To put it nicely, 2016 was a strange year. One filled with tragedy, comedy, and overall very strange events. Of course, we could always count on the internet to take these events to the next level. Here are some of the most memorable:

1. Dabbing.

Cam Newton started it and the world followed.

2. Mannequin challenge.

Ahh, the Harlem Shake of 2016, because why wouldn't standing in a group of people holding an awkward position for a long time be fun?

3. Harambe.

The death of Harambe brought about a lot of backlash from the internet and quite a lot of memes.

4. The 2016 Election in general.

The 2016 election seemed to be the only thing being talked about and the internet played a huge role in that.

5. Joe Biden Memes.

Trump's win in the 2016 election brought some rather funny and kinda adorable Joe Biden memes. Proving once again, this is one of the silliest VPs of all time.


6. Michael Phelps Memes.

The Olympics were amazing and so is this face that Michael Phelps made that took the internet by storm.


7. Evil Kermit Memes.

This image of Evil Kermit brought about a sensation of internet memes that were not only funny, but also oh so relatable.

8. Pokemon Go.

To be honest, I'm still not sure what it is, but I do know that the internet was obsessed with it and I saw multitudes of people walking around/ running trying to catch their pokemon.

2016 was a strange year. Sure, it had its funny moments, but Im happy to say goodbye 2016 and hello to 2017 and all of its internet sensations.

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.

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.
