Some Things You Should Know Before Dating Me

Might as well just get it all out in the open now. Better now than later.

I came across this video and began to wonder what I would want anyone who was interested in dating me to know about me. Not that I’m avidly looking for anyone at the moment, nor do I even have the time to invest in a relationship right now, but to all my future boyfriend(s), I wish you the best of luck.

Hopefully, we both come out unscathed and alive.

1. I’m still a kid at heart.

Specifically, one who loves to swing.

2. I have a serious case of RBF.

I’m kind of self-conscious about it because obviously, no one wants to come off as a scary bitch for no reason, but when I’m working or just really deep in thought, the RBF takes over. If I look like I might want to kill someone, I probably don’t. But in some cases, I might. Perhaps it’s in your best interest that you tread with caution.

3. I absolutely hate drying the dishes.

I do not mind washing them or putting them away once they are dried, but I simply cannot reason with the idea of deliberately drying the dishes off of the dish rack when air can simply fulfill that role for me. So, either you deal with a Tetris of dishes piled beside the sink, or you can dry them, and I will gladly put them away.

4. Don’t fight my battles for me.

Believe it or not, there’s quite a bit of fight in me. However, I do expect you to have my back.

5. I am extremely competitive.

Whether it’s playing a board game or in real life, I strive to win. And I will do everything in my power to win. Except cheat, of course.

6. You may oftentimes find me in a room with the lights on, the TV blaring and me, sleeping soundlessly.

Do not worry about my surroundings, I am probably having the best sleep of my life. But the second you fall asleep, and if you’re a snorer, start snoring, I will wake up and poke you until you stop. Because even though I may be able to sleep through almost anything, I cannot stand the sound of snoring. Side note, when I am tired, I tend to snore. And you’re in luck because I am tired a lot.

7. Some days I am going to want to be alone.

As much as we may enjoy each other’s company, I am not going to lie, at times, I may feel like you are suffocating me. And I genuinely mean it when I say it is not you, it’s me. I need my alone time. People tend to be surprised by this especially given my outgoing personality, but I value doing things alone. Please don’t be offended and no, I am not mad at you. I just need to be alone.

8. Cheat on me, and you’re dead to me.

No excuses. Definitely no second chances. You’re out.

9. My family means a lot to me, so you have to get along with my family and my family has to like you.

It’s not that I do not trust my own intuition, but the thing is, my family probably knows me better than I know myself. So, if they happen to think that you are not good for me or you guys do not get along, well then, there is going to be a problem.

10. I’m a Gemini, so I may or may not have already changed my mind on half of these.

If I haven’t, I probably will.

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.

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.

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.
