Why Summer Is The Best Time of Year
Huffington Post

Usually, people have their own favorite season or favorite times of the year because that time has features that interest or help them get away from their normal, busy lives. A lot of people often say they either favor warmer or colder weather or somewhere in between as opposed to choosing either extreme. Some of these factors make people favor one season or month over the others. In this case, my own personal favorite season is summer because of the warm weather and the longs break from school. Some popular months that are favorites among many are October or December because of their respective holidays.

With my own experience and comparison of the many months during the year, I have come up with some reasons why the summer months are one of the best times out of the year. The summer months usually run from two major holidays; Memorial Day to Labor Day, or late May to early September. It is usually filled with many more outdoor activities and therefore people become more active because of the warmer weather. Some of my own favorites for the summer include bike riding and skateboarding, which are mainly done in the summer because of the ability to do so with more free time and longer hours during the day.

Another reason why I think the summer months are the best time to enjoy activities is because it provides an opportunity to relax from anything that could be taxing, such as a job or school. The amount of time that is needed during the regular year is usually more demanding and doesn’t leave many people with a proper amount of time to get other recreational things done. Time constraints during the summer months still exist, but with proper planning, time can be accommodated to someone’s needs. This is one of the main factors unto which I believe summer to be more free and allowing compared to other months of the year.

The last factor that goes into why I think that the summer months are the best months are because there is a lot more time to spend outside with warmer weather. I enjoy the outdoors because experiencing nature and having the chance to go swimming or hiking is very appealing to me. Other months have different weather which may prevent some of these activities, especially in the northern parts of the United States. Weather is one of the bigger factors that go into considering some of the reasons why summer is the best time of year, but these are my reasons for considering it as my favorite season.

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.
