Why You Should Read 'Monsterkind'
enenkaydoodles/Taylor C. on Tumblr

Unsurprisingly, I've found myself recommending another webcomic. I can't help that a lot of the highest quality content comes from independent authors on the internet. This time, I'm here to recommend the webcomic "Monsterkind" by Taylor C (especially now that a Kickstarter has been launched for physical copies of volume two !).

I found this webcomic by chance, most likely when looking for more content to read while a few of my other favorite comics were on hiatus. "Monsterkind" follows the main character, social worker Wallace Foster, as he tries to help the people of District C with their problems. While it doesn't sound very interesting like that, it's important to note that the world the story is set in is extraordinary. "Monsterkind" takes place in a modern universe where both humans and monsters live.

What caught my attention in the first place was how colorful and unique the character designs in "Monsterkind" were. The art style used is simplistic but lends itself to showing off the character's details. The character's themselves are fun and loveable, but I think the colors and design add to it. Even the side characters with less time in the spotlight have fantastic designs!

While "Monsterkind" is mostly a light-hearted and funny story following Wallace Foster making friends and adjusting to his new life, there are undertones of dark pasts and mystery. I can tell that this ongoing webcomic is going somewhere with the plot, and I'm really excited to figure it out!

"Monsterkind" updates on Thursdays and Fridays and has merchandise available on storenvy. While i'm eager to see more of the story, the updates are well worth the wait!

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.
