The Final Chapter

It's time to turn the final pages on this season.

The Final Chapter
Stocksnap

This has been one of my favorite stories written by the Greatest storyteller.

It's the last semester of college and I'm turning the first page on the final chapter.

It's a little bittersweet, but the story that He has written for me doesn't end when I walk a crossed that stage in May. It may seem like it at the moment. It may seem terrifying and like nothing could ever come close to the magnificence of the story God has written for me over the past 4 years, but He is the greatest storyteller. He has a wonderful new story filled with countless chapters and adventures planned ahead of me.

But, it's not finished yet. I still have an entire semester to sit in the wonder and joy of this final chapter. I'm going to savor every last moment and part of this story, because I know that if I focus to much on the next book in His series for me called 'Life,' I am going to miss out on so much of what God has for me to learn in this final semester.

So, I'm ready. I've got my hand on the first page of this chapter and I'm ready to begin. I am excited and eager to see what He has planned next. But, I won't skip ahead. But rather, I will read each page with immense passion and wonder. I will have open eyes, open ears and an open heart to adventure through this last semester, this final chapter with God by my side.

I know this is short. But, I'm so eager and excited to start this final chapter, because I have a feeling it's going to be pretty fantastic.

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.
