11 Reasons May Is The Best Month Out Of The Year
GoodbyeMarch

April showers are bringing in those May flowers. May is here and it is one of the most exciting months out of the year for many reasons. There's so many important events going on in May and so many different things to do. Here's 11 reasons May is the best month out of the year.

1. School is done and summer has officially begun.

We are all waiting for the month of May because we all know school is out. We look forward to the month of May all year long. It's summer time!

2. We get to reunite with our friends from home.

It's been a long semester without seeing our lovely friends from home. The month of May is finally a time to reunite with our long lost best friends. Our college friends are great, but sometimes we just want to go back to our home roots.

3. It's time to relax.

The year has been hard on us, and now it's time to take a break for a little while. May is finally our chance to relax from all the stresses of school.

4. Start new jobs or internships.

We may have just gotten done with school, but that doesn't stop us from keeping our foot on the gas. May is the beginning of many jobs and internships where we can gain the experience for our future careers.

5. We get to spend time with our family.

Family time is the best time. May is a chance to finally come home from school and get in some much needed family time. We made our way through the long semester and now all we want is to spend some time with our favorite people.

6. More importantly, we get to come home to our pets.

It's no secret, we missed our pets while we were at school. Nothing is better than coming home to a wagging tail or a purring cat. We missed them the most.

7. Country concerts.

Country concert season is here. It all starts in May. The flannels, cowboy hats, and good times are all right around the corner!

8. Indy 500.

The 100th running of the Indy 500 is here, and it is an event you're not going to want to miss. May is full of special events and this might just be one of the biggest.

9. The Kentucky Derby.

There's nothing quite like dressing to the nines and having a great time while doing it. The month of May is home to this event, making May that much better.

10. Memorial Day.

Memorial Day is known for a lot of people headed out to the lake. It's a great time to get together with family and friends for the holiday before May is over!

11. Pool season is here.

The pool covers are off, friends are home, and pool season has officially began. It's time to take the chance to relax and catch some rays this May.

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.
