7 Reasons To Plan A Spring Break Trip
PEXELS

Spring Break is the most important element to any college bucket list! However, a spring break trip can be so much more than just a few days of partying on the beach. This spring break, make a promise to let yourself explore and see everything that the world has in store.

1. You will experience something new.

That "something new" may be an experience that changes your life. From traveling upstate for a few weeks to going somewhere warm, it will most likely be a new experience.

2. You will meet new friends.

When traveling, be open to meeting new people. Often they have different views, life experiences, and paths that challenge your own. This is a good thing.

3. You will bond with old friends.

If you take a trip with friends from school, you will most likely become closer than ever before. When people leave school, a bond is formed through joint experience and a lack of social expectations.

4. You will have some great stories to tell.

From long nights to exploring a hidden path, you are bound to amass a collection of fantastic stories to tell. Life is short so the best way to live it is fully.

5. You will have some amazing and terrible pictures.

Yes, some of those pictures will look great on Instagram. No, that one from the beach at 4am after a few Margaritas is not one of them. However, all of them are a reminder of that life changing experience.

6. You will figure out the places you love and the places you hate.

You may fall in love where you visit... or you may hate it. Either way you will have developed a preference and taste that will alter and shape your life.

7. You will grow as a person.

Creating new memories, meeting new people, and having new experiences will result in a better you. You shouldn't travel because you are young. You should travel because it keeps the soul young and growing.

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.
