What Your LDW/Hurricane Hermine Drink Says About You

Everyone has a different method of preparing for Labor Day Weekend and the Hurricane of September. Whether you're battening down the hatches, stocking up on food and water, or simply ignoring the fact that strong winds and high tides may destroy everything you love, you're definitely going to be drinking at some point. Here's what your drink of choice this weekend/hurricane season says about you:


1. Craft Beers: You are fully confident in your house's foundation and have done little to nothing to prepare for the hurricane, but everything to prepare for the final hurrah of summer. The higher the percentage of alcohol in your beer, the higher your confidence in the success of the weekend ahead.

2. Corona/Corona Light: You definitely did some preparation for the hurricane and were/are a little bit nervous about the aftermath, but chose Coronas to hold on to every last piece of summer that you can. Overall, great choice.

3. Spiked Seltzers: You're visiting someone who has a beach house and don't really want to be that drunk in case something of concern does happen in the surrounding area, so you plan to sip on these all weekend in case of emergency.

4. Vodka & Cranberry/Pineapple/Orange: You're petrified of the hurricanes every year, but have learned to realize that there's nothing you can do but drink through it and enjoy your weekend, so cheers to you, you scaredy cat.

5. Tequila & Anything: You may not even realize that September means hurricane season and are strictly here for the LDW festivities. No wind, rain, or riptides can rain on your parade.

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.
