An inside look into this years The Bachelor

New year, New Bachelor
Pop Crush

America loves Nick, and I'm not talking about myself this time.

"The Bachelor" is by far one of the most controversial television series out, specifically because of the candidate this season. Whether you're discussing the fact that a man is dating multiple women at one time, women that all live in the same house on national television, or maybe you're talking about how Nick shouldn't be given another chance after his missed connections already. It doesn't matter if you're #teamNick or not, because I think everyone can love this season of The Bachelor.

Last week we saw 8 girls go home as the number went from 30, brand new and ready to impress, women to 22 excited and anxious young gals. This year is already started on a good foot. Lets talk about it.

First, 12, yes 12, of the women wore a red dress and on top of that nobody knows why. Some people say that red could be Nicks favorite color but if you ask me, I think there was a secret alliance made before the big season premiere.

Secondly, the more things change the more they stay the same. Doctors and dentists continue to overcrowd the selection of "wife-to-be's". Let's talk about the girls that made a less-than-rose worthy first impression. First there was the lovely Briana who was a surgical unit nurse that pulled out a latex glove and said 'bend over." Maybe a Colonoscopy isn't the best way to make a first impression.Then there was Ida Marie who made Nick participate in a trust fall. Their trust was quickly broken when she didn't receive a rose. Oh and Angela, who was one of the 'red dress gang'.

Thirdly, lets talk about Elizabeth, Nick's one night stand. Really I don't know what more I could say. Nine months before the show, Nick hooked up with one of the future contestants at a wedding. Of course at the time none of this was ever thought of so no harm, no foul. Liz received the last rose after her competing speech of "oh Nick I know that I didn't want you then but I really want you know and it not because i'll be on television I swear" (not the actual quote but probably her actual thoughts). All the while America sits at home trying to figure out the math behind that...

Lastly, and I did save the best for last, Shark Dolphin girl! Yeah I'm just as confused as you. Now,don't get me wrong, I love a good bold move by a lady just as much as the next guy. It'sjust, a dolphin, or shark, or whatever the heck it is (its a shark because it has gills) thats a very risky move. It doesn't matter how you feel though because she made a good enough impression to get a rose. In her own words, "I'm just glad I didn't wear a red dress"

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.
