Phases Of Being Outside During the Summer
Wiltshire

Now that it's getting warmer and finals have come and gone, it's finally summer!

Yes, it's finally summer, the time of the year that we have all been waiting for. The days of laying out in the sun with your shades on and possibly a drink in your hand are in full swing.

But, sometimes, we're not always gonna be laying by the pool or at the beach. There are those days where it will be too hotand too humid and there isn't a body of water for us to jump in, and I feel like we've all been there.

So, here are the phases of being outside on those extremely hot days.

When you look out the window and see that it's sunny, and the weather report says that it's going to be a nice day -- no rain in the forecast at all.

You then get ready for the day. You put on a really cute outfit, fix up your hair and apply waterproof makeup so that nothing will budge.

Then, as soon as you have one foot out the front door, your hair turns into a huge frizz ball, and you have to put it up immediately. Goodbye, cute hair, nice knowing you.

After standing, or even walking, in the heat for two minutes, you're sweating profusely and desperately try to cool off by fanning yourself with anything close to you.

Instantly, the next thought that you have is:

"That's it, I'm done with the heat. I want to go inside where there is air conditioning, right now. I need the cold. I need water. I just need to be out of the heat."

You then finally find some type of ice cold drink and start to chug it immediately, hoping it will cool you down, even if it's just a little.

You retreat back home and as soon as you get inside, you sit in front of the fan and cool off for as long as your heart desires and stay inside for the rest of the day.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
