Fate Doesn't Happen By Accident...

When the stars align, fate hits you in the face and destiny is there to watch it all happen.

Fate Doesn't Happen By Accident...
Tyler Sanders

Have you ever had a memory that you look back on and all of a sudden...BAM! Destiny, fate, the lining of the stars and planets or whatever you call it hits you in the face? Almost like the kool-aid man coming through the wall next to you and saying "OH YEAH. THAT'S SOME GOOD DESTINY THERE!" Cause we all know that's how it works.

Whether it's how you met your other half, best friend, someone you call family, got a certain job or maybe just had some lucky moment. We've all been there. We've all realized that after some chain of events (usually crappy ones), something good happened. Something we cherish and will never forget.

Maybe it was a hard relationship(s) that set you straight to find someone who has fixed everything in life. They became your knight in shining armor and swept you off your feet. Showing you a whole new world and opening up your heart to something new. They brought you a feeling of bliss that you thought you understood before. Fate brought you to this person.

Or was it you playing your cards right to have a certain outfit on or maybe go somewhere at the perfect time. You ended up finding something that made your bad days turn around. It was almost as if you pulled the golden ticket that day. It was the stars aligning.

What if it was a chain of events from meeting one person to the next and so on. Maybe that one person has helped you change your life around for the better. That person opened up so many opportunities that would still remain a fantasy if you never said "hello" to them. That's your destiny.

We always here blah blah it's in your cards, it's your fate, it's your destiny. Well, it's true. Maybe we don't all believe in that hooblah that some fortune teller would tell you. Or believe in luck, superstition and card readings. But out of all of it, this is something you have felt.

Destiny, fate or whatever you decide to believe it to be, it will always find a way into your life and when you remanence on everything just be thankful the stars picked you that day.

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?

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.
