5 Signs He's Not The One For You

Early in a relationship is the best time to start learning about your potential significant other. You find out what you have in common and what you don't. You'll find out things you love and some you tolerate, but there may be some things you just shouldn't put up with. Here are a few warnings that this guy is definitely not the one for you.

1. He's hung up on an ex

He may be hiding it by saying they're just friends, or maybe they are just friends. But if he talks to her as much as or more than you, that's super sus. Like I'm all about amicable separations, but know where to draw the line.

2. How he treats his parents

You can learn a lot about a person by how they treat other people. But one good measure to judge upon is how a guy treats his parents. When you think about all our parents do for us, we should all be grateful. So if a guy treats his mom and dad with disrespect, that might be a red flag that he's not a great dude.

3. He doesn't take school/work seriously

I'm not saying everybody should have their shit figured out. That's a lot to ask. But if a guy doesn't have any goals or aspirations for his future and how he's going to live his life, you may want to take a step back. If he doesn't have himself figured out, he can hardly handle a relationship with another person.

4. He ghosts you regularly with no explanation

Alright, ghosting is so irritating for many reasons, but if it's fairly early in a relationship and homeboy can't find the time to call or shoot you a text for a day even to tell you that he's going to be busy, he's weak and natural selection is coming for him.

5. He's obviously not loyal

So maybe it's early and you guys aren't exclusive yet, but if he's seeing or talking to lots of other girls regularly and you're looking for something more serious, he's probably not the guy you're looking for.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
