This past week, I finally made a decision about what I want to study in college: psychology. I have been pretty positive that I wanted to major in psychology for a while, but I kept putting off declaring my major because that means I actually have to commit to something. I can barely decide what I want to eat, how am I going to decide what I want to do with the rest of my life. I went through all the feels while filling out the paperwork to declare my major, and I thought the Kardashians could perfectly describe how I felt.

1. I will never have to answer "I'm not sure what my major is yet" at family parties again

Every holiday this past year, I always got the question "So, what are you studying in college?" I dreaded this question because I always had to answer, "Oh, I'm not sure yet" and would without fail get the response, "Oh...That's ok! You have plenty of time" Now I can finally show my family that I kinda know what I'm doing.

2. Will this major lead me to a good job?

That's the main thing on almost everyone's mind when deciding what to study in college. Will I get a job with a salary I can live off of, but also enjoy what I'm doing.

3. If my parents ask if I'm positive about my decision one more time, I'm going to scream

When I finally decided to declare my major, there were many phone calls between my parents and I asking if I was sure that it was what I wanted to do. They were being so supportive, but also making me question everything I was doing.

4. Should I just go into business?

^^^me in any math class. So, I decided business probably wasn't for me.

5. I finally have an idea of what I'm doing with my life

I now know what classes I should be taking, what summer jobs I should be looking for, and what connections I need to start making. Having a little idea of what you want to do with the rest of your life takes a lot of weight off your shoulders. I no longer feel like a lost puppy, especially when choosing classes.

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.
