30 Things I Did While Waiting for Kanye's Listening Party to Actually Happen
Vanity Fair

So I consider myself a Kanye fan, but with his recent rhetoric I've been a bit more reticent to listen to anything new. Then today I found out he was exclusivly streaming a listing party for his new album at 9:00 pm on the WAV app, and scoopity poopity I was intrigued and so in! While in wait I did the following:

1. Started making some pasta.

2. Got frustrated trying to sign up for whatever WAV is.

3. Finally got in and saw a lot of N-words on the WAV chat.

4. Took a shot of whiskey.

5. Watched as the KANYE WEST LISTENING PARTY on WAV showed a lot of changing camera angles of horses. and speakers, and fires.

6. Did more shots of whiskey.

7. Questioned why I was here to begin with.

8. Realized that's why Kanye wants and that I am a pruppet.

9. Saw that as of 9:55 pm shit still hasn't started.

10. Again questioned why I am here.

11. Saw another cute shot of horses.

12. Ignored the new episode of Jersey Shore Reunion that's on in the background where Angelina comes back even though this show has been mostly horrible so far but there might be a fight, so I'm IN, but not so much, I guess.

13. Watched a bunch of people walk in front of the WAV frame.

14. Thought back to the time that K. West dropped in the Rolling Stone offices to play My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy during a meeting and cried while listening to his own album.

15. Finally ate some pasta, and because I was starved I ate too much.

16. At 10:01 I wished I could have the luxury of taking time off and hanging out with horses in order to fulfill my dream of taking time off and hanging out with horses.

17. Wondered why someone who has so much is so prepared to screw people out of so little.

18. Realized that I am willing to show up for many people who do not show up for me.

19. Wondered what kind of mental space I need to be in to continuously give my all to people while getting so little in return.

20. Started thinking it goes back to my childhood when my parents divorced, and then my father left us to shack up with a younger woman. Once he came back into my life there was an express expectation of eggshell walking. I'd have to be "good enough" to stay in his life.

21. Whatever "good enough" means.

22. As of 10:16 pm there is a close up of a fire, but it is seemingly no closer to the actual listening party.

23. Every time I see my father I think this is going to be the time that he will actually want an in-depth relationship with me. This time i am funny, pretty, and daughter enough.

24. I never am though, and will always wait.

25. It's getting really dark in Wyoming.

26. It's even darker and later in Minnesota.

27. I'm getting tired

28. He's just going to start when I tap out.

29. And I do.

30. So he does.

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.
