Because there's nothing like a new year to remind students that their life is falling apart.

1. Work out more

You'll have to lose the freshman fifteen somehow.

2. Get enough sleep

After pulling all-nighters for finals, it makes sense to try and sleep more.

3. Wash dishes right away

Nobody wants moldy dishes filling up their room.

4. Keep your room clean

Nobody wants to be known as the really messy roommate.

5. Save money

College won't pay for itself.

6. Study more for classes

You can't just fly through college with only C's.

7. Stop procrastinating

I know rewatching The Office sounds more fun than a paper, but you can't major in "The Office". (That would be cool, though).

8. Spend more time with friends

Friends are always worth the time and effort, hang with them at every chance. Chances are, they'll help you unwind after classes.

9. Learn time management

Not only will you stop being late for classes, but you can finally figure out how to finish all your assignments on time without pulling all-nighters.

10. Start going to the tutors

You'd be amazed how much the tutors can help with any class.

11. Dedicate one night to self-care

Spend one night a week focusing on yourself, whether that be doing a face mask, playing your favorite game, or whatever will help relieve stress and help you take care of yourself afte rthe very stressful college week.

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.
