YouTube has always been a safe space where I can go if I ever need to feel better. The first type of content that I found (and my favorite kind to watch) was comedy videos. I'm not talking about comedians who upload their sets to YouTube, nor the late-night hosts who have an obligation to upload segments from their shows.

I'm talking about creators who make their own content for the sake of their viewers or, in Jenna Marbles' case, for the sake of 'Me Time'. Here are five YouTubers to watch if you ever need a good laugh.

1. Jenna Marbles

Jenna Marbles is the first YouTuber I discovered on my own when she created rant videos in her bedroom. Now, she's created videos like Blending In With My Green Screen, Prank Calling In Sick From Jobs I Don't Have, Making Terrible Hot Glue Crafts, and Putting On 200 Fake Nails On One Nail. She also does absurd beauty videos in the quest to become a "Beautuber" like Giving Myself Eyelash Extensions, Come Do Terrible Things To My Hair With Me, and Giving Myself A Set of Acrylic Nails.

Her boyfriend Julian who is equally as funny frequently appears in her videos and is the target of many of her antics such as Making My Boyfriend a Romphim, Giving My Man the Hair He Deserves, and Giving My Boyfriend Acrylic Nails. She's hilarious and amazing and if you aren't already watching her, you should be! Her channel is here: https://www.youtube.com/user/JennaMarbles/videos

2. Drew Gooden

Remember the infamous 'Road Work Ahead' Vine? Well, that's Drew! Once the app shut down, Drew turned his attention to YouTube, creating videos like I Joined Team 10 So You Don't Have To, Life Hacks Are Only Getting Worse, and Why Is YouTube Music So Bad? He points out the hypocrisy on YouTube and honestly, he and Danny Gonzalez are the only reason why I know about the awful side of YouTube.

If you love sarcastic humor, you should go watch his stuff. His channel is here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCTSRIY3GLFYIpkR2Q...

3. Danny Gonzalez

Everyone thinks that Danny Gonzalez and Drew Gooden are the same person, which is understandable because if you like/watch one, you probably like/watch the other. They have the same kind of humor! Some of my favorite videos from Danny are Trying Troom Troom's Awful Pranks, Bad Instagram: Conspiracy Theories, The Horrible Truth About Musical.ly, and Jake Paul's New Song Ruined My Day.

Like Drew, I wouldn't know about all of the truly awful content that's out there without Danny. His sarcasm is enough to put a smile on my face and I think he deserves more recognition than he gets. Go watch Danny here: https://www.youtube.com/user/ActualDannyGonzalez/v...

4. Cody Ko

Cody Ko is like Drew Gooden and Danny Gonzalez on crack. He and his friend Noel have a few video series together like That's Cringe, F**k This Guy, and playing the game Love Island. Cody also is a former Viner and is quick to call out creepiness on the internet.

My favorite series by far is That's Cringe. He and Noel rip apart things they deem as cringe-worthy and their reactions are priceless. He's laugh-out-loud hilarious and I truly enjoy the time I spend watching videos on his channel. Check him out here: https://www.youtube.com/user/codyko69/videos

5. Alex Meyers

Alex Meyers is a different kind of comedy. He watches shows like Riverdale, Vampire Diaries, The Secret Life of the American Teenager, and Shadowhunters and then comments on them using the animations you see above. He also watches cheesy movies like every High School Musical, To All The Boys I've Loved Before, The Kissing Booth, and Sierra Burgess is a Loser.

Hearing his perspective and his critique of shows and movies is so damn funny that many of his videos leave me rolling on the floor laughing. And honestly, his animation is fantastic as well. Watch Alex here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCY6Ij8zOds0WJEeqC...

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.

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.
