Trying to write an article after finals kind of makes me feel like...well...

My head is full of unnecessary knowledge like ANOVA tests and Statistical equations, I will never need to know again in my life.

So here are some ways I like to de-stress after finals.

1. Christmas Music!

This may only relate to Fall semester but nothing gets me into the spirit and out of the classroom quite like the beautiful angels of Pentatonix.

2. Coming Home.

(Yes, this is my wonderful city, Pittsburgh.) Every time I come out of that tunnel, it gives me a sense of relief. Golden arches and beautiful buildings perfectly placed in a valley that opens up and you know, you're home.

3. Taking a well deserved bath.

Shout out to Lush Cosmetics for making products so relaxing I literally fell asleep within the first five minutes of me sitting down.


4. Netflix

Binge watching Netflix in bed holding hot chocolate is just what you need right now.


5. Sleep

So simple, right? Nothing feels quite like retiring your exhausted body to a mattress that feels like a warm hug, smells like clean laundry, and looks like nobody has been here since sometime in August, then just taking a quick 15-hour nap.

So go get some rest and relaxation. We all need a little TLC.

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.

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.
