5 Reasons To LOVE San Francisco

When I was little I always thought I would want to go to Disneyland or Disney World, but that changed when I visited San Francisco. I never wanted to go to those places after visiting. San Francisco literally has everything anyone could hope for.

1. It has everything A.K.A Chinatown

So while there are shops on every corner, the people are even better. The experiences. San Francisco has all the sights and the tourist attractions one could see in a giant city. They have one of the very first Chinatown's. Where the Asian population has shops and restaurants that you can find anything and everything.

2. The Golden Gate Bridge

As a high tourist attraction, the bridge has been there for countless years. As construction finished in 1939, it became a landmark to enter the city. It is a sight to see for many miles.

3. Union Square at Christmas

Union Square at Christmas time is gorgeous. There are shops around every corner! At Christmas, they set up an ice skating rink and a giant Christmas Tree. There is a giant Macy's, Saks Fifth Avenue, Tiffany and Co, and more.

4. Ghirardelli Square

You ever wonder where Ghirardelli Chocolate got its start? RIGHT HERE! The company originated in San Francisco. You still currently are still able to go walk in and see how they make the chocolate and are able to sample a few new seasonal candies they are working on.

5. Lombard Street

This is the craziest road I have ever experienced. Lombard Street has many curves and people have to drive very slow because of how the curvature of the road is. It is an experience to just sit and watch people drive down it.

There are so many more reasons like the trolleys, pier 39, the sea lions, the Giants, and even the 49'ers. Ultimately, San Francisco has many reasons to be loved.

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.
