The truth in crime.

Everyone With A Pulse Should Watch True Crime Videos

Though sometimes the truth of our world can be disturbing and scary, it is still the truth.

True crime YouTubers bring to the platform knowledge and awareness, that we could all use. They bring to light cases that haven't gotten the media attention that they should have or cases that have been forgotten. They give those who feel like they don't have a chance, a chance.

I stumbled upon true crime about two years ago and I have never stopped watching since. Although it sparks my interests for obvious reasons, like the fact that I am a criminal justice major, I realized that it was more than just an interesting topic. It was a topic that NEEDED to be talked about. We don't think of missing people unless we see a post while scrolling through twitter or facebook. Some of us may repost others may not, but we normally forget about it in a matter of seconds. And then what happens when those faces are forgotten?

Families start to lose hope. Cases grow cold with time. Cases are never solved. So what can we do to prevent this from happening? We can spread awareness of them. No matter if it's a missing person's case or an unsolved murder, people's cases still need to be heard. And that's what true crime YouTubers do.

They start a conversation. They get people interested in cases from a different perspective. They work closely with campaigns that work on finding people. They offer theories. They ask their viewers for theories on cases. Though sometimes people may feel that theories should not be put out there, it's what can get the conversation started. It's what could make someone's name stick.

Not only does it bring light to cases, but it also brings awareness to crime. It makes it more real to everyone. It proves that there is a possibility of things like this ACTUALLY happening. This means that you become more aware of what to do and what not to do. You pay attention to the world around you. Though this isn't made to scare you, it can induce the kind of fear that makes you more protective of yourself and others.

So I suggest you go watch a true crime video. I suggest you hear cases and become more knowledgeable. I think a little true crime is what everyone needs. To help make a change, to get cases heard, and to find the answers that are needed.

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
