Pinterest Runs My Life
Theresa Niemczyk

I wake up every day and check Pinterest for what I want to wear. My actual wardrobe is nothing like my cyber wardrobe but I make do with what I have. I trade in my designer cyber clothes for my cheap clothing store somewhat look-alikes.

I look at all the amazing newest trends of makeup with all the bright colors, sparkles, and glitter glamour. Then I put on my routine foundation, blush and mascara. Sometimes I mix things up by adding eye shadow, eyeliner, and lipstick. Overall my makeup does not take more than thirty minutes and more than likely it only takes about ten. Let’s be real if I had the time and skill I would do these very elaborate designs but I have neither so I call it good enough.

I look at all the amazing hair styles. My hair is really long and goes down pretty far on my back so I have plenty to work with. If I’m feeling really fun I take the two hours to curl my hair but it needs to be something special or I need to do something with my hands for a while. Most morning I wake up shake my hair and leave it to all its wild crazy curly waves. My hair that I affectional refer to as “The Lion’s Mane.” Sure it is not the beauty of that Pinterest has but it is the beauty of sleeping in a little longer rather than doing my hair.

Sometimes I get a little crazy and have leftovers for breakfast. It is not those beautiful artisanal food that Pinterest has to offer but it is more than likely box mac-n-cheese or freezer pizza which makes for an amazing breakfast. Sometimes n the weekend I will make waffles but they are freezer waffles and its usually 11 in the morning but that is as close to it gets for a fancy breakfast for me.

I make sure that I pick out a healthy snack that I have spent so much time picking out and making sure it will keep me full for the day because there is nothing worse being hungry at school. So I take my time putting my Poptart in my back pack in hopefully a place where it will not get smashed. Although it probably will get smashed and I am okay with that. I prefer to tear my food rather than bite into it. I read that on Pinterest that it could stain your teeth although I do not remember if Poptarts were on that list. I only tear the easy food though. You will not see me tearing a sandwich or burger but a dinner roll for sure.

I am not the kind of girl who plans her wedding on Pinterest for two reasons. One: I plan on not spending a ton of money on my wedding and would rather buy local or semi-local rather than buying online. Two: I have better things to do with my time on Pinterest like looking up cats that I will never own or workout plans I will never actually do.

I spend time looking up how to solve my acne and dry skin problems but untimely I spend my night washing off my makeup and showering. I do not want to take up too much time getting ready for bed because lying in bed before falling asleep is primetime to plan out my next day on Pinterest that I will more than likely not actually follow.

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.

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.
