Summer, As Told By Nick Miller

It's the first day of summer and you can't help but reminisce on all the good and bad times the year brought. You might have made mistakes, great memories, or just simply gotten through the year. Here are some things you'll probably be doing this summer, as told by Nick Miller.

1. First, congratulate yourself for making it out of school alive.

We can all be lazy sometimes, so give yourself a pat on the back for accomplishing something.

2. Hit the gym before it's too late.

If you're dedicated enough, you can probably lose that baby fat from college in two to three weeks.

3. ... or just don't.

I mean summer is already here, kinda too late for that perfect summer bod anyway.

4. If you're living at home, don't die of boredom.

You're stuck at home with nothing to do, so find things to do!

5. Avoid the summer fling, it will soon come to an end.

The worst is falling for someone in the summer, and having to say bye come August. It's just not worth it.

6. Connect with old high school friends.

You're in town, they're in town, why not hangout?

7. Connect with college friends.

You just can't get enough. Admit it, your college friends are your people.

8. Save up as much money as you can.

You know come school year you will need every last penny, might as well start saving now.

9. Refrain from drinking as much.

Do your liver a favor and give it a break.

10. Work on your tan.

GO OUTSIDE!

11. Don't get in the "summer slump."

Find things to do, get things done, don't just sit around. This will help you be mentally prepared to go back to school in August!

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.
