Are you ready for school?

Most high schools are getting ready to start classes for the new year. There are some students especially those in high school who think school is boring or unnecessary and some don’t. Yes, sitting in a desk all day and learning can be boring, but in the end it will be worth it.

If you are in high school, enjoy it! It does not last forever. Trust me, I know I am about to start my seinor year of high school and I have mixed emotions about it. In May I graduate high school and start a new chapter of my life, the real world. Which means going to work, paying bills, going to college, etc. I am not sure if I am ready for that.

Remember whatever you do in high school can follow you and into your future.

1. Most employers require a high school diploma and a copy of your transcript. In some colleges they require a certain grade point average to even attend. So it is very important that you make sure you are doing your best in all of your classes.

2. Employers and even colleges will see your attendance record If you can not show up and be on time for school, then how can you be trusted to show up on time for work? In college attendance is strict. In most colleges you have two chances and after that you are removed from the course. Make sure you try to be on time at all times. One of my teachers have the saying “ if you are on time you are late, if you are early you’re on time”. Punctuality is always important, most defiantly in the professional world

Enjoy your high school years. It will go by faster than you expect. Believe me, I’m there. Get involved and make it count and at the end you will thank your teachers nd all of those that helped you along the way.

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.

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.
