Makeup is one of the best parts of getting ready. You get yourself from a solid 4 to a definite 7.5 in a matter of minutes. It’s a time when you can socialize with your friends and sing along to some of your favorite jams before heading out to whatever you’re off to next.

If you’re the “makeup guru” of your friend group, you probably agree with me. At the same time, there are so many nuances that pop up when it comes to being the “know it all” of getting ready. If you’re the makeup guru of your friend group, you probably agree with these 11 things.

1. Your friends almost always ask you to do their makeup for the night

You really enjoy doing their makeup, but at the same time, you’ve got to get ready too.

2. If you don’t have time, they’ll settle for just the eyeshadow or a nice contour

If you must...

3. Every time they go to Sephora or Ulta, they invite you to tag along

You’re honored. Your bank account is not.

4. For every birthday, they get you some sort of makeup product

Thank goodness they understand you.

5. Whenever you’re not around, they ask you for makeup advice

What products should I get with my Sephora gift card? Does a red lip look good with this outfit?

6. You get lots of compliments on your makeup

Your friends really know how to gas you up.

7. When you compliment your friends on their makeup, they’re honored

But really, your friends are beautiful either way.

8. You sometimes worry about running out of makeup

You have so much that TBH you probably couldn’t run out of makeup, but you worry sometimes because you love your products too much.

9. You wash your makeup brushes more than usual

You’ve got to keep your skin clear when your brushes have touched everyone else’s skin.

10. You offer your friends unsolicited makeup advice

You regret it later, but you really just want the best for them.

11. You high-key love that they know how much you enjoy makeup

#Blessed to be here, ladies and gentlemen.

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.
