Being A Girl In The "Hookup Culture" Is The Worst

I am the girl who is independent and she shows it every day of her life.

Being a girl in a "hook-up culture" is not that the most fun thing out there. I am not that girl who will get every guy she likes or who she finds attractive. I am the girl who you will marry. I am not the girl who will change myself for a guy. But, I am the girl who is authentically herself always.

I am the girl who you called classy and beautiful. I am not the girl who wears a lot of makeup or does my hair every day. I am the girl who cares so much about everything and everyone. However, I am also the girl who always ends up getting hurt as I do care too much. I am not the girl who will yell at you for being stupid because I will probably be stupid with you. I am the girl who is sassy and has a big heart. I am not the girl who will always show her emotions as she knows that people can use them against her.

I am the girl who will not tell you what she really feels about you as she has done it so much in her life and then every time a person leaves. I am not the girl who take crap off of anyone. I am the girl who will give you so many chances when even when a person does not deserve it.

I am the girl who won't ever want anyone to really know this; however, I am a girl who does really need people to understand her. I am not the girl who will get defeated or give up because life gets hard. I am the girl who is independent and she shows it every day of her life.

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.
