25 Thoughts I Have Had While on Winter Break
The Leaf Chronicle

When you're on winter break, a million random thoughts can run through your head. Whether you're stuck in a dorm, at home, or at work, your mind can wander off like a bear into the woods, because on winter break, there's nothing to do. You are bored most of the time, and you're just sitting there on your phone, laughing at memes, which there is no shame in because I am pretty sure that everyone does it. Here are some of the zillions of thoughts I have had since winter break has started.

1. I wonder what my college family is doing.

2. What if dogs spoke whatever language their owners did?

3. How did I ever survive in this small town?

4. I wonder what everyone got for Christmas.

5. For once, I can not find anything interesting on Netflix.

6. Or Hulu.

7. Or YouTube.

8. Oh my gosh, I know who will love this meme. *tags 15 people on Facebook*

9. What to do, what to do.

10. Maybe I can find something to read.

11. *finishes book in a couple of hours* Okay, now what?

12. Okay, maybe I should start looking at what I need for next semester.

13. Who's got 'buy three books for one class' money?

14. Okay, let's see what *insert name* is up to. Okay, they're busy, never mind.

15. Time for another book.

16. Let's see if there's any Pokemon nearby. Okay, there isn't.

17. What do dogs think about?

18. Maybe I should go for a drive.

19. *drives around for 15 minutes* Okay, I've seen that road before. And that man.

20. *comes home* What's for dinner?

21. Have I eaten today? Oh my gosh, I forgot to eat.

22. I HAD ALL THIS TIME AND I FORGOT TO EAT.

23. Yum, food.

24. All is well; I am fed.

25. What to do, what to do.

So, all in all, you can tell my winter break is pretty exciting. There's food, nothing to do, and books. But overall, it is a nice break from the stress of school.

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.
