Spring break is a long-awaited and glorious event during the school year. Students of all ages are packing their bags and longing for the beach and sun that await them. This list includes everything you'll need to have a fun-packed successful spring break.


1. Sunscreen

This is one of the basics, but it's important to point it out because the majority of college students think they're invincible and don't need sunscreen.

2. Aloe

If you're one of the students mentioned above, you're going to end up needing aloe after you burn in the sun from not using sunscreen.

3. Bathing suits

Duh.

4. A fanny pack

It will hold all of your valuables and make quite the fashion statement.

5. Your decorated water jug


Whether or not you choose to fill it with water is your choice, but this jug will keep you from having to run around all day looking for a refill.

6. The perfect hat

7. A flag


Whether it's for a sorority, fraternity, school, or America the great, a flag will make for some great pictures.

8. Koozies

There will be drinking.

9. Sunglasses

Make sure you have the perfect pair that's a mix between protection and fashion!

10. First-aid kit

Trust me, you'll thank me for this one. Better safe than sorry!

11. Plenty of tanks

12. A cooler

13. Disposable cups

This will ensure that you're not too upset over losing your favorite cup.

14. Plenty of drinks and snacks

Keep yourself hydrated and well-fed!

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.
