Questions I Have About Lilly Pulitzer

It seems that Lilly Pulitzer for Target has taken the entire sorority world by storm. Actually, by hurricane or tornado would be more like it. While girls stood outside Target stores nationwide to fight each other tooth and nail for the summer, I'm still sitting here confused by the entire concept.

1. Why so much color?

I have never seen so many variations of neon pink and green in my life. Don't get me wrong, I appreciate a little pop of pink every once and a while. But, really? Every neon pastel smashed together in one pattern? It's all a little too much for a girl who's main colors in her closet are black and grey.

2. What are with these agendas?

Yes, I will admit that I have owned a Lilly agenda at one point in my life. But every time I pulled it out, I just thought to myself, "why did I buy this?". Some how I would always spill coffee over all the pages, accidentally rip out complete weeks, and pull out the spiral of the agenda until it was basically an oxymoron for using it to plan out my life. And on another note-- can we just talk about those little stickers that come with the planner? Are you actually supposed to use the stickers for "me day" and "weekend getaway"? Either my life is very boring, or these stickers have a very impractical use. Let's be real, a weekend getaway in college is a long nap after a term paper is due, not a tropical cruise.

3. At what point is it too much?

Do you really need matching Lilly sunglasses, highlighters, pencils, pens, scarves, and bedspread set? Because at some point I think you just might start going slightly cross eyed.

4. Do you actually like it, or do you think you should like it?

This can actually be said about the majority of popular trends today. I am for trying out new looks, but you can put down the pastel and walk away if you want to, just saying.

5. What are with the sorority prints?

Girls go mad crazy over trying to get their sorority an official Lilly print. I'm still not really sure why because they legitimately all look the same to me. But hey, keep on sharing those links for people to vote for your sorority on Facebook, I'm sure you'll get there one day.

6. Is this actually practical?

As much as I would love to buy beach towels, flip flops, and sundresses for every moment of summer-- I sadly do not live at the beach, and I would much rather prefer a baseball hat and a T-shirt.

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.
