My Top 10 Songs of 2016

I love music...plain and simple. I honestly despise the radio because it replays the same songs over and again. By then, that "new hit" that keeps playing quickly becomes old and outplayed. That is why Spotify is life. Through Spotify, I have discovered several amazing artists that I never would've found by listening to the radio. I recently received an email from Spotify saying that a playlist was created for me based on the songs that I played countless times throughout the year. Based on this 101 songs playlist, I decided to pick my top 10 favorite songs.

1. "Distraction"- Kehlani

Kehlani is a Contemporary R&B singer from Oakland, California who continues to become more and more well-known in the music industry. After being on "America's Got Talent," she started her career with a mixtape called "Cloud 19," followed by another mixtape called "You Should Be Here." Her voice is unique and beautiful. Check out her music on Spotify!

2. "No Problem"- Chance The Rapper

"If one more label try to stop me..." Every time this song comes on, a bolt of energy just runs through my body. I never get tired of it. This is an amazing song, along with his amazing mixtape.

3. "Child's Play"- Drake

This song was from the "Views" album that was a major success. This is probably my favorite song from the album.

4. "On The Way"- TWENTY88

This artist is actually Big Sean and Jhene Aiko combined. They created a magical album together, and they're going to release another one together soon. They're dating, in case you were wondering.

5. "Be Alright"- Ariana Grande

Hands down, she's one of my favorite artists. I love her soulful voice, and it gives me chills.

6. "Pink + White"- Frank Ocean

This is a slow song, but it is so beautiful. It took him forever to release his second album "Blond," but was his album all that it was hyped up to be? You decide.

7. "Zaddy"- Ty Dolla $ign


Yes, the girl's voice in the intro is indeed Keke Palmer!

8. "Die For You"- The Weeknd

Even though his new album is pretty recent, the year isn't over just yet! This is one of the most beautiful songs that I've ever heard. I mean just look at the title of the song.

9. "That's What I Like"- Bruno Mars


Bruno Mars' new album is EVERYTHING. Listen and find out for yourself.

10. "You Love It"- Roy Woods

For those of you who do not know Roy Woods' music, you're missing out on greatness!!

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.
