When I turned 18, not only did I gain the power to buy cigarettes and lottery tickets, I also gained the privilege to vote. Now, this isn't exactly a right I'm excited to exercise. It doesn't look like there's exactly an exceptional candidate, but when November rolls around I know I'll have to make a decision. Until then, however, I get to think of all of the things I'd rather spend my time doing.

1. Never listen to a Beyoncé song again.

2. Do an entire semester's worth of work in a weekend.

3. Answer every email I've ever received, including the "do not reply" messages.

4. Weed out my Facebook friend's list.

5. Go through the college application process again.

6. Time travel to 7th grade and get stuck there.

7. Actually get involved in Twitter fights.

8. Never eat guacamole again.

9. Get bedbugs in my dorm room.

10. Be allergic to puppies.

11. Get stuck in traffic for 3 hours.

12. Have to retake Driver's Ed.

13. Never drink wine.

14. Unclog a toilet.

15. Fail all my midterms.

16. Forget how to speak English.

17. Lose all the music in my iTunes library.

18. Get a UTI for a year.

19. Run for 10 hours straight.

20. Accidentally burn off my eyebrows.

21. Take the ACT 7 times.

22. Lose all my Instagram followers.

23. Blackout every night for a month.

24. Step on a Lego.

25. Get a "no" from Simon on American Idol.

26. Actually watch every episode of American Idol.

27. Have 8:30 morning and 6:30 night classes every day, with nothing in between.

28. Get stuck in an elevator.

29. Memorize every world capital.

30. Step on a thumbtack.

31. Have to kill a huge spider because there's no one home.

32. Give up pizza.

33. Get lost on a deserted island with Chandler's ex-girlfriend, Janice.

34. Get the Mike Tyson face tattoo.

35. Wear crop tops the entire winter.

36. Find out my car was towed.

37. Go on a date with someone who has food in their teeth the entire time.

38. Do my own taxes.

39. Get hit by lightning.

40. Venmo someone $500 instead of $5.00.

41. Lose a 99-day long Snapchat streak.

42. Learn calligraphy.

43. Have morning breath all day long.

44. Get lice.

45. Marry Joffrey from Game of Thrones.

46. Get abducted by aliens.

47. Fall into quicksand.

48. Accidentally like a picture from 113 weeks ago.

49. Read Paradise Lost.

50. Live in Shrek's swamp.

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.
