Vlogging. Vlogs. Vlogger.

When I tell people I have/want to start vlogging, I usually get asked: What exactly is a vlog/vlogger?

Well, let's talk about the easiest comparison, bloggers.

When you think of a blogger, the stereotype is a woman, usually young and sometimes a mom, who talks at length about a specific topic, or genre. For example, there are mommy bloggers, food blogs, sorority blogs, fitness blogs, etc. They may have recipes, craft ideas, life stories...anything and everything.

At the core, vloggers do the same thing. But video is a different medium than simple words on a page. You visually see the emotion when someone tells a story, or has an experience, or is cooking, or is interacting with an object. You can't imagine their tone, their thoughts at the time, their expressions, because everything is right there. All of that person is right there.

The most appealing thing about vloggers is that you get to watch someone else's life, front row, first seat. You get to see the mundane things in their days, their emotional breakdowns, their happiest moments, what they ate that day...you get it.

But the other super cool thing about vloggers is that they become storytellers. They present you their life they way they view it. What other mediums can you say that you can experience someone else's life the way they see it?

So, what is a vlogger? Check out some of these incredible story tellers, and their crazy lives.

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.
