If you haven't heard of her yet, Moxie Raia is an upcoming singer and songwriter from New Jersey. Also known as Laura Raia, and she is of Italian descent. Moxie began her career as a professional dancer and songwriter when she was a teen. At the age of 13, she moved to NYC and enrolled in the Professional Children's School. She later studied jazz at Columbia University, until she got an opportunity to work with Capitol Records to team up for a cover of "Beware" by Big Sean, which prompted her to move to LA.

Fast forward to the recent past, or March, when she released her debut mix tape "931" that you can download for free from her website, (yomoxie.com) that offers exhilarating collaborations with Pusha T, Post Malone, and Wyclef Jean. She shows off her fierce talent by embracing old school R&B vibes, as well showcasing brilliant vocals.

Soon after her release of her mixtape, she got the amazing opportunity to tour and open for one of the biggest names in music, Justin Bieber, for the first leg of his highly anticipated Purpose Tour. This not only exposed her to a broader audience but the amazing experience of touring all around the country.

Not only is she talented, but she has a huge heart made of gold. Raia is known for her signature of spreading love by telling the audience to smile for her snapchat as they cheer "(Insert City Here) LOVES!" She was also known for meeting up with fans during the shows, as well as tweeting them and showing all sorts of love on social media. Her fans love her so much too. Just look at all this love:

"Hey moxie it's Alexis I just wanted to stop by and say I love you and how much I appreciate all that you do. You're a gem, keep doing you." - Alexis aka @bottledups via twitter

"Moxie is such an incredible woman not only for her authentic music but also for her honesty and pure personality. It's hard to find people out there that are just as beautiful on the inside than they are on the outside but that's exactly what she is. She has the biggest heart and uses her platform for so much good. The love she also has for her fans is so special. There's no doubt that if you love her she will love you right back. I've been supporting Moxie for a good four months now and I have felt nothing but love since the day I met her. Moxie is truly an inspiration and I am so thankful to be able to look up to someone as genuine and wonderful as she is." -Allie aka @lovesickallie via twitter

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.

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.
