I loved the movie Bridesmaids. It was not only funny and witty, it was also full of applicable lessons. Every time I watch it, I seem to learn something new that I didn't know I needed to know and apply to my life. Here are 10 things I've learned from the hilarious movie Bridesmaids!

1. How to pump up your friends before going out

Some nights, the thought of going out does not seem very intriguing. But thank goodness that every squad has that one friend that knows how to drag you out of bed and into some heels.

2. That dancing is a source of stress relief

Between juggling school, work, and any personal issues we have going on, blasting music and dancing around with friends always seems to help relieve stress and make the problems fade away.

3. How to handle nosey roommates

It can be hard for others to realize that you would prefer that they do not take your things without asking, so maybe a note on your door could help clarify things and eliminate the risk of an argument with your "froomies."

4. When in doubt (and debt), be honest

In college, we are constantly eating out and ordering Starbucks at the library, so I've found it's best that when the invitation to go to Chipotle with your friends comes around, just be honest with them that you can not afford a rice bowl today.

5. How to dance my way out of a speeding ticket

On your way home for winter break, please make sure you are driving the correct speed or at least your cruise control is set to a decent speed. But, if time comes and those red and blue lights start following you on the highway, take a few notes from our friend Annie from Bridesmaids and give the officer a laugh, he may let you off with a warning.

6. Do not trust strangers or free tattoos

On a college budget, things that come along that are free are very intriguing. However, take note of what we should take if it's for free. T-shrits and protein bars are okay. Tattoos, on the other hand, are not.

7. Do not inflict your bad outlook or worries of relationships onto others that are happy


Whether you are fresh out of a relationship or stole cold single, seeing PDA could set you off. But, do not talk bad about love and relationships to people that are happy. That is just not cool, man.

8. How to ~blend in~

When moving to a new school where everyone has already made their friend groups, all you want is to fit in. Do not try to copy what everyone else is doing, but be yourself without making this whole transition about you.

9. Always try to get a good workout in and it's more enjoyable with friends

During our crazy schedules, it is important to keep up a good workout regime. Working out with friends brings enjoyment and positive results. Note: taking up sports with friends is also a good source of fitness!

10. No matter what, you'll always have that one friend that understands you

Lastly, life with throw you curve balls left and right, but the friends that stick by your side during the breakups, bad grades, rejection, etc. are the ones that you will have forever.

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.
