A look into the British band.

McFly, one of my favorite bands. For years I have contemplated my favorite band member and my favorite songs, but since 2006, they have been top three of my favorites.

Formed in 2003, the British boy band released their first Room on the 3rd Floor which debuted at number 1 on the UK Album Chart, which made them the youngest band ever to have an album debut as number 1, a title taken from the Beatles.

This quad consists of Harry Judd on drums, Dougie Poynter on the bass guitar, Danny Jones is the lead guitarist, and Tom Fletcher, who you might know from the viral video of a dad and his baby blowing dandelions, is the lead singer.

So, here are my favorite McFly songs, in no particular order:

  1. Love is easy. This is my favorite song and music video by them. Not only is their music video so creative (they're recreating all of their album covers) it involves the fans, which is always a good thing. It's a great song and it constantly gets stuck in my head.

2. I Wanna Hold You. I love this song because not only does it involve more string instruments, like violins, Danny is the lead singer of this song.

3. Party Girl. This is one of their newer songs and it is the one that I hear the most. This upbeat party song can be heard on an episode of Pretty Little Liars. I like the pop based beat that the band used for this song. Also, the music video is pretty awesome.

4. Obviously. I LOVE this song, it’s super cute. I think this song is super relatable, it’s about a boy who loves a girl out of his league and tries to forget about her. What a typical love story. <3

5. Don’t Stop Me Now. Yes, this is a Queen cover. My mom loves Queen, so when I figured out that my favorite band covered one of my favorite Queen songs, it made the song even better.

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.

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.
