We go in for one thing and come out with 36 items. We all do it -- it's OK.

1. "Focus, you've got this. Just get in and out." you came here for a notebook

2. "I'll just get a cart though, just in case." **note: This is the moment you realize you've left 'casual shopping' and entered the seventh level of hell: Target with an empty cart. Must. Buy. Everything*

3. "Sh*t, they have my favorite pens. I'll just get one pack."

4. *puts 12 packs in the cart* "Whatever, they're only a dollar."

5. "Oh they put out new swimsuits!"

"I think they're buy one get one 50 percent off. That's like getting six swimsuits for the price of four and a half or something. Whatever, I'll do the math later."

6. "God bless they finally put out the 2016-2017 academic calendars."

7. "I'll just get four, you know, in case I lose one or something ..."

8. "I probably need new makeup."

9. "I've been thinking about getting a new curling iron (I haven't) so I'll just check them out really quick."

10. "Ugh, it's $29"

11. "Oh, but it's 5 percent off on Cartwheel, so I'll get it for sure." #bargainshopper

12. "Sunscreen is 10 percent off on Cartwheel, so I should probably stock up." (I don't need sunscreen)

13. "I think I need more highlighters." (I don't)

14. "Oh my gosh, I have been looking everywhere for a golden dog-shaped tape dispenser! have to get it."(No I haven't)

15. "The Nate Berkus section saves my life."

16. "I think I should redecorate my whole room."

17. "... and apartment."

18. "I can totally justify this purchase of a $30 piece of wall art that I'll never hang up."

19. "I should check out the DVD section just 'cause" *hasn't used a DVD player since I was 9*

20. "The Hannah Montana movie is only $8.99? Must purchase." *never watches it*

21. "I totally need a new power strip for under my bed."

22. "You can never go wrong with buying extra lightbulbs, you know, just in case."

23. "I definitely need a new purse"

24. "I'm probably running out of EOS chapsticks" *puts seven in cart*

25. "Ugh, I've been looking all over for this glitter tape that has so many uses!" *has maybe one redeeming use*

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.
