The World Cup 2018 is right around the corner, and millions if not billions of fans, are waiting to see the magic unfold. From strong teams like Argentina, Germany and Brazil, to absolutely amazing goals like from the 2014 World Cup with James Rodriguez's chest control and volley goal, some of the most amazing and unexpected things can happen in the World Cup. As the most watched event in the world, there are some huge reasons why you should be excited to watch the 2018 World Cup in Russia!

1. The haircuts

This is honestly a funny one because there are haircuts that are extraordinary, ordinary and down-right ugly. Of course, this one is down there. This was Ronaldo (no, not the Portuguese one, the Brazilian one) during a World Cup game with Brazil before he retired. He shocked the world with his haircut, as nobody expected him to embarrass himself like that.

2. The goals

Of course, could not have forgotten about one of the greatest goals in the history of the sport. Goals are what starts the fire in every fan's heart as well as the players'. Some players even try to give a little of their flair to the fans to make matters interesting. From amazing crosses into the penalty box, to beautiful goal conversions, this is what futbol is about. This is what the World Cup is about.

3.) The Celebrations

We have all seen them in every sport. The celebration is what gives the fans the other half of the thrill after the goal. There have been some unique celebrations over the course of history in futbol like Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang's signature front flip and of course, one of the first celebrations ever by Roger Milla, dancing by the corner flag. Some celebrations can be comedic and others can be for an important cause.

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.
