We all have that one store in mind where you already know when you step foot inside you have to tell your best friend to hold your credit card and not give it up even if there is "7 for $27.50". Here are a list of stores you are guilty of knowing how dangerous they are.

1. Victoria's Secret

"It's just 7 for $27, the $0.50 doesn't matter, and I'll only pay like $30" YEAH OK, you end up buying boyfriend pants, a half-zip, and of course you can't refuse the $5 sprays and lotions.

2. Ulta

"I just need eyeliner and I have a $3.50 off coupon". $75.00 later and you can't even carry everything you've picked up such as that Naked palette, Philosophy shower gel and lotion, matte lip colors, it just ends up being a giant mess every time. Oh yeah, and you forgot that eyeliner you needed.

3. Bath and Body Works

"2 for $22 3-wick candles?! I need 9." I don't know about you, but I'm pretty close with the manager from this store, and not because I previously knew her. We're on a first name basis..

4. Walmart

You go in there for literally one thing, and you walk out with a cart full. Don't try to convince me otherwise, you know it's true.

5. Michael's

"I need to buy a drawing pad for class" Yeah I actually got the drawing pad, along with glitter, crayons, paints and rhinestones that I will most likely only use once.

6. Sephora

Every girls makeup dream store. You know you NEED everything in there and you know you WILL spend more than $100 easily. Trust me, been there done that multiple times.

7. Target

Oh you just needed the essential tank tops and tee-shirts right? Don't worry, you didn't forget all of the unnecessary makeup that you don't need (even though you already bought half of Ulta and all of Sephora). And you also didn't forget those movies you always wanted and the cute office supplies too. There's another $90 you just blew, congrats.

8. The dollar store

You wouldn't think the dollar store could possibly be dangerous, but it really is. Since everything's a dollar you need like five of everything. Before you know it your total is well over $40 and that my friends, is how a dollar store is dangerous.

9. Pandora

I don't need a man to buy me my rings, I go and buy my own! Preferably the ones with the most bling because they sparkle perfectly in the sunlight while I'm driving. While I'm there I might as well get another charm, and maybe a pair of earrings too.

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.
