Who cares about diamonds?

If You Give A Girl A Dog
Alli Michal Huff

Let's face it. Dogs are a girl's best friend. We would rather have a dog over a diamond any day. Basically, getting a dog is life changing. We will never know what we did to deserve dogs, but we sure are glad we did it. Here are some things that will happen if you give a girl a dog.

She will miss him/her when they are gone.

We have to leave our fur babies behind for various reasons. Some of us have to leave for school, work or vacation. No matter the reason, we miss them so bad and think about them frequently. We are not above face timing our dog or asking for pictures to be sent to us.

She will be overprotective.

When it comes to dogs we gain motherly instincts. We will do anything to protect them. We will even spoil them sometimes. We will not let anyone hurt them or saying anything mean about them. They are kind of like our children with wet noses.

She will use him/her for therapeutic reasons.

When we are down we will use them as our outlet. There are few things that snuggling a dog cannot fix. Also, dogs always know. They know when you are sick or sad. They also know if someone is not nice. You can count on them to fix your problems and to listen.

She will want to take him/her everywhere.

We cannot help it because they make everything better. There really is no line when it comes to what we will want to bring our dog to. We would take them to work or school if we could.

She will want more.

Is there even such a thing as too many puppies? Like anything that is good we will want more. We will want all the dogs so we can have all the loving and adventures.

Half of her food will mysteriously dissapear.

Half of our food is already claimed to our dogs. We will sneak things under the table, ask for a doggy bag, or just flat out prepare them a meal. We know food is the way to their heart.

She will subject herself and her possessions to being a chew toy.

We know that are things are always at risk to being chewed on and a lot of our things have chew marks on them. It just shows character. We are mainly happy if they are not chewing on us.

She will get so much love.

We will get some of the best love in the world. We will see what it is like to show and receive unconditional love.

She wont stop talking about him/her.

She will always try to show everyone pictures of the dog. She will always find a way to bring it up in conversation and she loves when people ask her about it.

They will share many laughs.

Dogs are goofy and can be quite clumsy. They are such characters. They will have tons of laughs together.

They will be best friends forever.

She will always think of her dog as her best friend. She will always know that they have each others back and love each others company.

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.
