5 Women That I Admire Most
EvaGenEva

As International Women's Day passed, I began to think of all of the women I admire. They all come in different shapes and sizes; they have all been hurt or rejected. They aren't perfect, but they don't need to be. Having these amazing role models allows me to see past my downfalls and believe, one day, I, too, will be successful. Here are five powerful women I admire every day.

1. Oprah Winfrey


This lady has been through it all. Needless to say, she is filthy rich, a net worth of more than $3 billion. She has managed to soar into the broadcasting world, despite her troubling past. She has done it all without the help of a man and had every reason to give up on her dreams. She kept pushing, and that's what makes her unique.

2. Katie Couric

As a fellow journalist, I respect Katie's drive within her industry. She managed to move up quickly in an ever-changing world. With her expertise as a journalist, she can be successful in any field she chooses.

3. Beyonce

The beautiful and brave Queen B will always make it to the top of my list. Describing herself as a modern day feminist, she has produced a multitude of songs telling women to stand up for themselves. Being able to be strong and independent isn't looked at as a problem but a solution. With her talent and confidence, you would never think she had any hardship. She was able to overcome everything with the world against her. And she's fierce!

4. Adele

Considering this chick had to stop singing for her health and came back stronger than ever, deserves a round of applause. She admits her mistakes like giving up her career for a stupid boy. She has incredible drive and spirit to never give up her dream. She set records that almost beat The Beatles. This girl is amazing, and I hope she never gives up on her goals.

5. Taylor Swift

I will openly admit I am not Taylor Swift's biggest fan. I think she is a talented artist, but this goes deeper than music. T-Swift has this attitude about love and life that I admire. When someone does her wrong, she makes them feel bad and quite embarrassed, actually. She has this independent, FU attitude that I desire to emulate. Deep down, I know she cares what the world thinks of her – she often sings about it. But, I admire her ability to overcome obstacles that would prevent many other people from persuing their passions.

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.
