College is hard, It feels your life is a never-ending juggling act while riding a unicycle and you’re constantly trying not drop the ball or just fall off completely, or at least that’s how it feels for me sometimes, being a fulltime college student has left me feeling like a one-woman show.

Trying to balance good grades, make time for family, friends, and my relationship all while having a job is no easy feat. I’m not going to lie when I first began my transition from high school student to college I was consistently stressing out. When I was juggling everything well I felt like superwoman and when felt like I was dropping the ball I felt like bozo the clown.

I was way too hard on myself and sometimes I still can be, but here’s the thing I always seemed to forget, at least I was trying and never gave up on myself and if you’re a hard worker like me I’m sure you forget that too.

I used to worry all the time if my best was good enough in all aspects of my life, were my loved satisfied with our relationships? could I be doing better in school?, am I good enough at my job? and the answer to all of those questions is yes because I'm trying my best and that's good enough. We all have bad days but that doesn’t mean were inadequate and once I kept that in mind I felt confidence instead of self-doubt.

As college students we already have so many expectations put on us every day, the least we can do is be a little nicer to ourselves. I have to remind myself that I can tackle any situation with ease because with everything I do I know I’m giving it my all and I know you’re doing the same, so worry no more my fellow college students throw all self-doubt out of the window you’re doing a fantastic job.

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.
