Pressing Redo

If you could, would you?

Have you ever considered what moment you would go back and experience or even change if it was possible? This has always been one of my favorite questions because there are so many wonderful things that happen to a person, how could you only choose one? I have spent a lot of time in thought over this one question, but I finally came up with an answer. My answer.

If I could go back in time to change something I have already done, to have the option to redo something I wouldn't change what I had done, I would simply experience it again. I have no regrets for the actions I have taken, I am a firm believer that everything happens for a reason. As horrible as it sounds I would pick a time that brought me to my knees with sorrow and self doubt, because in this pain I found myself.

In this moment in time I questioned everything about the person I was because I wanted to know why, why this had happened to me, what I had done to deserve it. Pain and sorrow wear on a soul, but happiness is only best in the moment it was designed for. I believe going back to a moment of self questioning would change my outlook, I could understand just why. Maybe I could actually be okay with it.

Without the bitter the sweets would not be as sweet. Nothing can ever be worth it if there wasnt something in the way. How can one feel accomplishment if there were no hardships on the way? How can one appreciate genuine love when they have never feel heartache? Do you really know if you are high if you have never felt low?

So think about this, if you could go back in time and experience or change anything you have ever done; what moment would you choose?

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.
