It's been a couple of years. You're certain you've found "The One," and you're just waiting for the shiny ring and those four special words: "will you marry me?" One beautiful night on a cruise ship, you turn around and there he is down on one knee holding out a ring and suddenly, a million thoughts start rushing through your head...

When you see him down on one knee...

1. "OMG this is FINALLY happening!!!"

2. "OK, look surprised!"

3. "Why am I crying? Seriously, what are these tears doing in my eyes?!"

4. "Wow, that's a big ring. I wonder how much it cost!"

5. "Yes. Yes! YES!"

Right after you say "yes"...

6. "OMG this is really happening!!"

7. "Which selfie makes my ring look shiny?"

When you tell your parents...

8. "No, I'm not pregnant!!"

9. "No, I haven't set a date yet or started planning yet!"

10. "Aw we're all going to be a family!"


When you make it "Facebook Official..."

11. "Yes, my ring is gorgeous, thank you!"

12. "I've never heard of half of these people?! My fiancé must have a lot of friends."

13. "I can't believe these people seriously just invited themselves to the wedding!"


When you're one week into the engagement...

14. "Wow, Pinterest has so many great ideas. DIY bride, here I come!"

15. "I'm going to be done planning my wedding like a month flat. This is easy!"


When you're two weeks into the engagement...

16. "That costs HOW much?!"

17. "I can't believe I haven't got everything planned yet. There's so much to think about! I don't know how to do this!"


18. When you realize none of it matters if you're marrying the person of your dreams...

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.

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.
