15 Pieces Of Advice For Girls, By A Girl

So I may not be extremely wise yet and I still struggle daily with being a hot mess, but I feel that it’s necessary – as a girl – to remind other girls that they’re important and that as girls, we have to stick together! Girl power, am I right? Here is what I want to say to every single girl out there.

1. Eat a cupcake, they’re good. Be healthy, but don’t make yourself miserable.

2. Find your inner strength. It’s there somewhere.

3. A number does not define you.

4. Just because your ex is dating someone else, that doesn’t diminish the feelings they had for you and the special moments you two shared.

5. It’s okay to not like boys! Girls are just as cute.

6. When people tell you that you look like your father, they aren’t saying you look like a man.

7. Looking good and being fit is 80% food and 20% physical work. (Roughly, don’t quote me on that).

8. Don’t be the girl that always needs a relationship.

9. Not everyone is going to like you; don’t let it get you down.

10. Do what you want; except murder, don’t murder.

11. Speak your mind, but be kind.

12. Don’t accept sexism.

13. Be able to support yourself.

14. Learn how to self-soothe. At the end of the day, it’s just you.

15. And finally, don’t take yourself so seriously.

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.
