These 10 songs hold a place in my heart. They bring back feelings of nostalgia from my childhood and make me want to share them with the newer generations.

10. What Is Love - Haddaway

"What is love?" This song!

9. Mambo Number 5 - Lou Bega

"1,2,3,4,5 everybody in the club come on lets ride"... to an ideal future where this catchy song becomes popular again! Who doesn't need a little bit a Lou Bega?

8. Save Tonight - Eagle Eye Cherry

Save this song, fight the break of dawn. "Come tomorrow" and we will revitalize this song! The simple but soulful tune has a way of resonating in the minds of listeners... literally it is now stuck in my head.

7. What's Up - 4 Non Blondes

"And I said hey... what's going on." With lyrics like this What's Up could be the anthem of the 21st Century.

6. You Get What You Give - New Radicals

"Don't let go.You got the music in you... you got a reason to live" The stylistically segmented syllables make for a hit especially when combined with the inspirational lyrics about not giving up.

5. Breakfast at Tiffany's - Deep Blue Something

"And I said what about Breakfast at Tiffany's?" A throwback within a throwback, this song references the movie Breakfast at Tiffany's.

4. Torn - Natalie Imbruglia

A mellow but soulful song with a great beat and powerful lyrics. What's not to love?

3. Sex and Candy - Marcy Playground

A melancholic tune that "surely is a dream"!

2. Barely Breathing - Duncan Sheik

"Cause I am barely breathing..." thinking about how much this song moves me. It is one of the few that I can listen to on repeat.

1. My Own Worst Enemy - Lit

"Please tell me why..." this song stopped being popular. I have added it to all my nostalgia playlists. It has just enough angst, rock and roll and regrets to make an amazing anthem for those in their twenties.

Honorable Mention: I'm too Sexy by Right Said Fred

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.
