5 Things To Do In New York City This Spring
GIFY

A few weeks ago, a little earlier than planned, spring arrived. Or, at least, the weather was spring like. The temperature outside ranged from the 60's to high 70's and everyone in New York was outside basking in the lovely weather, shedding tights and coats for sandals and sunglasses. If you live in New York and want to take advantage of the early spring weather, here are five things to check out:

1. Central Park


There's nothing like taking a stroll in Central Park when the weather is warm and the trees are blooming. If you do, you can also enjoy many of the park's other amenities such as biking, boating, baseball, horse-drawn carriage rides, and picnics on the Great Lawn. You could also sit in Shakespeare's Garden and admire the flowers and greenery there. The possibilities are endless.

2. Outdoor Concerts


Now that the cold front is clearing up, many music venues in NYC will begin to hold their concerts outside! Come hear some of your favorite artists play while at the same time enjoying the fresh air. What could be better?

3. Farmer's Markets/Street Fairs

Once the weather gets warmer it's so much fun to browse around one of these fairs. Grab a cold drink and enjoy the sunshine while getting healthy groceries at a farmer's market or browsing jewelry at a street fair. Some are bound to start popping up soon since veggies and fruits are starting to come back in season.

4. Museums

Museums sometimes have interesting outdoor exhibits to check out, opening as the weather improves. There are so many museums to take advantage of in New York.

5. Eat Outdoors


Cafes and restaurants are starting to seat outdoors. Take a seat outside, grab an iced tea or coffee and enjoy! Bonus if you bring your adorable dog along to sit with you.

New York is an amazing city, so go out and enjoy all it has to offer this spring!

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.
