You don't have to be a woman. You don't have to be a feminist. You don't even have to be from Denver. You don't have to be anything but yourself. The Women's March On Denver is happening on Saturday, January 21st in downtown Denver, and you shouldn't miss it.

The Women's March On was created in Washington, and has spread vastly throughout the states. And now, it's in CO!

The Women's March on CO's mission statement reads, "This march is not a protest, but rather an opportunity for all participants to support social justice, human rights and equality, and to demonstrate that we all be vigilant in protecting these rights moving forward."

It's a safe space and safe time to let your voice be heard, without even saying a word. Just by going to the march, you can express that you believe in solidarity for all human rights. It's a perfect opportunity to be apart of something huge, and maybe even revolutionary.

Find a group of friends, and if you're from Grand Junction, make a weekend out of it and participate. You don't even have to march, but to just stand in solidarity with other women is and empowering statement in it of itself. Don't let your location, finances, political views, or anything, hold you back from this amazing occasion.

More details about the march can be found here.

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.
