Why I HATE Movie Theaters

They're repulsive.

I hate movie theaters. I really hate them. I find them disgusting and raunchy. I know that most people love movie theaters but some people don't. Movie theaters are great in an essence, but just think of all the disgusting things that are there.

1. The food tastes like cardboard.

The only way that you can make the popcorn taste good is if you drown it in liquified butter. It's not even butter, it's an oil that has an artificial butter flavor. So you're just eating chemicals and trans fat. The nachos that you can get tastes stale, and the "cheese" to go alongside with it tastes like the cheese that you can squeeze out of a bottle. The only good thing would be the candy or the fountain drinks.

2. The movie seats are never clean.

Have you ever noticed that before you sit down you have to wipe it down with your hands or a napkin because there's popcorn on the seat? Well let me tell you...the seats are never cleaned, even the leather ones. They are just replaced every 10-15 years. So when you think about it...you could easily get sick, or even lice because lice love warmth, and would love to jump in your hair. Remember that next time.

3. Teenagers are nasty.

We've all been there during our teen years, where we go to the movies to make out, because our parents don't know that we've started kissing boys/girls at the age of 13. Well just going off experience, and not me of course but seeing it, teenagers also like to have sex in these seats. Especially the ones in the back corners of the dark theater. So next time if you hear something NOT coming from the movie, I would recommend not turning around.

4. Tickets are expensive now.

Tickets used to cost maybe 10 dollars when I was about 12 years old. Now that I am 18, they cost around 15 to 20 dollars for ONE TICKET. That's crazy. Especially for a college student. I would rather save that money for food, and wait until the movie is on Netflix, Hulu, or out in the stores. It's just not worth the cost, including when you add the "food".

I hope that this might help you take a better look at movie theaters the next time you want to go. I know it's gross but it's sadly the truth. Just remember that it is too expensive and not worth your time or money.

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.
