No, Your Attitude Has Never Been Cute

Somehow, having a terrible attitude and being a spoiled brat became brag-worthy.

I can't pinpoint when, but sometime between 2010 and 2018, being a brat became cool. It started out slow and barely noticeable.

I caught my first glimpse of it at prom; a girl's date wasn't giving her enough attention, so she sat down and pouted, ruining the dance he spent over $150 of tickets on to be there. From that point on, it only seemed to get worse.

We've all seen those posts on social media where girls brag about their attitudes. Those posts almost always go something like this, "lol whoever ends up with me is going to have to deal with my bi-polar a**."

Somehow, having a terrible attitude and being a spoiled brat has become brag-worthy. One day, for no particular reason, someone decided that they were proud of their shitty attitude and decided to let the entire world know, thus letting others know it was okay to act this way.

I think this trend is beyond stupid.

No, having a terrible attitude is not cute. In fact, it makes you an unbearable person. It's immature, especially when the bulk of women posting about it are in their early twenties. Grow up, and learn how to act like an adult who knows how to control her emotions and behavior.

When people see these posts, they're going to automatically make assumptions about your personality. Do you know what that does? It attracts the wrong kind of people. You're either going to end up with someone who acts just as much like a baby as you do or someone who will turn this act into something abusive. This goes for both friends and romantic partners.

I believe that you attract what you put out into the world, and if people are acting like this, I can see how finding friends is such a struggle.

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.
