I'm shamelessly on Twitter 24/7. I have "liked" tens of thousands of tweets, and my favorite part is finding people who write about how I'm feeling when I don't even know how to explain it myself. A lot of those tweets are about not feeling good enough or not reacting in a positive way to whatever life throws at you. Twitter has thousands of tweets about the best way to approach self-love-- like learning how to be good on your own, recognizing your self-worth, and knowing what to look for in a good relationship. If you're looking for a new mindset in 2019, these 25 tweets can help you think of yourself in a new, loving way.

1. Know how to be good with being alone

I stumbled upon this when I was on youtube: mac miller on relationships/breakups. RIP to such a beautiful soul :(💛 https://t.co/mhglqAH4QP

"Sometimes we stick around in these things for the idea of what it once was, of what love is, of that you want love in your life. But at this point in time it has nothing to do with him anymore and everything to do with you. So regardless if he is the love of your life, if he is the one, if he is the end to the Disney movie... Regardless this is your time that you have to grow just with you. You have the opportunity to shit on the world right now." Watch the full video for Mac's amazing insight on thriving when alone. We miss you dude.

9. Love and live well

In the end, only three things matter: how much you loved, how gently you lived, and how gracefully you let go of things not meant for you.

This spring semester I'm taking 5 classes equalling to 18 credits, 2 classes of which are honors. It's perfect for me because it leaves less time for overthinking and more work to do to fill up any free time.

It sucks that feelings can change overnight, but if you're focused on yourself rather than their varying feelings won't matter as much.

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.

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.
