To The Roomie That Deserves A Thank You
Lacy Frost

This is for all the college kids that live in close quarters with another person. I want to give a little recognition to my roommate and I hope you can relate.

Dear Roomie,

It's me, your crazy roommate...

I never knew that I would become so close with someone so quick (besides the whole 12 feet by 15 feet room situation)

We literally went a whole week without seeing each other and it felt weird. Thanksgiving went by quickly, but I just did not realize that I had not told you how thankful I am for you.

I'm thankful for the daily encouragement that we give each other. Whether it's just a note when I get up or a random text during the day, you are always encouraging me. I am forever grateful.

I am thankful for the random trips that turn into the best memories. Yes, most of these random trips are to get food, but we defiantly bond over food. (I will say that it is a huge plus to have a roommate that loves food just like you do!!)

I am thankful for your heart for the Lord and others. Your heart is so beautiful. You push me to the cross daily, and your actions do not go unseen.

(I could say so many inside jokes here, but none of you would understand them.)

In closing, my dad really was right when he said that I would meet my lifelong friends in college, and you have become one of those friends.

I love you, and I always will.

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.
