College makes any student fall into the routine of being extremely unhealthy and unable to make time to better yourself. It's essential that all college students live their life while feeling their best. These tips will alter any college student's lifestyle for the better!

1. Use organizational techniques to plan out your day

Whether this means having an agenda or using a calendar on your laptop, it's necessary that you have your day plan out so you are able to keep on top of your classwork and extracurriculars. It's crucial that you know how your day is planned so you can manage your time wisely.

2. Change your sleeping habits

Every college student knows the struggle of staying up late and working on that assignment and project that is due, but it's necessary that you learn to adjust your sleeping habits so you have the necessary amount of time to sleep every night. Students who have bad sleeping schedules are more prone to do worse in school.

3. Go to the gym and work out

Attending gym programs that your college might offer you such as spin cycle, bodypump, or zumba might help you enjoy working out even more because of how different it might be from your daily workout routine. Trying something new might make you enjoy working out more than you do right now.

4. Eat the right amount of calories/portion your plate right

To have the perfect diet is to eat the right amount of calories and eating all the essential foods every day. Counting your calories could be hard, but anyone with a smartphone these days could download an app that could count them for you!

Altering your life in college could make you create decisions that make you feel happier, healthier, and feel more awake every 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.

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.

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.
