With Spring semester coming up, you can almost smell the lack of sweet freedom of no classes. It has been a long and hard semester for all of us and I am here to tell you that the end is near. You get a few weeks free of exams, studying, and sitting through boring lectures. It is almost time for you to spend all your time at home cuddling with your dog in a cozy blanket at home.

But before we think about how nice the short break will be we have to keep our end of semester goals in sight. Finals are arguably the most stressful part of the semester.

You have to review all the things you learned in one class, and are expected to remember it. It's tough but not impossible. You've got to break out your notes from earlier in the semester and really structure out time to study for each specific final.

Once the finals are over, if you want to be super on-the-ball, you could even email your professor and ask if there is anything you could do for extra credit.

The end of a course load also means preparing for a new one. This is one of my favorite parts of college because it gives me the satisfaction of knowing that scheduling for these classes gets me that much closer to graduating. The feeling of being able to check classes off of my list is so calming.

So for all my friends who are preparing for finals or getting the end of semester stuff done, I believe in you and if you truly put your whole heart into it then you will do great. We all have to stick together in this crucial time, so grab a study partner and kick the end of this semester's ass!!

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.
