In the future, I plan to become a television show host of my own show. So, here are four women that have influenced/inspired me over the years.

1. Oprah Winfrey

Oprah is a phenomenal, strong, and humble woman. My first time watching the Oprah Winfrey show, she was giving away cars to everybody in her audience. I remember thinking, “dang, I wish I was there.” In high school, my English teacher assigned the class to write about a celebrity doing their dream job. I wrote about Oprah, of course, you probably guessed it.

The more I read about her story, the more interested I was. Oprah has been through so much, but yet she still pushes forward. Look at her now! I want to be similar to her: wealthy, humble, and inspiring. One of my dreams is to meet her in person.

2. Maya Angelou

The day I found out she passed away, I was devastated. You might think I’m overexaggerating, but trust me I’m not. Angelou has been an inspiration to me since middle school. The first poem I ever read by her was Why The Caged Bird Sings. I had received an audio copy from my teacher and I never gave it back.

My favorite poem by her is "phenomenal woman." That poem reminds me to love everything about myself because I’m phenomenal. The other message I get from the poem is that flaws are okay. The reason I say that is because something you may not like about your body or about yourself, somebody loves. She spoke so much truth with little rhymes.

Still I Rise is another one of my favorite poems because it motivates me to keep going. She wasn’t just a poet though. She was an author, singer, and a civil rights activist. I wanted to meet her.

3. Michelle Obama

The day Obama was elected into office was something America will never forget. Another day, students across the world will never forget when she made the vending machines healthy. At the time, I was so upset.

I was a freshman in high school ready to spend all my dollars, then that happened and changed everything. Today, I’m thankful she did it. As much as I talk about wanting to be healthy or in shape, those candy bars would have slowed ya girl down.

She also created the Let Girls Learn to help girls around the world get that education they deserve. The fact that she thinks it’s important for women to be knowledgeable is amazing to me. Knowledge is dangerous.

Her fashion style is classy, yet spicy. These two things are only a few of the things she has done. Forever my first lady!

4. Ellen Degeneres

I grew up on Ellen. I was faithfully watching Ellen every week. She blesses people in all shapes and forms which is another reason I love her show. Ellen is not afraid to have a good time, speak her mind, and dance. I love that about her.

The fact that Ellen was one of the first television show host to come out was bold, but she continues to use her voice for the LGBTQ community. She has a goofy element to her show that I plan to show in mine in the future.

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.
