Fads That Need To Go In 2016
kissmybit

The turn of the year always promises new opportunities, experiences and trends. The new year also provides everyone the chance to let go of everything they disliked in the previous year and try their best to start anew. As 2016 approaches, we are faced with the choice of continuing the way we lived our lives in 2015 or completely remodeling for the new year. Come January 1st, we are given the perfect chance to rid ourselves of the obnoxious fads that we saw in 2015. These include:

200-Second Snapchat Stories

You might have more fun if you set your phone down and actually enjoy your night out instead of documenting every single moment of it for all of your Snapchat friends to see.

"Bae"

You would have thought this would have vanished after it first surfaced in 2014. Nonetheless, it reappeared in 2015. There are better terms of endearment to use, I promise.

Frozen

Maybe 2016 will be the year that you will be able to walk into a department store and not be bombarded by Frozen propaganda. LET IT GO!

Selfies

In 2015, you took selfies from every angle, therefore, you have no angles left for 2016. Its time to stop.

Taking Pictures With Your iPad

I'm talking to all of the Moms out there with your fancy new iPads…Its not cool. Please stop.

"Hipsters"

Now that everyone is a hipster, maybe everyone will revert back to being non-hipsters because its cool again? Who knows.

The fads of 2015 may vanquish, however, we all know there will be new trends-turned fads in 2016. Happy New Year and Good Riddance!

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.

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.
