Usually, most people are dreading going back to school, whereas I love going back. I was especially excited for this semester because I'm finally taking all the classes I want.

For those of you who don't know, I'm a Mass Communications major with a minor in Creative Writing. This semester, I'm allowed to take the classes that pertain specifically to what I want. Along with that, I'm taking a ballet class!

I'm not usually one to talk about myself, but my excitement is literally spilling out of me, so I feel as if I need to share with everyone.

Another thing I'm excited for is the International Collegiate Championship of A Cappella. My group was chosen to compete this year, and I CANNOT WAIT. I get to watch a bunch of great groups performs AND perform for my friends and family.

Oh, and because I'm doing ballet, I told myself that this is the perfect opportunity to get back in shape. I'm hoping to go to the gym three times a week. The weekends, I'll let myself have off because uh, it's the weekend, and I don't want to do anything.

Plus, last semester, I bought a ticket to go see Demi Lovato with my friends, and honestly, I've only ever been this excited for something twice before. And that was to see Shawn Mendes in concert both times, soooo....

The point is, I'm hoping that this semester is really great. I think it will be, at least. And the best part is I get to share all these experiences with my boyfriend, my family, and my friends. What more could I ask for?

I'm excited to take classes that are going to teach me more about what I want to do. I'm excited to be taking a class where I will learn how to become a better fiction writer. I'm excited for everything.

I'm sure there will be a few bumps in the road, but that's life. You can't expect anything less.

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.
