There is nothing better than summer, am I right?

Summer is one of the best times of the year. You got no school work to do or anything. It is a time to relax and spend time with friends and family. The weather is nice and it is just in my opinion one of the best seasons around.

My favorite part about summer is specifically spending endless hours with my friends; we are basically together everyday 24/7. My one friend, her mom, and I always go on adventures throughout our home state and it is just so much fun. Additionally, it is fun to just hangout with a big group of people whether we all go to the lake or go out to eat.

Since I am in college now, summer is precious time that I cherish. It is basically the only few months of the year that I am home with my best friends making life long memories. It is fun to just sit by the beach or lake and just talk and relax.

On the other hand, it is time that I get to spend with my family. My family and I usually travel to a different place each summer for about a week. Traveling is one of my favorite things to do and summer is when I do most traveling whether it be to the beaches of Florida or the hiking trails in northern NJ. It is also nice that I am able to spend a lot of my time with my grandparents. Sometimes we will go out to dinner and it is just nice to sit down and relax.

Since I am from NJ, there is nothing like summer down the shore. A typical beach day is so ideal in the summer. It is so fun to go down the beach, and then later eat on the boardwalk and get some good ice cream. If your from Jersey you know that there is not a lot of people that do not love the shore. Most of the people I know love the shore and usually spend at least a couple days at the beach in the summer. It is nice that I do not have to drive that far to be able to go to the beach for a day.

Lastly, my favorite part about summer is just the weather. I am a person that is not a fan of the cold. Therefore, I like the summer weather where it is warm, the sun is shining, and getting a tan.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
