The Juice Is Back!

O.J. Simpson, the man, the legend, and the ex -convict? O.J. has been released from prison and guess what, it wasn’t for murder.

He was sentenced to jail back in 2007 for a robbery, he claims he was trying to take back his memorabilia. Because of this incident,O.J. was sentenced to a total of 35 years in jail for armed robbery.

This was crazy? This was the man who got off for alleged murder.

First thing first, O.J. should have been acting like a model citizen after this Murder trial he got of off.

Secondly, who in the world gets sentenced 35 years for a robbery and kidnapping, people get less time for premeditated murder.

I have mixed feelings on this matter. If we are going to talk about the robbery and that jail sentences, well it was unfair. Let’s give justice where it’s due.

The man, was I suppose you say down on his luck. After being acquitted of the murders of his ex-wife and her boyfriend, O.J. was shunned from everything he knew. This causes him to down spiral.

He started acting out, especially after finding out, he no longer had to be someone's hero or idol. This also led to him having no money, friends, or sense of direction, thus leading to this robbery gone bad.

I find it kind of funny that O.J. was sentenced to prison for this armed robbery on the same day his verdict was announced for the murder trial, for the same amount of time he would have done for the murders.

O.J. first parole hearing would be July 2017. Surprise, he was able to leave.

Flash forward to October 2017 and O.J. is once again a free man to do as he pleases. Let’s get real, don’t you think he will end right but up in jail again.

He has once again, no family, no friends, no money. What’s a man suppose to do? I guess he’ll do what all rich retired sports players to… whatever that is.

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.
