2. Bike ride

Take a relaxing bike ride through your favorite parts of town, or even bike to some new places. Maybe hit up some local bike trails for an even prettier view!

3. Visit an Orchard

Nothing says summer than some fresh fruit. Call up your local orchard and see if they have a "Pick your own fruit" option. Its so fun, plus you get some delicious locally sourced fruit!

4. Visit an Amusement Park

For those thrill seekers, a day trip to an amusement park is perfect. Screaming for your life with your S.O is a perfect way to bond on a hot summer day!

5. Outdoor Concert

Check your local community page to see if there are any local outdoor concerts coming up! You can always check Ticketmaster, or even your local radio show. Outdoor concerts are always a fun experience, and a great way to bond over music with your S.O.

6. Picnic

This may be cheesy or a bit classic, but you should do it at least once! Grab a cooler, a blanket, and some great homemade food and head to the park or the beach! Enjoy the great scenery and the company of your partner!

7. Watch the Sunset or the Sunrise

Depending on if you're a morning person, or a night owl, watching the sunset and rise is beautiful. Take the time to find a great spot with a clear view, grab some blankets and relax.

8. Beach trip!

For those of you who have access to a beach, take advantage of it! Spend the day in the sun and sand with your partner. Have a sandcastle competition, search for seashells, and even take some fun summer pics!

9. Minor League Game

Spend the day in the stands rooting on your local Minor league players!

10. Hike

Hiking is a great way to get some exercise in, as well as enjoy the scenery of the world around you. Find some trails or state parks and hit the ground running! Hiking is a great way to get your endorphins going, why not do it with your S.O?

11. Ice Cream Crawl

This is something I've been dying to do! Plan out a course to all of your local ice cream shops/parlors and share a scoop from each place! Try a new flavor each time and see which you like the best!

Camp at a campsite or in your backyard, either way, its super fun! Have an overnight experience or try for the weekend. Pitch your tent and get the bonfire going for some yummy s'mores.

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.
