Doctors everywhere love them...citizens fear them...fruits are here to stay! But before you just start putting fruit into your vegetable salad, make sure that you know what really is in your fridge.

1. Avocado

Millenials really do ruin everything, even so-called vegetables like the avocado.Thank the round seed inside, which classifies avocados as fruit. Which just makes you think...where can we buy some avocado jelly? If we can have peanut butter and grape jelly sandwiches, why not peanut butter and avocado jelly sandwiches?

2. Cucumber

Cucumbers are slimy and a disgrace to all fruits. They don't deserve to be fruits.

3. Tomato

Have you ever had a nice glass of orange juice with your breakfast? Try a nice, cold glass of some slimy, nutritious tomato juice! It's twice as healthy and tastes ten times worse!

4. Kumquat

It's an apple...it's an orange...it's a kumquat! These taste just like oval-shaped oranges. Who knew that shapes taste different?

5. Pineapple

Even though this fruit has the word "apple," a well known fruit, in its name, most people still think it is a type of pine tree. Next time somebody asks you to name a fruit, make sure to include "pineapple" on that list!

6. Jicama

Sometimes, you just don't know what is going on. Yes, jicama is a fruit. But I believe it should be classified as a tuber, along with the potato, as you can put it in soup. Obviously, this is why "tomato" rhymes with "potato"...perhaps we should rename this fruit as "jotato," just to complete the soup trio.

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.
