A Playlist From The iPod Of A Middle Schooler In 2013

Social media was just on the cusp of being in nearly every aspect of our lives, Obama was entering his second presidential term, and internet trends began to reach people by the billions. People quoted Perks of Being a Wallflower on their sepia-toned Tumblrs, showed their friends this new thing called "Vine", and walked outside in galaxy leggings. The world was a strange and interesting place, and even more so when looked at through the eyes of a middle schooler. While it hasn't even been a full decade since 2013, the world has changed so rapidly that trends back then feel like relics from another era. Here are a few songs that will have you singing along in the name of 2013... right after you put your Maybelline Baby Lips lip balm on.

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.
