The month of December can mean many things - holidays spent with loved ones, time away from school, cold nights and fireplaces, and a common over-indulgence on nutmeg in everything that is edible is just a few frequent incidences when 'tis the season. However, one overwhelmingly relatable occurrence that most seem unable to escape is the tendency to shove as much food into your human body as quickly as possible. Shockingly, in a stunning feat that has astonished the world, Martha Fatout managed to evade the scourge that haunts so many this holiday season with a net gain of zero pounds.

"Usually, most people experience some fluctuation after all the feasting," remarked Fatout. "But this year, Jenny Craig wishes she was me."

Doctors and scientists alike are stumped as to how this possibly could have happened. "This case is truly a curiosity," commented Fatout's personal physician, Dr. WeichtenWächt, M.D. "Of all the female women whose gravitational pull I have overanalyzed through the years, Fatout presents a truly unusual situation."

In the wake of her viral Christmas miracle, Fatout has been the recipient and become the face of new businesses and campaigns centered around weight loss. A collaboration with Nutrisystem in the works, which will specialize in holiday foods.

"Martha is so brave for telling her story to the world. It's about time that we acknowledged the hidden struggles of women, especially the struggles of those who haven't gained a single pound in the aftermath of the holiday season," stated Nutrisystem spokeswoman Christine Martinez.

Fatout expressed optimism at the future, referencing to her new book deal on weight loss, slated for publication in June of 2020 with OxfordPress. "Who needs a new year's resolution to exercise? All the time I spent in the past worrying about my own weight can now be more productively redirected into shaming other people!"

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.
