What Not To Do On Tinder

And guys call girls basic?

Oh the great world of Tinder is very interesting. I joined Tinder this year to just look at cute guys at Purdue. Since I have been on Tinder I have noticed a couple of things that drive girls crazy.

1. Dog pictures

I love dogs a lot. I love dogs more than humans but, I'm not going to swipe right just because you have a dog. I would rather see more pictures of you than your dog because I'm looking for a guy not a dog.

2. Stop taking creepy selfies

I always thought guys could take selfies but, after joining Tinder I was very wrong. Come on guys! It's not that hard to hold the camera at a good angle. I don't want to see up your noise or the top of your head. It really isn't that hard I promise.

3. Don't put girls in your pictures

You're trying to get a girl the worst thing you can do is have pictures with other girls. Us girls don't like any type of competition and any girl that is pretty is automatically a threat.

4. Stop with the muscle pictures

Yes we like guys with good bodies but muscle pictures are just weird. It makes it seem like you're only obsessed with your body and it can be intimidating. Like I am not fit and if someone is super buff I don't swipe right.

5. Having all group pictures

Don't get me wrong I like seeing group pictures because it shows us that you have friends but, having all group pictures is a no no. I will not take the time to figure out who is who.

6. Starting conversation with basic gifs

The Joey from Friends gifs is a classic but I'm so tired of seeing them. Try to find gifs that will make us laugh and want to respond to you.

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.
