While combing through my bookshelf last week, I was hit with a wave of nostalgia when I saw all of my favorite childhood books hidden underneath piles of school assigned reading. Some of which I dreaded, and some of which I actually liked. I thought about how much I loved to read as a kid, even to the point where sometimes I had books taken away from me by my teachers at school and my parents at home because I could never put down a good book.

I've decided that I'm going to get back into the groove of reading and rekindle my love for the amazing escape from reality that books provide. Here are some of the books that sparked my love for reading as a kid and which I think that all 2000s kids have seen at some point in their childhoods, and even if you aren't a kid these are some of the best reads in my opinion.


1. The Magic Tree House Series

The classic tales of Jack and Annie's adventures as they venture into another world through their magic tree house.

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.

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.
