Trial And Error

Thriving for less worries and less craziness.

Trial And Error
Captured by MGG

My favorite part about the ocean is feeling so small.

Fewer worries, fewer emotions and less craziness in the world for those few moments are always worth it. Nowadays, while watching and hearing about the craziness in this world, it’s challenging to choose to focus on the good parts.

Everyone has a different interpretation of this world. We have the choice to see this world as deadly, cruel and destructive. We can see it as hopeless and depressing.

Even though I do get in those funks sometimes where I get sad about what our world has been, I see it as a perfect time to have a chance to make a difference and experience true love with real people. In my opinion, our world needs more people who aren’t going to be afraid to forgive, who aren’t going to be afraid to love people without fearing of not being loved back, who aren't afraid to go against the norm or help as many people as you can without asking for anything in return. Things aren’t going to go perfectly by any means, and people aren't always going to agree with you or appreciate you.

Life is a big game of trial and error. The beauty of this is finding out the real people of the world, helping people in need and finding true happiness in whatever that maybe.

Let’s be less focused on the hating and more focused on things that actually matter by caring for one another through thick and thin and realizing this life isn’t forever.

Always find the good in the world, even if it’s hard to recognize, because life is too dang short for negativity.

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.
