In case you haven’t started watching this season's Bachelor starring the tall, dark, and handsome Ben Higgins, it's not to late to start. He is a gorgeous, small-town boy who grew up in Indiana. He is respectful, amazing with kids (as he proved last season when he had to explain reproduction to a bunch of elementary school kids) and the perfect guy to bring home to mom and dad. He is athletic, funny, respectful and wants a family. Ben has told us that he believes that he is unlovable, but after watching him on the Bachelor, I think I speak for all girls across the nation when I say that he is 100% lovable. If this season doesn’t work out for him, women everywhere will celebrate.

My favorite thing about Ben though is that at one point, he was this guy…

Yes, that awkward young guy on the left in the bright blue shirt is Ben Higgins. This is him pre-blossomed as a college student at Indiana University. This image reminds us all that he wasn't always this gorgeous, untouchable bachelor.

Ben Higgins was once one of us, living on ramen and wearing shower shoes.

It wasn't that long ago that he was a typical student in college going to sorority formals and chugging beer. This college photo of Ben will give girls everywhere hope! Hold on to the nice guys, ladies, because they could turn out to be the Ben Higgins of the group.

We wish you the best of luck, Ben, and hope you find your future wife. However, if it doesn’t work out…I’m always available. I’ll be in Indiana during Valentines Day, see you there.

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.
