The most fattening season is now behind us and the new year is the best opportunity to get a fresh start and recommit yourself to the gym. With the new year upon us, it is the perfect time: work out attire is on sale, gym memberships are at their cheapest, and you probably got the cutest new running shoes for Christmas. Working out is the easiest way to feel better about yourself and become a more confident version of who you are. However, when you are dying of exhaustion, there are some things that come to everyone’s mind at gym.

1. Do I have the go? Can I hide in the locker room?

2. Will anyone notice if I only do 25 sit ups instead of 30?


3. Where did that man find a shirt to fit his biceps?


4. How is that girl on the stair master not sweating?


5. Who even invented the stair master anyway?


6. Who put a mirror in front of the treadmill?

7. Has anyone ever died because of cardio? Would I be the first?

8. How have I been doing this for 15 minutes and only burned 100 calories?


9. How is a 10 pound weight so heavy?


10. Who decided planks are good for you?


11. Why am I sweating this much?


12. When can I leave?

13. What's for dinner?

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.
