Have you ever gone to the gym and wanted to be able to have fun not working on the machines? There is a fun class that everyone can do which is Zumba!

Zumba is a form of exercise where you do not have to have any dance experience to do it. It is a big dance party where you can invite your friends and have a good time. There are many different types of classes that you can take with it. You can find Zumba at a gym or at any location. The class varies in times in the morning afternoon or evening which is convenient for everyone to be at. In the Zumba class there are various types of dance that are incorporated with it such as jazz, hip hop, salsa and many others. At gyms they are part of the combination when you get the membership. It is not expensive and it varies on the instructor too.

I go to Zumba all the time because it is fun and great stress reliever as well. When I first did Zumba I did not know what to expect but now I do. Sometimes Zumba instructors use the same routine and music every week and add a song. I enjoy the music that the different instructors use that I go to. When you are at Zumba, make sure to take water breaks when needed. Just have fun with it and if you mess up on the moves don't worry about it. All different instructors use different music and different movements. Some of the movements are the same but if you go every week you will know the routines inside and out. Most places you can drop in and try it out to see if Zumba is right for you.

Zumba is not for everyone but if you like it stick to it. I am a dancer and the moves come to me easy which really cool. The first time I went to Zumba I did not know the moves but it came to me the following week I went. I try to do Zumba at least once a week so that I can keep it up. If you love Zumba so much you can get certified by going on the website and signing up for the location that is closer to you. This summer I am getting certified as a Zumba instructor next month and I am excited. I have heard that it's so much fun but I will be sore after the long day of training but it's worth it. I already have been asked to sub a class when needed when I am certified. Once I am certified I will know what to expect and go from there. When I am certified it is always great to go to other instructors classes to support them too. It is always nice to have friends like that and to show them maybe some of your moves. I am so glad that I have the opportunity to do this because I love doing it so much. Zumba will be my side job too which is a nice thing to have.

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.
