So you've been to the beach every year for the past five years...you hate skiing like you hate 7 a.m. classes...if the typical spring break destinations sound bland and boring, here are some fresh destination ideas for you. Ride solo or bring a squad, you're guaranteed to have fun at these less explored spring break spots.

Portland, Maine

Explore the beautiful state of Maine, with temperate weather and beautiful shoreline, Portland is definitely a destination. Featuring a huge art and theatre culture, Portland has lots to offer from every perspective: art, food, outdoor rec, spas, nightlife and more. Try some fresh Maine lobster, sit on their scenic shores, or try to get a selfie with a moose!

New York City, New York

We all know about the hustle and bustle of New York City, but have you been there? If the answer is no, perhaps your spring break trip could feature Times Square, famous NYC style pizza, Broadway, and bumping nightlife.

New Orleans, Louisiana

New Orleans is an optimal travel destination year round. The city is alive with music and culture, and you can never go hungry here! Explore the French Quarter and their numerous parks and museums, after you go to Bourbon St. of course.

Phoenix, Arizona

The natural wonder of the Phoenix desert should be enough to draw you to the southwest. Hike rock formations, explore natural rivers, bike through the city, take walks through their canals or explore Pheonix's LGBTQ district. Phoenix is meant for an active attitude and adventurous souls.

Cedar Point, Sandusky, Ohio

If you're an adrenaline junkie, look no further than the rollercoaster capital, Cedar Point Amusement Park located in Sandusky, Ohio. With 18 thrilling coasters, there will be no shortage of screams here. Get a weekend pass and test your limits, can you make it on all of them?

Yellowstone National Park

If you love camping and the great outdoors, a national park like Yellowstone is the perfect place to plan your spring break. Go on wildlife tours, test your hand at photography or relax by some natural hot springs. The park is located in Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming, so there's plenty os surrounding cities to explore as well. Sounds like a great road trip!

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.

So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

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.
