You're Not Sorry
huffpost.com

People come and go. Friends, significant others, and even sometimes family. It can hurt when someone you once trusted and actually cared for, or maybe even loved one way or another, betrays you. I've been there, we've all been there.

From time to time, new people come into my life and it's nice for awhile because it's nice to know someone new. The part that really hurts is when that person turns out to be everything you hoped they wouldn't be.

Learning to trust someone after being screwed over time after time can be hard. If the new people you let in turn out to be everything you were afraid of, let them go. If they try to come back, they'll probably do everything all over.

They're not sorry. They may say they're sorry, but most likely they're not. Most times people say sorry just to feel better about themselves and have a sense of a clear conscience. Not always, but most times.

Don't let people walk all over you and/or use you. I'm the first to admit, I let the wrong people in, one after another. It's not fun. If someone in your life hurts you, betrays you, lets you down, or makes you feel as if you're the problem and something is wrong with you, say goodbye to that person. They're not worth it.

Good people with good hearts are always the ones to get screwed over, just remember that. Those with cruel and empty hearts, are selfish and don't care about anyone but themselves. It sucks.

Unfortunately, just recently I had to go through this again and now I'm paying the consequences. I had to say goodbye and remove myself from an unhealthy environment and friendship. It honestly doesn't feel good. Many people will tell me, it's not my fault and that I did nothing wrong. I don't believe that. I give and I give, but everything is looked over and taken for granted. I guess I learned my lesson, again.

All in all, don't let other people make you feel worthless and terrible, because you're not. The people who do make you feel this type of way just are not truly happy with their self, so they try to make those around them feel bad. They may not even know that they're doing this.

Just remember, they're not sorry and they most likely never will be. Learn to let go and move on, because you did nothing wrong.

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.
