What To Do the Night Before Your Exam

This list is a foolproof list of steps you should take before your final tomorrow to destress and prepare yourself with that A without studying!

1. Get a GOOD night of sleep! If you're used to not getting a lot of sleep, don't get too much. You might feel super groggy the next day. Get enough, though, so you feel rested and ready to go for the test tomorrow!

2. Wake up! This might make you say "duh!" but I know a lot of people who missed the final because they were up late studying and didn't get up in time to take the test. Make sure you set multiple alarms and ask your family to wake you up if you sleep heavily or they don't see you in the kitchen at a certain time.

3. Don't study the night before. As much as you might feel like you need to, cramming might result in you forgetting other information you learned on top of the information you're cramming, both due to stress and the fact that your brain doesn't have time to process and retain the information you think your absorbing due to lack of sleep. Memories are cemented as you sleep, so without giving your brain a chance to do that, your cramming goes down the drain.

4. Eat a good breakfast. Your brain won't have fuel to run off of if you don't! You can also prepare a meal with certain foods that are scientifically proven to help with brain stimulation!

a. oatmeal

b. granola or quinoa

d. whole wheat toast with peanut or almond butter

e. yogurt smoothie, yogurt parfait

d. eggs with veggies or cheese

5. Get your things ready! Last but not least, be prepared. There's nothing worse than rushing to get ready on exam day and already stressing out for something futile. Save your energy for the test! Get everything ready the night before, know the instructions, what you have to bring, wear, etc.

Good luck on your exam! If your exam is tomorrow, don't stress! You've got this!

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.
