5 Things Nancy Pelosi Should Actually Be Clapping For

If you haven't yet heard President Trump gave a State of the Union Address and there has been a lot of talk about it.

I am not going to go into the address because there are so many other qualified individuals that have written on it and I strongly encourage you to read those articles, instead of the opinions of your relatives on your Facebook newsfeed.

What I am going to talk about though is this meme of Nancy Pelosi, our House Speaker, who begins to golf clap for President Trump as he states "reject the politics of revenge, resistance, and retribution, and embrace the boundless potential of cooperation, compromise, and the common good."


This GIF made me LOL and now I am going to use it for the common good with a list of things I wish Nancy Pelosi was clapping for.

1. U.S. Olympian Chloe Kim is the youngest woman to win the gold medal for halfpipe snowboarding at the 2018 Winter Games.

We all love the Olympic games and seeing our country play!! It is always such an exciting thing to see that not only did we take home the gold, but it also was by the youngest woman to compete in halfpipe snowboarding! Go, Chloe!!

2. Kendrick Lamar won the Pulitzer Prize for "DAMN."

Kendrick Lamar, a popular rap artist, released his album "DAMN" in 2018 and this album deserves every award out there! It truly is one of the most unique rap styles and profound lyrics that I have ever heard!

3. Zendaya took 300 kids from her hometown of Oakland, California to see "Black Panther."

First of all who doesn't love the talented and beautiful Zendaya, but then she just goes and does this! This is so just selfless and heartwarming to me. I am so glad that she is giving back to her community and not forgetting her roots. Also, Black Panther is an incredible film that everyone should see.

4. Every day, 200 million skittles are brought to this world.

Come on who doesn't LOVE skittles!!!

5. Someone just found $20 in their pants pockets!

Someone right now at this moment in the world just had their day flipped upside down from this incredible news!!

In conclusion, I hope this article wasn't taken too seriously and I hope you can just laugh along with me and rejoice in all of the positive things that are happening around us!

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.
