Trying different cuisines is immensely imperative to fully exploring the spice of life! As an adventurous foodie, I exquisitely relish in trying various types of cuisines and seem to like almost all of them! Honestly, my favorites are Indian and Chinese as I have been brought up in a household with an interplay of these two cultures. In addition, I'm a huge fan of seafood like shrimp, salmon, and lobster. I strongly believe that following the healthy eating plate and the food pyramid should be adhered to consistently on a regular basis!

The healthy eating plate ensures that you are receiving all the nutrition that you will need to remain full and active for longer durations. Once we embark upon the task of trying new and unique cuisines from around the world, we tend to learn more about the vast array of cultural attributes that have been inculcated in the Western world. As a matter of fact, according to CNN, most of the popular foods that we love and are addicted to immigrated from overseas. For instance, our top most favorite French Fries have originated from Belgium or Dutch and the classic slice of pizza came from Italy. It is really remarkable how so many of our favorite everyday meals have been amalgamated into American dishes and how they are products of numerous cultures instead of just one!

A different cuisine transports you to a whole new world where you can delve into the mixed flavors of a single dish. Furthermore, I enjoy eating soup because it is a special and soothing treat that adds to the main entree. Some examples of soups that I recommend outside of the very famous "Chicken noodle soup" would be Lentil soup, Minestrone, and Thai soup. Soups are the dynamic surplus which enhances a meal's quality and quantity. In other words, it adds its own sprinkle of delicious flavor into the entire meal. Thus, the more you aspire to increase the intensity of your taste buds, the more lively your interaction with various cultures will turn out to be!

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
