Read Me Everyday For Positive Thoughts

We are living in a time where, for some, the changing happening around the nation is seen as strong, impactful, and living up to some individuals values. But that is not the case for millions of others.

Some people are waking up and being greeted with the news that they are going to be affected in someway or another. Everyday, a new group of minorities are targeted and impacted.

If this is the case for you, I want to remind you of some things. If you need to be reminded of this everyday, then read this everyday. But remember, you are WORTH IT.


1. You will never be silenced

You will use your first amendment right to stand up for what you believe in.

2. You have the power

If you're a high school student, you can do it. If you're a college student, YOU can do it. If you're a parent, YOU can do it. Everyone has the power of CHANGE in their hands.

3. You have my support

And so do MILLIONS of others; I promise you.

4. You will make it

Don't think about the alternative ending. Set your goal and let that be your vision.

5. You CAN push through

Don't let the failure demon drag you down. You are so much stronger than that.

6. Wake up everyday with the urge to fight

I know this is a tough one, but if you need to cry and think about the horrible things do it, but always remember you have to wake up the next day with the urge to fight. It doesn't have to stop when the tears are too much to handle.

7. Listen to the people who disagree with you the most

Nothing will happen if you don't get a change to work with the other side. There can be some common ground that might save a lot.

8. Always remember that it ismore than okay to fail at first

If you don't succeed the first time, always remember to get back up and try again. You never know when the right time will come.

9. Surround yourself with people who want to fight the same fights

Make a group, join a group, or even make donations to organizations online. When you are a part of something special, you know you are doing something big.

10. Take care of yourself

Love what you do. Do it with a passion. Do what you do for yourself and the community.

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.
