10 Emotions We All Face The Week Of Thanksgiving
I Hate Green Beans

As the day approaches, us college students couldn't be counting down the days sooner. Not only is it a break from our busy schedules but a time to go home and get real food for the weekend.

1. Wanting classes to be cancelled the day before

We all pray and pray and pray and yet, our professors seem to find entertainment in the fact that the class groans when they announce attendance will be counted for the day before thanksgiving. Really?

2. The feeling of seeing your family and friends


When was the last time you went home? The last time you slept in your own bed? Oh the joy!

3. Having a real meal for the first time In months


It's been months since you've had decent food and you're ready to chow down so you're a little hangry.

4. When people ask how school Is going


Please don't ask... This semester actually sucked.

5. Being able to relax for more than 2 days


You mean no worries for more than 2 days? I mean it's at least 3-4 days but as a college student - you take what you can get.

6. And then waiting in lines for Black Friday just as the night ends


Because what's better than eating amazing food? Standing in line at 11 at night waiting for all of the discounted goodies.

7. "Are you still single?"


This is just awkward....

8. When you've just been home a little too long


You're starting to argue with your siblings again... Now it's time to probably pack your bags.

9. But when the break ends, saying goodbye is hard


But saying goodbye is the hardest part.

10. Then the fact that you're back on campus and want to go home again


Is it too late to turn around???


But at the end of the day when you're drowning in homework once again and pulling your hair out from the stress of finals next month, your mom is the first person you'll call.

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?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
