Get A Hotel Room

Or Any Other Extravagant Thing You Need To Reset

Get A Hotel Room

Get a hotel room. One with a king bed and a jacuzzi tub. Splurge for the late check out time. Sometimes all it takes to reset is a nap. Other times it's room 212 at the Grandstay. Run yourself a bath. Turn on your favorite music. Use the entire bottle of stress relief bubble bath. Close your eyes and think about nothing. Breathe. You're still thinking about work, school or the things bothering you. So turn the music up. Sink a little lower into the water. Be present in the nothingness of this moment. Breathe. Drain the tub, dry off and crawl into that beautiful king size bed. Cover yourself in that lavender lotion from head to toe. Nothing beats the smell of those lovely fresh white sheets or how your silky soft skin pairs so perfectly with them. The way your head seeps deep into those pillows makes you forget about everything outside of these walls. Breathe. Turn on the TV that's hanging on the wall. Something funny. Romance movies make you feel lonely. Action movies make you want to be doing more. Comedy makes you laugh, you need to laugh. Breathe. Fall asleep to your favorite song and dream the sweetest dreams. No nightmares tonight. Breathe. When you wake up run another bubble bath. With the sunshine peaking through the windows, enjoy this bath just as much as the one last night. Breathe. When you check out smile at the front desk employee.

Smile the entire day today. Smile because you feel refreshed. Smile because for the last twelve hours your mind was clear. Smile because you can and you have a gorgeous smile. There is no instruction manual for life. Sometimes you have prayed all the prayers you can pray. You have tried all those things that are supposed to make you feel better. Sometimes you need to get a hotel room. Reset. And just breathe.

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.

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.
