We all pretty much do everything on our phones these days. Our entire lives are on our phones. Since we all look for ways to improve our lives, here are some apps that are useful and can help you on a day-to-day basis!


1. Insight Timer

This app is an incredible meditation app. The application has many users who can put their own meditation guides on the app - which results in countless different guides to follow! One time, I was even guided by someone who lived in Ireland. It is incredibly important to meditate because it genuinely helps us to relax, and take a breather from the stresses of our daily lives.

2. Tasty

If you are always looking for recipes, then the Tasty app is the right one for you! Tasty is part of the company "Buzzfeed," and it posts quick recipe videos online. You can choose what types of foods you like or want to make, and the app will give you recipes for those choices. There are many great recipes on the app to choose from!

3. Venmo

This app is a must for everyone! When you and your friends go out to eat or do whatever, you may not have cash on you. Your friend will pay for you, and you will have to eventually pay your friend back. This app is great to pay your friends back right away and get money from people. You hook up your credit card or bank account on the app, and you pay people that you may owe money to - or you can even request money from someone who owes you.

4. WhatsApp

I am so grateful for WhatsApp because it is the best way to communicate with people that are not in the same country as you. I have friends that are living in Israel for the year, and this app is the only way I can communicate with them by text and call. On WhatsApp, you can call, text, and video call with anyone around the world. The greatest thing about WhatsApp is that it is entirely free!

5. Waze

Waze forever changed GPS. Waze is GPS app that you can download on your device. What makes Waze so great is that you can see if there is traffic, if there are security cameras nearby, if there are any police near you, etc. The app is able to put all of these features together with the help of the people that use the app. Users can input all of this information into the app to let other users know what is going on on the road.

6. Shazam

Oftentimes, I will be out in a public place and a song will come on that I really love; however, I have no way of knowing the name of the song. With this app, you are able to use your phone to discover the song and the artist! It is a great way to add more amazing music to your music playlists.

7. SeatGeek

If you are someone who loves to save money and go to concerts, then you should definitely get this app. This app has concert tickets for a discounted price. You can also get twenty dollars off if you recommend other friends to the app!

I hope you discovered a new application that you may not have known about previously!

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:

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.
