6 Things That Are True If You're The Single Girl Who Gets Asked Advice From Your Friends In Relationships
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wghP8PXUKA4

There's a girl who is hardly ever actually in a relationship but she gives all the advice like she's in one. Her friends go to her with any questions or concerns they may have about a new boy they're seeing or maybe even one they've been dating a while. Even her guy friends may come to her for advice occasionally.

Everyone knows one, or maybe you are one. This one's for her.

1. You're usually the first person they come to with problems.

Is your bestie's boy acting a little sketchy? Has he not answered her message in a few hours? You might not know at that moment, but you're about to. She's also going to definitely ask you what to do about it.

2. You try to give your friends the best advice without self-experience.

Yeah, there is 0 on that resume. Well, okay maybe it's a little more than a 0, but it's not enough to be 100% sure that the advice you're giving them is correct.

3. Even when you have no idea what to say, you still try to give them advice.

This usually happens when you've never met the guy and you haven't been able to read him. Sometimes it's for other reasons, but it's mainly because you just generalize him as everyone else. Sorry.

4. Half the time your advice is better than people who are in relationships

Maybe it's just because you can look at it without actually putting a face to any of the people in the situation like another girlfriend would do with her boyfriend. Maybe it's because you're single and therefore not biased.

However, you aren't actually for sure. You'll still give your grade-A advice, though.

5. You live vicariously through your friends.

This only applies to the good parts of the relationship. Then you can ignore all the unpleasant parts of that relationship.

6. You're constantly asked why you're not in a relationship.

Have you ever heard "coaches don't play?" That's why.

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.
