For many Muslims, Ramadan is the best month of the year. It’s the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. During the month of Ramadan, Muslims fast during from sunrise to sunset. It’s the month in which the Quran was revealed, so it’s very important for Muslims.

  1. Waking up for Suhoor is the hardest:

  2. When your alarm for Suhoor rings and there’s only 10 minutes left to eat:

  3. While eating Suhoor:


  4. Going back to sleep after Suhoor is the best:

  5. Smelling the Iftar like:


  6. The whole day goes by well until the last hour:

  7. Setting the table for Iftar and literally having heart eyes for everything on the table:

  8. Then going to the mosque for Taraweeh and not being able to move:

  9. Leaving the mosque be like:

  10. When you spot the moon on the last night of Ramadan, Chaand Raat, and celebrate!

  11. Then finally the best day, Eid! The day to get all dressed up, celebrate with family and friends, and just have fun!









Ramadan is not just about not eating and sleeping at odd times of the day, it’s a purification of one’s self. We lift up our hearts to God and cleanse ourselves through fasting, prayer, and build community. It’s the month in which we dedicate ourselves to serving others as we help ourselves grow in our relationships with God. It’s truly a blessing to be able to fast and celebrate Ramadan.

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.
