Guys, this is a serious question. Now, you know us girls talk. We all share everything with each other and when I say everything I mean, EVERYTHING.

So it should come as no surprise to you that we talk about the boys that we go on dates with or that are interested in us.

Now, among our “community,” if you will, we have found that men are very interested in the beginning, texting all the time, you make plans a few times and then BAM you drop off the face of the earth. We then wonder what happened. Was that the extent of your effort?

We then start reaching out and while we get responses we are often turned down for a variety of reasons. We keep reaching out because you seem like you still want to hang out but don’t make time to hang out with us... what are we to do?

We try so hard to gain the attention of the people we are interested in only to get nothing back. We ask to make plans only to be shot down again and again. We were not the ones who initiated conversation, and we do get that it is a two way street, but oh man, it is hard to figure out what the next move should be on our side if we are having a hard time reading the situation.

Dating, if you can even call it that, is so difficult and confusing nowadays. Who knows what is going on and honestly, until there's a ring on the horizon we will all probably be confused till that point.

Can we all just make a pact to be a little more old school, talk a little more, and put the energy in where it needs to be? That'd be cool.

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.

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.
