Be You, Be Bold

We are all so unique, why hide it?

Sometimes there are things that we want to say, but just can't get ourselves to. Sometimes there are things that we want to do, but the fear of actually following through is holding us back. Sometimes we filter what we say, because we are afraid of what others will think.

What we should be doing is saying how we feel, not holding anything back. What you want to say, needs to be heard. What you are thinking is important and should be shared. We need to stop being afraid of what others will think. We have so much to offer the world. Instead of shying away from what you feel and what you want to say, say it. Be confident in yourself and don't let the fear of judgment stand in your way.

If you want to be adventurous, then you can't let the fear of trying new things hold you back. There is so much to see, so much to do, and letting that fear keep us from seeing and doing those things would be devastating. Go adventure, do something you never have, and be bold.

Don't be afraid to be yourself, either. So many of us are filtering what we say, changing what we wear, and pushing down our personalities in order to blend in. Scratch that. Be you, be outgoing, be goofy, if people don't like that about you then you'll find people that do. We are all so incredibly unique in our own way and it would be a shame if each of us weren't sharing what makes us standout with others.

Be You, Be Bold.

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.
