What or who lights up your world? If you could tell one person about the things that make you the most happy what would it be? Would you tell them about material things like money and your possessions or would you tell them about your experiences and the people who make your life worth living? When you think about the world we live in today, do you see the bad things or the good?

Make a list about all the good things you see each day, each week, each month. Read it to remind you about how good it can be instead of how bad. Sometimes the world can be so filled with the ugly that it's hard to remember that there is still anything good left in it.

If you could tell someone all about you with them never having seen you before where would you start? Would you go into telling them about your physical appearance; hair and eye color, height, weight? Would you start with your favorite TV show, or how you think the orange in the sunset is the most beautiful thing in the world. How long would you ramble about yourself until you got embarrassed and looked away blushing.

If you could list all of the things you loved, where would you place yourself on that list.

Sometimes I get the nighttime rambles where I ask myself all of these questions. Sometimes I try to think about answers to the world's problems, how I would fix things, if they could be fixed. At times like these I always like to think of a quote I once read but don't know the author of, "The trick is that as long as you know who you are and what makes you happy it doesn't matter how others see you."

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
