings.

Another theory would be that people are just sick in the mind and should really seek counsling. To go around and scare people dressed up as a clown that looks like they are going to murder someone is sick. There are people that are truly afraid of clowns wether they have the normal happy face or the one that looks like they are going to kill you. By these people going around town and scaring people who are already afraid of clowns, this is causing those people to stay in their houses and live in fear even more.

A few tips in case you do run into these clowns, first tip would be to carry something like pepper spray or something to defend yourself if a clown starts coming towards you. If you are in your car and there are garbage cans or things splattered around the road blocking your way and a clown at the end, DO NOT get out of your car, just keep driving. Anotther tip would be to call all clown sightings to the police, there have been clown sightings that people have called the police and the police found the clown and arrested them. If you are the type of person to play pranks on people and think that dressing up in a clown costume and scaring people is funny, i highly suggest that you dont do it, not only could you get hurt by someone but you could get arrested. If you plan on dressing up as a clown for halloween, i suggest you find a different costume because you could be confused for the clowns that have been terrorizing people and you will either get arrested or hurt by someone.

While these clown sightings are concering and frighting, dont let them stop you from doing your daily routines, carry around mase or something to protect yourself if you come across these clowns and dont go out alone, go in groups of people. And if you do happen to run into one of these clowns, call the police.

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.

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.
