5 Side Hustles You Can Start Today

Side hustles are taking over the world as a great way to earn extra income on top of your everyday life. Even if you're a student or have a day job, a side hustle is a great way to earn money in a way that could be more fun. With endless ways to make money, some require a lot of prep work or transportation that just isn't worth it for a couple extra bucks. However, there are some side hustles you can do right from home and can be a lot of fun too. Here are some side hustles you don't have to wait to jump right into!

1. Selling your clothing and items.

Do you have unused clothing and items hanging around? If they're in good condition, you can resell them! Poshmark, eBay, letgo, and Mercari let you buy and sell items such as clothing, homeware, and other gently new or used items you don't need anymore. It's a great way to get rid of extra stuff and get cash for it. Plus, some people find reselling to be very successful.

2. Bring your creations to Etsy.

Perhaps you love to knit or are a talented artist who paints in their free time. Take your creations to the next level and sell them on Etsy! It's far easier than selling in-store and you control everything from your computer. Whether you have a nifty hat design or want to share you canvases with others, Etsy allows you to earn money from your talents.

3. Sell your photography online.

Do you love photography and getting the perfect angle? Even if it's just a hobby, you can take your photography skills and make money off of them. Sites like iStockPhoto and Shutterstock let you sell your photos multiple times to buyers who need them for their websites or businesses.

4. Become a virtual assistant.

Work from home by becoming a virtual assistant. Places like Upwork connect you with people who need services involving writing, web developing, personal assisting, and more. By taking your skills, you can get paid to do everything right at home while also getting credit for projects!

5. Cater for others.

If you have a vast set of cooking and baking skills, catering might be a great side hustle for you! Whether you cater for a friend's party or manage to squeeze in a few small events, it's a great way to showcase your skills and make some hungry people very happy! Try showcasing your side hustle by starting a blog (if you haven't already) and launching a website. It will look more professional, potential clients can see what types of services you offer, and it's an easy way to get in contact with you!

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.
