7 Pieces Of Dr. Seuss Wisdom To Keep In Mind No Matter Your Age
Al Ravenna

Whether you’ve read them to your kids or had them read to you while growing up, almost everyone has come in contact with at least one Dr. Seuss story at one time or another. Although the stories are commonly thought of as whimsical and playful tales, Seuss has embedded valuable insight in each book that is important to remember throughout the course of our ever-changing lives (even if you think you’re “too old”).

Here are 7 Dr. Seuss quotes that will always be relevant no matter your age or place in life

1. “You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes. You can steer yourself any direction you choose." (Oh, the Places You’ll Go!)

2. “It is fun to have fun but you have to know how.” (The Cat in the Hat)

3. “Today you are you! That is truer than true! There is no one alive who is You-er than You!” (Happy Birthday To You!)

4. “There are so many things you can learn about, but you’ll miss the best things if you keep your eyes shut.” (I Can Read With My Eyes Shut)

5. “The more that you read, the more things you will know. The more that you learn, the more places you’ll go.” (I Can Read With My Eyes Shut).

6. “You oughta be thankful a whole heaping lot for the people and places you’re lucky you’re not.” (Did I Ever Tell You How Lucky You Are?)

7. “It's not about what it is, it's about what it can become.” (The Lorax)

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.
