10 Reasons I Already Love BGSU And You Should, Too

I promise, not all 10 reasons are the fact that we have cookie delivery.

Although I've been here for a short period of time, I have many reasons to love BGSU already. Of course, if you're reading this, you love BGSU too. Here are just 10 of the infinite reasons why Bowling Green State University is the best.

1. It's already sweater weather

When I left home to come to Bowling Green, I was wearing shorts and a T-shirt. Now that I'm here, I've been able to wear sweaters and jeans, and leggings and sweatshirts because even though it's still summer, the weather here is fall.

2. Cookie delivery

Yes, we have two different cookie delivery services. I am not going to admit how many times my roommates and I have already used them.

3. Taking classes I want

This has to be one of the best parts of college. I am so happy to finally be able to get away from useless study halls and classes that will never benefit me. Now I can pick the classes I want to be able to learn what I want.

4. The people

Everyone here has been so friendly and welcoming so far. I'm not sure if it's because all of us freshmen are in the same boat with trying to meet new people or if the high school pettiness has worn off, but there is a difference and it is appreciated.

5. Free food

I can't stress enough how much free food there is. You really can't escape it, and if you plan it out right, you shouldn't have to pay fro your own food for the first few weeks with all of the handouts happening.

6. Single room dorms

My roommates and I each have our own separate dorms with a shared bathroom and common area. This is everything I could have asked for and more. I get to see them all the time, but we also are able to shut our doors when we need to study or sleep. Its amazing.

7. Organizations

We haven't even had the campus activities festival yet and I already feel like I'm getting involved. There are so many things to choose from and I'm already obsessed with some to the organizations we have here.

8. Cutest college apparel

It's the best. Get on our level.

9. Downtown

Downtown Bowling Green is kind of adorable. There are coffee shops, restaurants, and stores of all kinds everywhere. There's always somewhere to go or something to do. I even got to pet a goat.

10. Distance

While I do love BGSU, I love home too. The three-hour drive is just right for me to get away from home, but also come back whenever I need a dose of my hectic family.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
