11 Signs You Know You're Ready For It To Just Be Summer Already
Jenna Pizzi

As it continues to snow, all I keep thinking about is summer. Being home tanning with your friends on the beach.. what could be better?

Here are signs when you know you're ready for the sunshine and tan lines:

1. You're already shopping for bathing suits

You're lying if you say you haven't even started looking online. (Don't forget to ask mom and dad for that beloved credit card.)

2. You start sending pictures from last summer in your group chat

Seeing all of the good times that you guys had will most definitely put you in the summer mood. Beach pictures, house parties and, most importantly, the food. You know you miss it.

3. You won't stop complaining about how pale you are

Get this girl some Vitamin C, pronto!

4. You start making plans with your school friends about when you're visiting

The withdrawal will be real but that's why there is always time for a little road trip!

5. You spend a little more time at the gym

Yeah definitely don't look like this at the gym. The goal is to avoid every mirror in sight so I don't see the sweaty mess that I am. If I can't see it, maybe it's not real.

6. You decide it's time to start eating healthy

Aka, only eating two slices of pizza instead of four. Compromise.

7. You start to give up on your classes

Yup. Kimmy K on point right there. My mood every time I walk into class.

8. You're so over the cold weather

Bring on the shorts and tank tops.

9. You JUMP on those pre-summer sales

"Mom, I needed it. It was a two for one deal, how could I say no?"

10. You wear shorts even if it's a little warm out

You know you are sooo over your heavy coat and sweaters. It's time for shorts and t-shirts... but why doesn't the weather know that?

11. You have a countdown for Memorial Day Weekend

There is no better start to your favorite time of the year other than Memorial Day Weekend. Just you, your friends and some good times.

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. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
