On Friday, America will be waving good-bye to Present Obama as President-Elect Donald Trump swears into office. Here's what to expect from the Trump Administration...

Trade- Trump wants to renegotiate NAFTA ('90s trade deal between the US, Canada, and Mexico). Then he wants to pull out of the TPP. That’s the trade deal between the US and 11 other Pacific Rim countries.

Energy- Trump plans to 'exnay' a bunch of federal rules on US energy production including oil, gas, and coal put in place to fight climate change. He’s said he’ll also make it easier for oil pipelines to move forward. Trump says this would boost job creation.

Lobbying Ban- Trump's calling for a five year-ban on White House and Congressional staffers taking lobbying jobs after they leave. He also wants a lifetime ban on White House officials lobbying for foreign governments.

Supreme Court- as in there’s been a job opening on the bench for almost a year, and Trump’s ready to fill it. A list of right- leaning names have been mentioned for the position.

Immigration- Trump will move to “cancel all federal funding to Sanctuary Cities” – aka cities that allow undocumented immigrants to stay without fear of being prosecuted or deported. He’s also said he’ll start deporting about two million undocumented immigrants with criminal records. And that he’ll hit ‘pause’ on immigration from regions with a history of terrorism that do not vet people coming into the US.

Obamacare- as in repeal and replace. Still working on the replace part.

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.
