Freshman year is weird. You are thrown into so many socially-awkward situations at once, sometimes its hard to keep track. That being said, one of the most bizarre freshman constructs is the roommate. Nowadays, you contact them on social media before meeting them in person, so you want to make sure they like you.

Here are some of the pick-up-line-esque things you said to ensure you came off as ~chill~.

1. I'm an early bird and a night owl!

Yes, yes, basically you are the perfect sleeper.

2. I'm super neat!

One time, I woke up snuggling a dirty shirt I had hidden under the covers from my roommate...

3. I'm down to go out or stay in for a chill movie night!

You are so ~flexible~

4. I'm literally obsessed with my dog

This one is really going to differentiate you from every other suburban middle-class female.

5. I don't really know that much about Greek life, but I think I'm gonna rush!

You say while wearing a Theta sweatshirt, holding your mom's "I <3 my sorority sisters" mug from '98, and skimming Greekranks on your laptop.

6. I love going to concerts and music festivals!

Concerts = chill.

7. I can't wait to try all the restaurants in _______!

Little did you know you would have to check your bank account every time you debated ordering Jimmy Johns. And then chose to starve instead.

8. Lol, literally all I do is eat

Well, yes, this is part of basic human survival.

9. I wanna get up early and go to the gym!

HA.

10. I love hanging out with friends on the weekend!

REALLY?! Omfg, girl, same. We have so much in common.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

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.
