Top 5 Things To Accomplish Over Break

Christmas break is a time of joy. It is a time to take a real break from college and just take time to relax. Here is a list I have came up with of the top things to do over break.

1. Sleep

Break is a magical time away from school work to catch up on sleep. Forget the endless hours you spent awake working on school work and just rest. Sleep in till noon. Catch up on the sleep you need.

2. Catch Up On TV Shows


Break also allows for you to catch up on on the TV shows clogging up your DVR. Finish those seasons. Watch all of the finales. Find out who had won those reality shows you have been neglecting.

3. Binge Watch

Eventually, you will run out of TV shows you have recorded. That allows for the great activity known as binge watching. Over break, binge watching becomes some sort of sport. It is almost a competition to see how many series you can finish in the month long break. Good Luck.

4. Love Your Pets

While at school, you miss out on the opportunity to love your pets on a daily basis. Break gives you the chance to love and pet your animals all day every day. They missed you just as much as you missed them.

5. See Old Friends

Being home over break gives you the opportunity to catch up with old friends. In most cases, you probably haven't seen these friends in months so take advantage of it. Go hang out, grab lunch, see a movie. Anything. You won't regret it.

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.

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.
