In today's day and age, everyone has the subconscious idea of FOMO, or Fear of Missing Out. Sometimes though it is okay not to do anything, just lay in bed and watch Netflix all day, or as they say in "Parks and Rec," "Treat yo self." In the fast paced environment of our lives sometimes you just need to have a day to yourself.

Here some ways you can just have a day to yourself;

1. Lay in Bed and Watch Netflix

Sometimes you just need to lay down and watch mind numbing television, or finish that series that has been sitting on your recently watched list for months. So pop some popcorn, crack a drink, get your favorite fuzzy PJs on, and wrap up in your favorite blanket.

2. Head to the Mall

Everyone thinks you need to go to the mall with your best friends, but sometimes you need to go by yourself. You get to spend the time in the shops you want to, and don't have to wait for people in the shops you don't want to be in. It gives you a chance to relax and shop at your own pace.

3. Go get Your Nails Done

People always think they need to go get their nails done with others, but lets be honest you don't even sit next to each other and don't even talk them. So ditch the friends and go by yourself get a mani-pedi even! Even guys can get their nails done

4. As Dona and Tom Say "Treat Yo Self"

You have some saved up money, or any money in general? Take it and treat yo self. We always worry about the future and saving money for it, but we forget to sometimes spend money on ourselves and treat ourselves.

So no matter how faced paced our lives get and how much we get caught up in the lives of others. Just remember always make time for yourself.

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.
