As three months have already passed-while it has felt like forever-there have been a surplus of events in the news since New Years' Day.

I believe we can agree that the month of January went by at a snail's pace. there was a lot to be covered. To start off, I went back to college a=to start my second semester of school. As slow as it went by...we are now at midterms. Regardless of school or not, it has been a busy year. People thought world was three was going to happen, the panic was spread through the country, memes were being made and it was only the first month.

February, who is she? I couldn't tell you what happened this month because it went by so quickly. I only remember Valentine's day because I was by myself and watched a movie with my snacks (hoping to change that). I took a few exams but that was it for me. February was also the month where the new up-coming virus begun.

IT'S CORONA TIME is the theme for March-that and the word "canceled"-since the virus has spread throughout the world. What first seemed to be a minor threat has quickly turned into a "major" one at that. Yes the virus is lethal and yes it does spread, the media has blown it out of proportion. We are in quarantine and now have to do social distancing. Due to this, our university has moved to online classes.

I was really looking forward to a full semester at college with my friends, community, and two-stepping on Thursday nights. One thing I was looking forward to was March Madness, but we no longer have it with us, it has been canceled.

Basketball is canceled.

Soccer is canceled.

Hockey Is canceled.

All sports have been canceled due to COVID-19, we can just cancel the whole month of March.

Looking into the future months, I try to see some optimism in the next few but I also see the virus getting worse among all nations.

In the meantime, while I am quarantined, I better work on my two-stepping.

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.
