Ahhhh...it has finally happened. The first snow day of the semester is here! Nothing makes a college student more happy than waking up to the email saying no classes for whatever the reason may be. Of course, all you want to do is lay in bed, and there's nothing wrong with that! But in case if you want to do something fun on your snow day, here are some ideas!!

1. Outdoor Photoshoot

What could be a better time to be cliche and take those pictures in the snow than on your snow day? Grab some of your friends and take advantage of the photo opportunity! Go put on that new winter outfit that you've been dying to wear and let your inner model shine!

2. Spa Day

Everyone gets stressed out from time to time and all you want to do in those moments is relax. So take this time to think about you! Throw that hair up and slap on your favorite face mask! Grab a bottle of nail polish if you're feeling extra fancy and paint those nails! Candles are always an added bonus!

3. Movie Day

You know that movie you've been meaning to see? Well now is the time, so get your friends, pop some popcorn, and get that movie going! Grab your cozy blankets and comfy pillows, sit back and enjoy!

4. Homework

Okay, I know that no one wants to be thinking about homework when they are blessed with a day off. Well, as much as you don't want to, get to that reading assignment that you put off or take an extra day to study for that exam you've got coming up. Your grads will thank you, trust me!

5. Bake Some Dessert

If you're feeling in the mood for something delicious, baking is the way to go! Your stomach will thank you when you put that fresh out of the oven cookie in your mouth! Whether you start from scratch or go out of a box, your taste buds will be singing to the heavens!

6. Pick up That New Hobby

You know that new makeup look you've wanted to try out? Or how you always wanted to take up photography? Well here is your chance! You have the whole day, so why not become a master?

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.
