Fall is coming, which means winter is not too far behind it. The weather is about to get super cold and very unpleasant, especially when you're used to walking to class in just a T-short and shorts. As you go home for fall break, keep in mind these winter essentials so you are prepared to conquer the upcoming winter.

Parka

I'm not talking a wimpy little North Face fleece you probably wear when you go shopping and you're only outside for a minute or less. I'm talking about a puffy winter coat that reaches your ankles. As you go to classes in the dead of winter, who cares if you look ridiculous when you're nice and warm?

Snow Boots

Once again, those basic UGGs of yours will not cut it when you're walking in a foot of snow to class. You need some heavy duty snow boots that are waterproof and also keeps your toes warm.

Gloves

You will not regret getting yourself a pair of gloves to keep your hands warm. They are great for when you're texting and don't want to get frostbite.

Hat

Or earmuffs or a knitted headband. But a hat will protect your hair from the snow and keep it (somewhat) dry.

Cabin Socks

These extra warm socks will help with the cold if you hate having cold feet.

Scarf

Such a simple piece of fabric, yet makes a huge difference when walking around campus in the winter.

Long Sleeve Shirts

The temperature of the academic buildings are very unpredictable. Wear a long sleeve shirt just in case the building is just as cold inside as it is inside. Or if you still are shivering from being outside, a long sleeve will help with that.

Blankets

Not exactly for walk to class (unless you're desperate) but perfect for the dorm when it's a little chilly.

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.
