Why I love Ellen DeGeneres
ellentv.com

What can I say? I love Ellen DeGeneres. She is truly amazing. She speaks what is on her mind, is brave beyond words, and embraces who she is. Throughout her entire life, Ellen has put smiles on the faces of anyone she has encountered, especially since the airing of her talk show "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in 2003. Each hour long episode provides viewers with happiness, laughter and joy, all while teaching important lessons. Without a doubt, Ellen is incredible, and here are just a few of the multitude of reasons why.

She's open about her sexuality

Not only is it amazing that Ellen is open about being gay, but it is also amazing that she came out publicly in 1997, a time not as accepting as today.

She excites the next generation

Meet Brielle. The four year old who knows the entire periodic table

She's always dancing

No matter the episode, you can always find Ellen dancing

She makes you laugh

Who else would be dancing with her audience while wearing a mermaid costume

And she laughs too


She embraces diversity

Each and every day she teaches valuable lessons

She helps those in need

For example, here's Talia. A cancer patient, make up lover and now an honorary Covergirl, thanks to Ellen

She talks about uncomfortable topics

And makes people more able to talk about them through humor

She's inspirational

Just one of the many examples of Ellen teaching us to be better people

She's herself

It's simply Ellen, no fake personality, just Ellen

Her love for Portia

Relationship goals

She doesn't let others hold her back from speaking her mind

No one's stopping her

She loves what she does

There's no doubt about it

Ellen, keep inspiring the world while filling it with laughter and love

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
