19 Workouts You Can Do During The 92nd Academy Awards, Since You WON'T Be Accepting An Oscar
"Once Upon a Time In Hollywood" / Columbia Pictures

Awards season is wrapping up the only way Hollywood knows how — with the 92nd Academy Awards. The Oscars are the peak of success in the movie industry and this year's competition is as fierce as ever. Leo DeCaprio, Laura Dern, Tom Hanks, Margot Robbie, Brad Pitt, Scarlett Johansson, Al Pacino, and everyone who is anyone will be there while the rest of us watch the spectacle from our couches, judging outfits and acceptance speeches alike.

While pouring a glass (or two) of wine and popping the popcorn is a fully acceptable way to enjoy Oscars night, they take their dear sweet time to present those golden trophies. This show is a long one! Stretching your legs is necessary for your overall viewing experience. While you're at it, add in some squats, a couple of jumping jacks, and hey, a plank sounds like a great idea! You may not be accepting a prestigious award, but you can still feel like a superstar by the time they announce Best Picture.

1. They mention there's no host: 10 crunches

2. The camera pans to the fabulous Meryl Streep: 10 push-ups 

3. Someone thanks their parents: 5 jumping jacks 

4. Someone makes a joke about the POTUS: 5 squats 

5. Brad and Leo look particularly bro-y: 10 mountain climbers 

6. When all the nominees in the category are men: 25 calf raises

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.
