You're researching a paper online, watching your favorite Netflix show, or browsing social media when...

BAM

The WiFi is out. It is out without a doubt.

1. You think it's just your computer, and you keep trying to connect, but to no avail.

2. You try shutting down and restarting your computer because it works a good 40% of the time to solve whatever problem you're facing

3. Your computer restarts, but you still have no wifi...and you are getting frustrated...very frustrated

4. You check in your building's group chat to see if other people are having this very problem. They are.

5. If you have your own place, this is the point where you unplug and replug the router, and usually everything is fine...but if that's not the case because A) the router trick didn't work or B) you live in a dorm with hundreds of other people and have no possible idea of how to reset the wifi...

YOU GET DESPERATE! you try to connect to any wifi network in range. You even try.......random passwords....

6. Nothing is working. All hope is lost. You are doomed for an indefinite amount of time. Maybe you even cry. If you're lucky you have Spotify Premium and can listen to music.

7. You play the Google Chrome "no internet" dinosaur in a desert game for a VERY VERY long time

longer than you'd care to admit. Long enough to where you have reached the point where you are actually trying to beat your high score.

8. Then, the gods above pay you some respect...the wifi comes back on without warning but with much welcome

9. You rejoice for about a good two minutes

10. And then you go right back to whatever it was you were doing and put this all behind you.

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.

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.
