10 Anna Kendrick Quotes We Can All Relate To

Whether you've seen her in Twilight, Pitch Perfect, or read her book, Scrappy Little Nobody, Anna Kendrick gives genuine, authentic advice. She shows us how there is something special in being real and not putting up with any fake behavior. Here are ten Anna Kendrick quotes about being yourself, fashion, love, and going after what you want.

1. “I think a gentleman is someone who holds the comfort of other people above their own. The instinct to do that is inside every good man, I believe. The rules about opening doors and buying dinner and all of that other 'gentleman' stuff is a chess game, especially these days.”

2. “To me, accessorizing is the most fun part of an outfit. While I don't think you can't rely on accessories to make a dress that isn't working work, I do love jewelry and handbags more than anything.”

3. “I get really excited every time there's a female character who is really strong because a lot of females in film are really soft.”

4. “I feel like you can't get an audience to like your character if she's actually cool, but you can if she's trying to be cool and sometimes fails.”

5. “I've never really gone for the razzle-dazzle types: no quarterbacks, no flashy guys, and no Prince Charmings.”

6. “If I took myself too seriously, I would be a mess every day because the world keeps my ego in check.”

7. “I love rules and I love following them, unless that rule is stupid.”

8. “I gave up on being nice. I started putting more value on other qualities instead: passion, bravery, intelligence, practicality, humor, patience, fairness, sensitivity. Those.”

9. “Having to fight for the thing you want doesn't mean you deserve it any less."

10. “The crazy wants out.”

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.
