Some people say the kind of beer you drink says something about you and they might be right.

Ahh, finals week or "hell week" as it is known to many college students is over. For some, it is off to a summer job to make serious bank for bills, college expenses, and other things. For others, it is a chance to kick back, relax, drive down to Florida or go in your backyard, plop some burgers on the grill and grab a cold, refreshing beer.

Some people say the kind of beer you drink says something about you and they might be right. Here are five beers you should probably try right now.

5. Samuel Adams Boston Lager

A traditional American beer, this beer has a bitter-ish taste to it, but it is by far my favorite brand of beer. The label has a Founding Father on it, so it might make you feel a little patriotic drinking it. This beer has a great taste to it (in my opinion) and is made right here in America.

4. Budweiser or Bud Light


Another traditional American beer, this beer is a commonly heard of beer. You see people drinking this beer everywhere you go. From football tailgate and frat parties to fishing boats on the lake during the summer, Budweiser and Bud Lights are a beer most people have on hand (or in their Yetis or fridges getting cold).

3. Corona


A Mexican beer, Corona is another beer you regularly see around in bars, restaurants and barbecues. I had one of these when I turned 21 and honestly, I didn't like the taste of it. But some people do, and that's fine. Some people drink Corona with a lime in it, I'm guessing to make it taste better?

2. Heineken


A Dutch beer, Heineken is another beer you normally see in bars and restaurants. It is more famous in the sitcom How I Met Your Mother, when one of the main characters, Barney drinks it. I personally have not tried this beer, but I'm open to trying it. Neil Patrick Harris, the guy who plays Barney Stinson, also does commercials for Heineken.

1. Blue Moon


Blue Moon is a Belgian style beer made in Golden, Colorado. I have personally tried this beer and this is a beer you want while sitting down at a restaurant devouring a nice, juicy steak. It tastes really good.


If you are not a person who likes beer, you could always make your liquor drink of choice like a Margarita or a Jim Pepper (Jim Beam Bourbon mixed with Dr. Pepper) and relax after a hard day at your summer job or coming home after Finals Week.

Now is the time for us to just relax.

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.
