3 Ways To Spring Clean Your Life
Valeria Boltneva

Maybe it's the beautiful weather we've been having lately, but it definitely feels like spring is in the air. And with spring, comes spring cleaning. Spring is a time of rejuvenation. A time to get out of the slums of winter and to start fresh like the breeze outside, and grow like the Forsythias. Sometimes, in order to do this, we need to "Spring Clean" our lives. Here are 3 easy ways to start your "Spring Cleaning".

1. De-clutter your room.

This seems like an obvious one. When we think of the term "spring cleaning" we often think about material objects that we want to get rid of. This actually means so much more than that. Yes, it's good to get rid of the useless junk in your room that doesn't serve a need or purpose, but it's even better to throw away items that may have a negative memory attached to it. Maybe it's a picture of you and you ex-BFF or a teddy bear an ex-significant other gave to you. To determine whether you should get rid of it, just simply hold it in your hand and ask yourself: "Does this make me happy/ bring back happy memories? Will I remember I own this in a year? Do I NEED this?" If you answered "No" to any of these, maybe you should let this item go.

2. De-clutter your social media.

This is almost the exact same concept as #1. Of course, I'm not saying you should hold these people in your hand and ask "Will I remember you in a year?" because that would be really silly. My point is, why should you be friends with someone who wouldn't give you the time of day? Clear out the negative people in your life, and make more room for the people who genuinely love and care about you. Life is too short for crummy people. The most important people in your life are the ones who make you happy. Just go through your followers or friends list and ask yourself "Would my life be different if this person wasn't in my life? Does this person make me happy?"

3. Clear your negative thoughts and doubts.

If your'e truly happy with your life, then you shouldn't be doubting yourself. Don't ever doubt your dreams, aspirations, or ideas because they could be a huge impact on the world around you. Clear all those negative doubts out of your head, and think more positively. Clear all those negative thoughts too, whether it be about yourself, someone else, or an opinion. Think positively and love yourself because, to quote RuPaul: “If you don't love yourself, how in the hell you gonna love somebody else?”

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.
