It is no secret to anyone in the Midwest that our weather is as unstable as America's current political climate. It's completely bonkers. One day it is 30 degrees and snowing, the next its 75 degrees and sunny! What gives, people...

Having bipolar weather makes being a basic Starbucks lover sick. I never know what to order, so I usually look to the weather to help me decide. Over the course of 7 days and 7 different weather conditions, here is what I suggest you order!

1. Cold and Rainy - London Fog Latte

Much like the city of London - this latte is perfect for a gloomy day.

2. Blazing hot and humid - Shaken Iced Tea


Shaken tea is so refreshing... and they usually fill the cup over halfway with ice, so you'll have a plenty cold drink and something to crunch on after.

3. Cool and Breezy (perfect jacket weather) - Macchiato

This drink just goes with the flow, so You can get this hot or cold, whatever you feel like. My new favorite is the cinnamon almond milk iced macchiato.

4. Windy AF - Bottled Teavana Tea

The reason you want this drink is that... it. has. a. lid. It's also pretty tasty.

5. Blizzard - White Chocolate Mocha

White Chocolate Mochas are the epitome of comfort drinks. It is warm. It is creamy. It is chocolatey. Added bonus--if you are not a coffee drinker, but still need caffeine, this latte hides espresso like a dream.

6. Sunny and 75 - Frappuccino

Any Frappuccino tastes delicious sitting outside. The website doesn't specifically state this, but I'm pretty sure they want you to lay in a hammock while you drink it.

7. Changing throughout the day - Coffee

The GOAT of Starbucks. Start off with a hot coffee in a reusable cup and if it gets hot out, just add ice! I know. Stroke of genius.

The good news is that you can count on Starbucks, even if you can't count on the weather

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.

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.
