It’s finally happening. In the midst of ordering graduation dresses and announcements, making dinner reservations, and everything else, the realization that I’m graduating in a few short months is at the forefront of my mind.

Honestly, it’s really hard to believe because it feels like I just started college, and now it’s over in the blink of an eye. Reflecting on the last three and half years, it’s been amazing! College is such a ride: ups, downs and everything in between! Everyone gets to this point eventually, and while it’s bittersweet, it’s also really exciting! It can be a little daunting if you’re not sure what you’re doing yet, but at the end of the day you’re graduating from college with a degree and that’s a big deal!!

So, with that in mind, no matter how nervous or anxious you are about the days counting down, just enjoy the time you have left, and be excited for what’s to come after!! The world is your oyster (*graduating from college, and still don’t know what that expression means but I use it at least once a week. Oh well.) The point is, you have your entire life to figure out what to do with it, just spend your time doing things you enjoy, and celebrate when you do BIG THINGS ... like graduating from college!!!

So…… CONGRATS TO EVERYONE WHO’S MADE IT THIS FAR. WE DID IT!! Here’s to making the most of our remaining days of college, and continuing with a lust for life for the rest of it!

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.
