We all have heard of the famous TV Host, Ellen Degeneres. While hosting her show on NBC at 3 P.M. every single day Monday through Friday, Ellen is known for being relatable.

In fact, as a college student, Ellen is sometimes VERY relatable.

1. Terrible eating habits

When you know you're getting the Freshman 15, then the sophomore, and then the junior. Oh please, do not let this continue into the senior year!

2. When you are a star student.

Okay, so maybe you actually turned your assignment in at 11:49 instead of 11:59 P.M. You deserve a medal! Who says participation medals are silly? You go ahead and get that 10% of your grade participation points!

3. Lecture feels

When you're in double block lecture trying to stay awake. Even in an 8 A.M. class, this will probably be you as your professor clicks through the endless amount of slides.

4. The beginning of the year

Go ahead, ask me for a fun fact. Do you want two truths and a lie? Want to know my major and year? You have been prepping for this day since last semester.

5. The struggle

When your life is going down the toilet and you feel like you're drowning in homework, don't. Go ahead and drown in a box of wine instead! It will make you feel better.

6. Going out

When you finish your box of wine and need to go out, dress like Ellen. Go out, and forget about your cares in the world and all of those assignments due at 11:59 P.M. tomorrow.

7. People need to be quiet.

You probably say this to that one annoying kid in class who wants to remind the professor about an assignment or a quiz. You also probably say this to people like your roomies on a Friday morning after a crazy Thursday night out at AXP or Phi Kap.

We may all watch Ellen at 3 P.M. every day but, as college kids, we also need to live like Ellen every day. No matter if you are working hard or maybe playing hard, remember to always be kind to one another!

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
