Spring Break is finally approaching. Midterms are finishing up, the homework and lectures are about to cease, and you can't wait to finally feel the sweet release of a week long vacation. Maybe you're going away to some tropical spring break destination, in which case I'm super jealous, but if you are just going home for the week to relax and rest up for the end of the semester, 'One Day At A Time' has the perfect moments to describe the most iconic parts of heading to your hometown for Spring Break.

Taking the last midterm before break, you know, the one you definitely didn't study enough for.


Walking out of your final lecture before break.

Arriving at home and immediately handing all your dirty laundry to the closest relative.


Reuniting with your mom.


Trying to plan a meet up with your whole squad and realizing only half of you have the same spring break.


Driving by Grandma's house and she already has your favorite treats ready.

When people have the audacity to ask you school related questions, knowing you are on break.

Picking up a few shifts at work over the week.

Linking up with your best friend after months of not seeing them.

Avoiding people from high school at the grocery store.

Getting your group of friends together again.

Waking up in the morning after getting a somewhat full night of sleep and actually feeling well rested.



Nails done, eyebrows done, hair done.

Realizing you are going to have to return to school on Monday.


How ever wild, relaxing, or messy your spring break is, I hope it is a great one! Also, if you're looking for a great show to watch on Netflix, 'One Day At A Time' is awesome. It's funny (if you didn't already figure that out), but also deals with real issues like PTSD, coming out, and the life of a single parent. With only two seasons with about twelve thirty minute episodes, this show is a perfect spring break binge!

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.

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. 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.
