The worst week of the semester is approaching fast. I didn't even realize that the week of finals was only two weeks away. I guess you could say I've been floating through the final weeks of this semester like a sleep deprived and stress over-loaded zombie. It's now time for me to cram for my four finals, three of which are at 8am and the last of the project and papers I have due for this semester. I rely on these 10 things to get me through the last weeks of the semester.

1. Long Showers

Nothing feels better than a long hot shower after a long stretch of studying. Long showers help me relax and also feel great.


3. Netflix

For all the times over the next two weeks, I feel like procrastinating, duh.


4. Sticky Notes

I usually make to-do lists of all the things I need to accomplish in one day. I say the day was a success if I was able to cross at least one thing off my list.



5. My favorite Snacks

Popcorn, sour gummy worms, Twizzlers, chips and salsa, chicken nuggets are just a few of my favorites. I need them for all the late nights I have ahead of me.


6. Headphones

Pop these babies in and start listening to my favorite songs. I'm sure to get a bunch of homework done.



7. Cuddles with my cats

For more procrastinating.


8. My alarm clock

To wake myself up for the three 8 am finals I have. Why does NDSU even schedule their finals at that early of an hour?!


9. The snooze button on my alarm clock

I will need those extra five minutes of sleep on the days of my 8 am finals.


10. Motivation

Whatever last drops I can squeeze out of myself before the winter break. They will be much needed over the next two weeks.

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.

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.
