Watch Married at First Sight on Lifetime
Previously.TV

Married at First Sight (US) is currently on its sixth season. It originally aired on the A&E network but has moved onto Lifetime. I haven't watched all the seasons but this is the third season that I'm watching. I can't speak for the spinoffs because I haven't watched them but the seasons I've watched are set in different cities. The first season I watched was season three and that was based in Atlanta. Georgia.

I've never watched anything like Married at First Sight. It is not just any ordinary dating show. Two strangers get married. Yes, complete strangers! They do not met until their wedding day. How does this all happen? Well, there is a team of relationship experts who pair up the couples based on trying to closely match each participant with what they are asking for in a partner. The show follows the three couples. They get married, go on their honeymoon (which tends to be very awkward due to their situation) and then they go home and live together for eight weeks. After that, they decide if they want to get married or divorced.

I don't have much hope in the show to be honest because not many of the couples out of all these seasons have lasted which isn't much of a surprise. It's still fun to watch though because to even think people would sign up for this experience is crazy to me! There have been couples who have agreed to stay married on the final episode but then we hear months later that they have filed for divorce.

I decided to watch the current season because it is in Boston! It's my hometown so I had to! It's so weird to see your own city on tv but awesome at the same time. At this point of the season, the honeymoons have just ended and next week they will begin to live with each other. This will be interesting because all of the couples have some issues that will definitely be hard to face once they begin to live together. Our couples this season are Molly and Jonathan, Jaclyn and Ryan, and Shawniece and Jephte. Jonathan sacrificed his job to be on the show, Jaclyn's last boyfriend passed away a little over a year ago (not sure if she should be on the show because of this), and Jephte admits that it is hard for him to open up and it's going to take him awhile to be comfortable (but you agreed to... nevermind). With this little background, I'm sure you're curious to see how this will unfold just like I am! If you feel I didn't give too much away, you should definitely tune in and watch "Married at First Sight" every Tuesday night on Lifetime! It's definitely an interesting twist on dating shows if you're into that.

Thoughts? Would you try this experiment of getting married at first sight? Many of the participants reasons for trying the experiment is because they have had so many failed relationships and are willing to try something as crazy as this concept for a chance at love.

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:

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.
