4 Reasons Eyelash Extensions Will Change Your Life

Getting me out the door five minutes after I wake up isn't the only perk.

Three years ago my boyfriend's mom got her license for doing eyelash extensions and my life has never been the same since. Besides the ease of looking like I took 30 minutes to get ready (when I only took five minutes), there are so many reasons why eyelash extensions will change your life.

1. No makeup no problems

When it comes to eyelash extensions, the rule of thumb is to avoid makeup, especially makeup around the eyes. The oils from makeup and makeup remover can break down the glue holding your lashes in place which will prevent your lashes from staying fab for weeks.

2. You can sleep in a few extra minutes

Thanks to the lack of makeup needed when you have eyelash extensions, you can cut down on your morning routine. I have shaved at least 20 minutes off of my morning routine, which means more sleep in the morning.

3. Bye, bye eyeliner!

I'm terrible at doing my makeup. I can't draw a winged eyeliner or even line my eye with any type of finesse. I also have no idea where my crease is so see you later smokey eye! Eyelash extensions enhance the eye in a way that makes them look bold without needing to add any other type of makeup to your eye.

4. Compliments galore

EVERYONE will notice your eyelashes once you get extensions. The amount of compliments I get on a daily basis is unreal. Eyelash extensions will definitely boost your confidence!

Yes, yes, I know right now you're thinking: "Eyelash extensions are SO expensive!" and you're right! They cost a pretty penny BUT if you are scouring Groupon or if you follow salons on Instagram, you can easily catch some awesome deals.

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.
