The hit TV show, Modern Family, will bring out the best in you. It'll make you laugh, make you cry, give you a heart warming feeling, remind you how thankful you are of your family, and help you with the hardships of growing up. Although every character is lovable, no one beats Phil in the area of advice.

1. Always think inside the box.

His logic may not be completely wrong on this one...

2. Sometimes we expect too much out of each other and out of life.


It's good to sit back sometimes and appreciate the little things in life.

3. No one wants to accept change in life, but everything happens for a reason.

4. We don't always make the best decisions, but thank god some situations are reversible.

We shouldn't all go out and buy alpaca's now but you get the point.

5. It's always okay to reference Harry Potter in your everyday life.


6. Life can get you down time and time again but it's important to keep your head up.


7. Laughing at your own jokes is okay, even when they are terrible.

8. Believe it or not, this is an important skill to have.

I mean, you never know when you might run into Zac Efron and need to break free together.

9. Always do what makes you happy, even if society doesn't agree.

Who says you can't wear that? Who says you can't do that?

10. No caption needed.

11. Be confident in yourself, you'll achieve more than you think you can.

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.
