My Anti-Bucket List
Google
  1. Go swimming with dolphins.

The ocean is big and full of undiscovered species. No thanks

2. Go skydiving

Even though I would have a parachute, I don't find it to be fun. The wind blowing in my face forcefully is not my idea of fun.

3.Spending the night in the woods

I'm afraid of the dark, I'll admit it. Bugs in my hair and in my mouth and sweating all night long does not sound amusing.

4. Climb any mountain that's even remotely tall

My joints hurt all the time when I'm doing day to day things so climbing a mountain would be horrendous.

5. Hold any kind of spider

Ew, just ew.

6. Ride on a motorcycle or street bike

I like the security of being in a car. Seeing my life flash before my eyes the whole time I'm riding is not my idea of elation.

7. Hit an animal while driving

I cried when I ran over a bunny because it reminded me of Thumper from Bambi. Killing animals is mean and I will never take part in it.

8 .Eat a bug knowingly

I don't live in the wild. I will never eat bugs when I can have human food.

9. Live anywhere but in the South

I hate the cold and my body hates the cold. The South is where I've grown and thrived, I will never leave.

10. Go to Vegas

I don't like big cities and I definitely don't like wasting my money so visiting a big city will never be my thing.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
