5 Ways To Keep Your Summer Adventurous

We all spend the whole year looking forward to summertime. When it finally gets here, the first few weeks are a breeze. When the middle of summer starts approaching, we often find ourselves being bored and wishing there was more to do. Well, here's a few ideas.

1. Binge-watch a Netflix series

If it's a rainy day, or just a day needed to recuperate from a long week, Netflix is the way to go. I personally recommend "Scandal," "One Tree Hill" or "Gossip Girl." You cannot go wrong with any of these choices.

2. Float the river

Floating the river is the best way to relax while still getting to have a good time. You get to spend time with friends and enjoy the outdoors at the same time — what could be better?

3. Go camping

Camping is something that can be a very rewarding experience. Something about stripping a person of their electronics and air conditioner brings a certain natural experience. Not only is camping fun, but it can teach you may things about yourself.

4. Hammock somewhere beautiful

Another relaxing activity is hammocking. Grab a book, and go enjoy nature. You just might remember that reading doesn't always have to be boring.

5. Go on a road trip

What better way to spend a week or two than with your best friends exploring places you've never been? Gas prices have finally dropped back down so gas up, load up and take off. You won't regret it.

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.
