A few weeks ago I wrote an article that listed 7 ways to tell your mom you got a piercing. I now have some experience as to what might happen.


1. She won't notice them.


Your plan is to try point number 1 from the previous article but she never notices them even when you deliberately play with them in front of her. So, you default to trying point number 7 and wait for the article to go live.


2. She fumes when you're not there to see it.

The article goes live and she reads it. You're upstairs but your sister and cousin are downstairs to witness the steam come out of her ears.


3. Your cousin texts you a warning

"Your mom knows about the piercing and she is mad that she had to find out by reading your article."


4. Your sister writes you warning text too.

"Mom's mad. I think you should just hide upstairs."


5. But she sent it to your mom by accident.


And then proceeds to hand her her phone when it dings.


6. Your piercings have been forgotten

Since your sister successfully, though unintentionally, distracted everyone into laughing fits about the situation, you're off the hook!


7. You breathe a sigh of relief and start sketching that tattoo design (I'm kidding mom, I swear).

A note for the reader: Unless you have a sibling that can somehow divert the attention, it's probably best to just tell her straight up. Just consider buttering her up first by doing the dishes or getting her her favorite Starbucks drink.

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.
