"Natural Observations in an Unnatural World!"

Welcome back to our nature documentary about the lives of lesser-known species! Mates, 'ave we got some fantastic creatures for you to see today. First, we're gonna start off with that reclusive crittah known colloquially as "introverts". Believe it or not, these beautiful beasties are observed pretty much anywhere their far more recognizable cousins, "extroverts", can be found.

Introvertis totalis is distinguishable by two things: it only communicates with others of its kind once every other week and one other thing, but we'll get to that later.

Roight, let's look at a close up of a couple of these strange creatures. No, not that one! Crikey, it's ugly. Let's find another!

Oi mates, looky here at this beauty. We've gotta be extra quiet now, so we don't startle it. These things scare easily and when they get angry, they're mad as a cut snake!

Ah, and now we get to the second thing. See those round metal things on its face? For years, it was thought that they were simply an obscure organic appendage, but watch very carefully...there it goes...reaching up with one pale hand...and it did it!

It took those things off! Ace! While it has been scientifically noted that those round metal things can be removed without harm, permanent loss of them often results in vision impairment, for some odd reason.

Oi, here's another, in some form of hibernation. Its beady eyes seemed glued to the thing with all the scribbly lines in front of it. What we're now looking at is a magnificent form of a symbiotic relationship. That thing the introvert is holding is scientifically called a "book". Whata silly name, eh mate?

Now, 'ere's the amazing part: that introvert actually gains some form of nourishment from simply looking at that thing! Scientists still aren't sure what the "book" gets out of it, but it doesn't look harmed, so it must be mutually beneficial.

Because of their symbiotic relationship with "books," introverts can often be found in places called "libraries." In these peaceful enclaves, books gather in groups called catalogs, nesting on the tiny outcrops in the cliff faces known as shelves. Here is where the introvert can find itself at its most relaxed. In fact, some introverts even dedicate their lives to caring for the books that provide them with such a home.

Well, now that's one exciting critter, am I right, mate? Bully for them, but now we've gotta hustle over to our coverage of "Frogs' Mysterious Musical Affinity for Rainbows," but be sure to tune in next week when we explore the introvert's mating calls!

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.
