I'm Using This Summer To Finally Relax And Be Stress Free

I never thought I would actually be counting down the days until I get to leave college and go home. I love being in college, don't get me wrong. My boyfriend is here, my friends are here, and I have the independence I've always wanted. On the other hand, though, I am so ready to be home.

You don't really hear about the bad things about college, like the seemingly endless homework assignments and how much time really goes into studying for the hard ass exams. I never really knew how to study before coming to college and I'm not even sure if I actually know how to study now, but I'm definitely finding out as I go.

I am so beyond ready to be done with this semester... ready to not be stressed all the time and to finally relax with my friends back home and spend time with my family, though it's crazy to me that when I come back to the school in the fall I'll be a sophomore (how did that happen???)

I'm seriously planning on having the best summer ever. I refuse to sit around at home doing nothing all day everyday, not when there's so much to do! For winter break I had an excuse, it's cold and gross out and I just want to stay in my comfy bed and not move. Summer, though, that just won't be acceptable.

Go to the beach.

I am so planning on going on day trips to the beach with my friends. Going in the water or just hanging out with some friends with some good music is going to be so relaxing and I am so ready.

Hang by the pool.

Me and my friends are constantly at the pool, playing some dumb games where someone always gets hurt, or just chilling and tanning.

Relax and watch that show you keep putting off.

Yes, there are going to be those days where you will lay in bed, but let's try to not make to too often.

I have so much planned to do when I get home, but most of all, I AM READY TO DO NOTHING!! Doesn't that sound amazing?

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.
