Enjoy The Little Things In Life

It really is the little things that count the most.

Enjoy The Little Things In Life
Julia Schmidt

Sometimes when you think life sucks, you really need to enjoy the little things in life — as corny and cliché as it sounds. If you think about it, there's never a day that goes by without something positive. Once you see the small things that give your mood a little boost, your days tend to get happier and brighter.

Both negative and positive vibes are contagious. If you're in a crappy mood, chances are that the people around you might be brought down a little bit by that. However, if you're in a great mood and you're feeling outgoing, your day and others' days will be improved just by your presence and attitude.

Show some appreciation for someone holding the door open for you, warm weather, a clean bedroom, sunflowers, and sunshine. Little things can mean the absolute most.

Also, someone saying "bless you" when you sneeze or asking how your day has been should ultimately bring your mood up — at least a little.

You can live a longer life when you live it the way you want to and when you can live happily. Since life is so long, why would you want to waste it being in a bad mood or by being anything less than content? Happiness is everywhere. Radiate positivity and be someone's sunshine. Life really can't be that bad.

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.
