Dogs are one of God's greatest gifts and I am so lucky to have grown up with dogs always in the house. Rescuing Hamilton was one of the best things to have happened in my life, and by doing so, I not only gained a pet but a best friend. Even though I have had other dogs, Hamilton is the first dog in my life that sees me as his mom. He loves to follow me around and has to always sleep plastered to my side. I am so lucky to have him in my life because he is truly amazing.

About Hamilton:

  • Age: Hamilton is a rescue, so we think he is about four years old.
  • Weight: 15 pounds
  • Where he was born: Fort Myers, Florida
  • Favorite Food: Sugar Cookies
  • Current Location: Naples, Florida
  • Nicknames: Hammy and Jamón
  • Best Friend: My great-grandmother Paqui, who he loves to watch over.
  • Favorite toy: Plastic water bottles (Doesn't care if it's currently the water you are drinking!)

5 Random Facts about Hamilton:

1. He loves to randomly sprint around the house. He gets so excited that he doesn't watch where is going which leads to him constantly running into things.

2. He loves to greet people by kissing their mouth (Beware if your mouth is open, that will just incentivize him more).

3. He often sleeps as the little spoon in my arms.

4. Loves to befriend anyone regardless of species.

5. Loves to steal food from your hands or plate.

3 Places Hamilton Loves To Go With His Human:

1. Loves to go on road trips, doesn't matter the destination. His last road trip was to Washington, DC.

2. The car ride back from the groomers.

3. Any place his humans go.

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.
