5 Things A Cinderella Story Taught Me

Aren't we all glad that we don't go to a school where the mascot is the Fighting Frogs?

5 Things A Cinderella Story Taught Me

We all have that one movie that no matter how many times you watch it you will never get tired of it. Well hopefully you all do. "A Cinderella Story" just so happens to be that movie for me. It is probably one of the most cliche movies out there, but if you dig deep enough you will find a few things that you can learn from it.

1. Don't be afraid to be yourself.

Take it from Sam Montgomery. It took a few rude people in her life to realize that she didn't care what people thought of her and that she was fine without them in her life. It may be hard at first to figure out why we don't need different people in our life but the truth will come out eventually and you will be way better off without them in it.

2. When things don't go as planned, don't drag yourself down.

Things always find a way of working out, especially when you least expect it.Make sure to never beat yourself up over things. Things will work out just the way they need to. You may think at that time that nothing ever goes your way or the situation always turns bad, if it isn't meant to be it won't be. So keep your tiara on and your head held high and you'll make it through anything.

3. Be able to take a compliment.

All girls need to know how wonderful they actually are. Media portrays women and young girls in different ways that make us look at ourselves as if we aren't enough. But, eThvery girl deserves to be told they are beautiful, so if Prince Charming tells you that you are beautiful, accept that girl, especially if that Prince Charming is Austin Ames or Chad Michael Murray.

4. You never know what could be right in front of you the entire time.

In life we always seem to over look the smallest things. Instead of looking at the big picture, take a step back and appreciate the small things in life. Appreciating the small things in life will you give you a better outlook on every step you take and every move you make in your everyday lifestyle.

5. Always follow your dreams.

Never settle for anything less than you deserve. No matter what the situation may be, make sure to always stay true to yourself and give yourself what you deserve. If whatever it is, is important, it will find its way back to you somehow.

I could continue to go on and on about how much I love this movie and how great it is for anyone to see and all of the different things you can take from it but the five things that I wrote above are probably some of things you can take with you no matter where you go in life and no matter what you do.

"Never let the fear of striking out, keep you from playing the game."

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.
