10 Reasons to Love Golden Retrievers

If we can agree on one thing, it's that dogs are the best. My personal favorite kind of dog is a Golden Retriever. Between their golden fur and wagging tail, my heart just can't take it all. Here is some reasons my heart melts for Golden Retrievers.

1. Their tail

Don't try to tell me that seeing a puppy wagging its little tail because it is SO excited to see you doesn't instantly make you feel 150% better.

2. The ears

Maybe it's just me, but I love it when a pup shakes it's head or runs and their ears go all kinds of directions.

3. They are so good with families

I believe all dogs are good with families, but there is just something about the way a Golden Retriever - these dogs are on a whole other level!

4. Their patience

Much like people, some dogs have limited patience levels. But, Goldens have more patience than you could ever imagine.

5. They are playful, even as they aren't puppies

Okay, so all dogs are playful, but I just feel like these dogs are the best.

6. They are just so loveable

You can't tell me that when you look and this dog, you don't want to pick it up and take it home with you (I've been tempted many, many times but I control myself).

7. They aren't the brightest pups

I know I shouldn't call any dog stupid but just look at this. It can't handle the fact that a cracker is on its nose and then he missed his mouth.

8. They are so good with their puppies

Again, I know all dogs are but this is about Golden Retrievers, not all dogs. But just look at the big pup looking at the little pup, she is so proud of her child.

9. Their long fluff (or fur)

Just look at the way the fur moves when he catches the treat in slo-mo.

10. Golden Retrievers are just too pure for this world

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
