Back Home Ballers

It’s common to lose your friends from middle school and high school after graduating. The friendships created were commonly brought together due to convenience. You lived near each other, you had the same classes, joined the same clubs. Then, you have your childhood friends. The ones that stay together till the end. This is a quite a blessing, but when it comes to story time, it can be a bit of a curse. Here's to all the moments your childhood friends will never let you forget.

1. They know where that embarrassing nickname came from and why it stuck so well.

2. They all remember your first cuss word and the childish talk that led up to it.

3. They were there for your awkward middle school phase, whether it be wearing gauchos and crimping your hair or only wearing black and calling yourself grunge/goth.


4. They know where all of your scars came from and were present for at least one of them.

5. You probably played a sport together, and they saw every trip and fall along the way.


6. They know who your first kiss was and all the ones you regret to this day.


7. They understand all of your movie references.


8. They were more excited to see your pets than they were to see you.

9. They know your true hair color.


10. They have seen you at your best and your worst.


11. They know about those high school parties you regret ever attending.


12. They remember all the dance routines you made at weekend sleepovers.


13. They gave you advice before your first date.


14. Lastly, they were and will always be there for you.

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.
