Being stuck in the house the past year has really had its perks but also its downfalls. Being home has really allowed me to just sit here and ponder on the idea of really wanting to get out of the house and travel. Who else wouldn't think of traveling after being in the house for so long.

But due to the pandemic and having the urge to travel and be safe, does not taking a Volkswagen van just sound fun? You wouldn't have to bother with hotels, and you could just get up and go on your own time. All I think of lately is just going to every national park and cool cities like New York City, Denver, or Seattle.

Taking a Volkswagen van has always been a dream of mine to have, not gonna lie. Any Volkswagen car in general is a dream, but for travel the van sounds like a fun experience.

My Pinterest and Tiktok are just filled with adventurers and travelers experiencing the beauties of nature. That's all I want, to be by myself and gain these new experiences of various communities, nature, and foods.

Unfortunately, at the moment, although this would be a great thing to do right now traveling in my Volkswagen van, I don't have the funds like most college students. A perk of going to these various parks during the pandemic is that I wouldn't be in distance with anyone else.

Only in my dreams though will I think of the Volkswagen van adventures, until further notice.

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.
