Ladies, It's Time To Stop Using Tinder Because You're Bored

In today's society, everyone has either heard or used Tinder at least once. Some people use it like they're reading the morning paper while others stay away from it. The reason why I'm bringing this up is because many millennial individuals turn to Tinder when they broke up with their significant other, got into a fight, or simply because of boredom.The dating pool on Tinder usually consists of overly-horny individuals who are looking for a "good-time," some who are even married, others who wish to see where things go or those who want to get into a relationship.

My issue is that there are people who use Tinder as a way to cope with breakups or because they are lonely or in a mood.

The thing is that I can't tell anyone who can and can't use the app, but please make it clear what you're looking for through the app. If you want a relationship, then just state it. If you want a hook-up, let that person know beforehand. If you go on Tinder due to boredom, while the person talking to you may be looking for something serious, please don't waste their time. I know people who use Tinder as their go-to as soon as they end a relationship and want someone to replace. I will tell you this firsthand that this is a bad idea. This will make you start comparing the new person to your ex and you will miss your ex more. On top of that, you end up wasting the other person's time.

Who knows, there are many good things that can happen when boredom strikes, but once feelings are involved, it may be a bad idea for you and the people you meet on Tinder.

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.

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.
