Classes are finally over; you're finally free! Summer is just around the corner, and you finally have time to relax with the ones you love. Some of us have a significant other we can spend our summer days and nights with, while others are on the hunt for a summer fling. I've created the perfect list of dates to go on that definitely won't break the bank.

1. Star Gazing

Grab a blanket and sweatshirt and find as many constellations as you can!

2. Explore a city

Pick a place you and your significant other haven't been to, grab a map and explore!

3. Go blueberry (or whatever berry you want) picking

Who can resist fresh fruit on a hot summer day?

4. Bake

Even if your culinary creation doesn't come out like it does on the box, it's the memories that really matter

5. Plan a beach day

You can rock your sexy little one piece while catching much-needed rays with a gorgeous view

6. Go to a Drive-In Movie

Hello cheap tickets and back seat hookups, oh wait, there's a movie to watch too

7. Go Karts

A little healthy competition is good for any relationship, as long as you win of course

8. Dress up and eat somewhere fancy

Of course, don't totally break the bank, but think of how you'll slay in that cute little dress you've been dying to wear

9. Hit the mall and shop

Browse through each other's favorite stores, and possibly buy a thing or two

10. Pedicures

Don't knock it till ya try it, a little exfoliation is good for the soul

11. Hike

Much needed serenity and crisp clean air is just what the doctor ordered

12. Go to a baseball game

Are you even American if you don't go to a single baseball game all summer? Life is always "batter" at the ballpark, after all

13. Go to the zoo

The zoo never gets old, embrace your inner child and live it up

14. Dance

Grab a speaker and play all of each other's favorite songs and dance the night away

15. Hit the gym

Hype each other up while working on that summer bod

16. Roast some marshmallows and make smores

A s'more or three is a summer staple, so eat up and enjoy yourselves

17. Go to a concert

Each of you should pick a concert you want to go to and go to both. Maybe even lose your voice from being so excited

18. Make your own ice cream creations

Hit the store and buy everything you need to make the perfect ice cream creation

19. Binge watch a Netflix show or favorite movie series

Hey Fast and Furious, I'm prepared to have my heart broken again by you, cue the ugly crying

20. Tie-dye t-shirts together

Seriously, who can resist tie-dye? You'll have a cute af matching outfit to wear on your next date!

21. Make a playlist of music you love for each other, and listen to it together

Cuddles while listening to some fire music sounds like the perfect date to me, and make sure to be open minded

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
