Never forget the "dbag" jar.

The Man Who Hates Youths and Loves Cardigans

The amount of times someone can watch New Girl is unlimited. You just can’t ever get sick of Jess singing to herself, Winston’s unhealthy relationship with his cat, Nick’s awkward moonwalk, and Cece’s weird but cute relationship with Schmidt. But, most of all, you just can’t get enough of Schmidt in general.

If you’ve seen New Girl, you must know what I’m saying. There’s so many times you actually laugh out loud while binge-watching the series yet again when Schmidt just says the funniest things. Sure, it’s a little embarrassing when I’m in the library, supposed to be working, and Schmidt starts talking about his driving moccasins, the dislike he has for old people, and how his mom thought he was a girl for the first 13 years of his life. But, you’ve got to give credit where credit is due and Winston Schmidt deserves it.

From referring to his kimono as his “mono” to all of the flashbacks of fat Schmidt in college, we’ve all had to laugh at some point. His narcissism and unmatchable talent to lose things brought a lot of humor to the show. No one knows what’s coming when he walks into the loft living room and starts with, “Has anyone seen my…” Even though he is one of the funniest TV characters of all time, he can be extremely nice and loving. His bromance with Nick is incomparable and his real romance with Cece is just about the cutest thing ever. When push comes to shove, Schmidt would have done anything for his friends – like when he helps the hot mess that Jess is (but not without some critical comments.)

You can learn a lot of life lessons from Schmidt, even though he’s just a fictional character. He makes sure everyone knows when they’re wearing something weird, which American holidays are the “sexy ones”, and that manhood today is “about exfoliation, cheese courses, emotional honesty, and Paxil.” So, allow yourself to laugh out loud at about every single thing Schmidt says on New Girl because he truly is the funniest and you are definitely not alone in fangirling over him.

Well done, Max Greenfield. Thanks for the numerous laughs and the personal mantra, “Schmidt happens!”

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.
