5 Places Everyone Should Visit At Least Once In Their Life

Everyone should travel, whether it be to just a few towns over from you or across the country, get out there and explore. When you travel, you are exposed to new cultures and new ideas that open your mind to a whole other level as you see how other people live. In this world there are some beautiful places that will leave you speechless, and everyone needs to experience these incredible destinations. Here are just five places you should should visit in your lifetime:

1. London, England

Here we have the Big Ben, the London Eye and Westminster Abby all in one area. London is home of the tube, a public transit system serving a large part of Greater London. London is also home to The Beatles album cover of Abbey Road, along with the character of Sherlock Holmes and Platform 9 and 3/4 that Harry Potter and friends jumped through to make it onto the Hogwarts Express.

2. Sydney, Australia

First of all, who wouldn't want to be in the same country that is native to the koala and the kangaroo? That in it of itself is a reason to go. Along with these cute creatures, you have the Sydney Opera House, the Royal Botanical Gardens and the Sydney Harbor Bridge.

3. Rome, Italy


Rome is one of the more romantic and historical cities of the world with endless things to do. Starting with Vatican City, which holds St. Peters Basilica and the Sistine Chapel. Rome also is very famous for the Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps and let's not forget the Colosseum. Rome doesn't just have beautiful places to see, but the food is also to die for.

4. New York City, New York

It's the city that never sleeps as it is just full of so many different kinds of people with a never ending list of places to explore. You can visit Central Park, you can see the World Trade Center monument, admire the Statue of Liberty, and the list just keeps going. You can also go to Grand Central Station and that will take you anywhere your heart desires.

5. Barcalona, Spain

This city's architecture alone is a reason to visit. Here you can see the Sagrada Famila, which is a church that was started to be built in 1882 and has yet to be finished, but still breath-taking. Park Güell is a public park system that allows you to see beautiful gardens, architecture and different parts of the city. On the coast and during the day, there is a wonderful beach that everyone can go and soak up the sun while at night the beach turns into a strip of bars and clubs that have you bumping into the early morning.

So cross these amazing places off your bucket list and get exploring!

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.

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
