Open Letter To A Spoiled Brat

Spoiled Brat,

Why are you so entitled? Through the lenses you choose to dawn, it appears as though the world and those living in it owe you anything and everything. Whenever a decision is made, it is always your opinion that decides what happens, even if the majority is not in your favor. When the simplest thing upsets you, people are made to bend over backwards just to make you happy. You seem to think that the world revolves around you and refuse to operate within its confines. This really needs to stop.

The world is a complicated and often reveals itself to be an unfair place. It does not revolve around you, nor will it ever. This is a lesson that should really be learned now, before you are thrust out on your own, and Mommy and Daddy are no longer there to cater to your every whim. Expecting everyone to bend to your mulish expression and faux pout is just shear stupidity. There are those who may fold like wet cardboard caught up in gale force winds, but the majority of the population will send you a well placed condescending look and tell you to grow up.

Nothing should be handed to you. The calloused hands of your peers will tell a story of earning what they want. While you sit with arms crossed and a demanding countenance, others are busy working to get to where they want to be. You have no right to expect things handed to you on a silver platter. It's time that this simple fact of life clawed its way through your thick skull.

Good luck with all that do,

A Concerned Citizen

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
