Choosing what classes to take can be difficult, especially with the worry that your class may fill up before you are able to sign up for it. Which means, you need backups for your backups. Picking classes can be difficult, especially when you do not know your major and you are just taking classes for the heck of it in order to graduate. The classes I am listing below, I recommend taking for a relatively easy and interesting time.

1. Gender Women Studies 103

I would recommend taking this class because it focuses on our health and body, especially what happens to females during mensuration and pregnancy. Learning this information, you can learn about what will happen to your body in the future. Super interesting.

2. Ed Psych 321

We have all been adolescents, but have you ever really thought about reasons why you did what you did, and how to adapt to adolescents in the future when you become a parent. In this class, you learn how adolescents think, act, types of parenting styles, and everything about adolescent life. It was an interesting and easy class for being an intermediate level.

3. Anthropology 104

This anthropology class you get to emerge into different cultures and learn about the United State's past and how it may be reoccurring in history today. A couple of projects and consist of fieldwork journals--but they are not bad at all, they were super interesting at times. -- check it out.

4. HDFS 517- Couple Relationships

In this class, you analyze different relationships and learn how to have successful ones. You learn about conflicts and how to settle them, and how to be a good communicator. You apply what you learn in real life.

5. Counseling Psychology 225

In this class, you learn how to interact with people, especially for those who differ from you. In this class you develop a huge self-awareness and learn so much about yourself and the world around you.

6. HDFS 363

This is similar to ed psych 321, but this one discusses the elderly and what to expect during this time-- plus it is completely online--super convenient if you ask me.

7.Environmental Studies 113

This class was fairly easy and consisted of weekly short papers and readings. As long as you go to class and pay attention in lecture, everything will come to you for the 2 exams.

8. Nutri Sci 132

Want to learn about nutrition and how what you eat actually affects your body. You learn about vitamins and their function in the body. You learn a lot about your overall health and how food affects this. The exams are fair game-- so make sure you go to lectures.

9.  Horticulture 120

Easy volunteering hours and labs consist of going to gardens and being immersed in nature. Exams are difficult but as long as you study you will be fine.

10.  Clap for Credit

Easiest class at UW Madison... hands down. It is a simple 1 credit class, where you go once a week to literally clap at a performance or a recorded musical.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
