I'll be honest. I probably have the worst sense of direction out of everyone you know. It's kind of embarrassing. Even if I've been to a destination every day of my life, I still most likely won't be able to guide you there. It's actually amazing that I'm not lost and wandering some random desert right now. To everyone who has a horrible sense of direction, here's to you. We will survive this.

1. You cannot move without your GPS


2. Left and right > the compass.

Well said, Patrick.


3. When people give you directions, you're like, "So can you repeat that...like 20 more times?"

The pressure to get somewhere is real.


4. It terrifies you when people ask for directions.


Well, you go in that general direction toward that vague direction and you'll be there in no time!


5. You can't even find your way in your own hometown



6. You know to leave two hours early because you know you'll get lost.

I ask this often.


7. You've cursed your GPS for leading you in circles, but know you can't live without her.


I've lost count of the times my dear GPS has led me astray.


8. Halfway through the semester, you'll still find yourself going to the wrong floor.


I know my class is on the first floor and I still find myself on the third floor. #special.


9. "Just go straight" is music to your ears.


I actually do a little happy dance inside!


10. When everything looks the same...


11. When people say mazes are fun.


Yeah...no, #itsmylife


12. If you go the wrong direction, you'll just pretend you meant to go that way on purpose to avoid the embarrassment.


Says the princess who turned her mother into a bear...#judgmental.


13. People who have a sense of direction are magic to you.

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.
