Summer is the time to do the things you can't do at school. One of my favorite things to do when I am home is cook! I am always looking for new healthy recipes, especially desserts. These desserts will have you running to your kitchen to start baking!

1. Homemade Reese's

These homemade peanut butter cups are so easy to make, and they are delicious!! They are rich with flavor, so only one peanut butter cup will satisfy your sweet tooth.

2. Coconut dark chocolate chia pudding

I have never had chia pudding, but I am very excited to try it. It is rich and creamy but dairy free, with only 120 calories per serving!

3. Banana oatmeal chocolate chip muffins

Muffins are a great mid-afternoon snack or even a great way to start your day! These muffins are full of flavor and will keep you energized throughout the day.

4. Greek yogurt cheesecake

This is a perfect light and refreshing dessert! A delicious and easy treat to make!

5. Zucchini banana bread muffins

Zucchini muffins are one of my favorite snacks or even a good breakfast paired with some coffee. These zucchini muffins are soft with a sweet touch and gluten-free!

6. Blueberry-lemon Ricotta poundcake

This cake is not only delicious, but it only takes 30 minutes to prepare! You could also always substitute the blueberries for your fruit of choice.

7. Chocolate-covered banana ice cream bars

The chocolate used for this recipe is vegan, but you could always substitute it with whatever kind of chocolate you love. This is a very fun and easy activity to do on a warm summer day.

8. Strawberry shortcake kabobs

I have never tried to grill strawberries, but I think it could be an interesting thing to try. These take very little time to prepare and could be a great addition to your "cookout menu."

9. Nutella strawberry parfaits

This recipe is very easy to make and it is a fancy twist on strawberries dipped in chocolate.

10. Skinny raspberry mojito cheesecake bar

These cheesecake bars are filled with creamy cheesecake, fresh mint and lime juice. They are perfect for a cookout and are very aesthetically pleasing.

There are plenty of other healthy recipes out there to satisfy your sweet tooth while staying healthy! You can also substitute the unhealthy ingredients for ingredients on the healthier side.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
