Things I'm Thankful for
http://hotelbellwether.com

As the time of Thanksgiving comes up, we tend to give thanks for all that we have. However, during the time away from this great holiday, we usually tend to take what we have for granted and take advantage of the luxuries that we have. So here is a list of all the things that I'm thankful for.

1. Family- my family has been through a lot, but we've always been able to get through them whether it was good or bad. My family has been my biggest support system since I was little. My mom and brother were always so supportive of what I do and I can't thank them enough.

2. Friends- they've been my support system since I can remember. Some I've known longer than others but they have always been there for me, and I know I'll always be there for them. They have helped me create great memories and beautiful experiences such as having the time of my life dancing, playing league ball, or playing pick up games. These people are sure to be some of the most influential people I'll forever remember.

3. Sports- the sports world has been such a blessing to me that I can't even describe. I have made friends here and have been able to have some great memories with them. Sports has literally been the description of my life and they have been my escape from stress, and frustration. There's a reason why it's my major in college and there's no other major I'd rather be in.

4. Education- I'm thankful for my education because it is a real blessing to be able to go to school. The fact that I'm at a high level of education, I'm able to expand on my knowledge and be able to educate others on the meaning of school and the importance of getting an education.

5. The clubs I'm in- I'm am so thankful for the clubs I'm in. Not only are they fun and exciting but they also provide an escape from the stress of school and the work. The clubs I'm in have also provided me with great relationships that will last a lifetime. Most of all the clubs make me happy. They allow me to be myself and do what I love to do. These clubs are forever in my heart and so will the people in them.

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.
