10 Reasons Why Your College Friends Are The Best Friends
Kelsey Simeone

The fall semster of freshman year is a huge adjustment. You don't have any friends (yet), you don't know where everything is, and you're away from home. It's hard to imagine meeting someone you can go to the dining hall with, forget finding a best friend. But soon enough, you become close with a few people in your classes. The next thing you know, you hang out every day, and are always together. These people are the ones you can count on for everything and anything, at any time of day, making them your best friends. As if that isn't reason enough, here's ten reasons why your college friends are the best friends:

1. They make nights in and out fun.

Whether it's actually going out, or staying in and ordering take out, you always have fun when you're together.

2. They know your schedule and already planned when you can eat lunch together.

Monday, Wednesday, Friday, you're meeting up at 1:15... duh.

3. The group chat.

Even if it means they yell at you for falling asleep before midnight on your birthday, or when you don't check your phone and there's twenty texts, the group chat makes your day.

4. They make reuniting that much sweeter.

5. They're there at any time, day or night.

2 a.m. or 8 a.m. they're always there, and better yet, they're right down the hall.

6. Their closet is your closet.

Suddenly you hate everything that's in your closet and can't find anything to wear, but then you remember you have a second closet.

7. They make distance feel like nothing.

Living down the hall or living in two different states means nothing, you'll still see each other and stay in touch no matter where you are.

8. They know all of your weird habits.

They know that during exam week you follow a strict schedule that includes when you're showering and for how long, no questions asked.

9. There's no boundaries.

You burp in front of each other, you ask them the dumbest things, and you walk into their room like you live there.

10. They make college feel like home.

College is a huge adjustment freshman year, but with the right group of friends, they make school your new home, and you can't wait to go back.

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.

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.

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.
