How I'll Be A Best Seller Like Stephen King
dreadcentral.com

Everyone knows Stephen King, either for his horror stories or the terrifying movies that come from his horrifying creations. There are so many reasons why I aspire to be like Stephen King, though maybe not for the reasons that you think. I mean, sure it would be great to make all the money that he does and only need to write books to make a living, that would be amazing. But I really want to write horror like he does. I want to create worlds of fear that keeps readers up all night. It will probably keep me up as well writing it but it's a worthy sacrifice.

I also want to be known for all the weird things that I write about and why I write the way I do that most people don't know. There are several things that people don't know about Stephen King, like the fact that he's afraid of the number 13. Which is a little strange because of the fact that he writes horror but hey, I'm not judging. I also want to use things that people see every day and make it terrifying so they don't look at it the same way again. Take Ronald McDonald for instance. Everyone knows who he is, but did you know that he was the inspiration for Pennywise the clown in Stephen King's IT? Yeah, you'll never look at a Happy Meal the same way again.

The only thing I would never want to do is forget about writing books. Yes. Stephen King doesn't actually remember writing some of his books. It's due to all the drugs he was on back in the day. But thankfully he's sober and is able to write and remember everything that he writes about. I'll write like Stephen King skip the part when he was on drugs and hopefully be a best seller in no time. At least that's how I hope it happens.

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.
