10 Struggles Only Girls With The Name Meghan Understand

When you're name is Meghan, you know all of the struggles, that come along with that:

1. When you meet someone with your name, the first question is always, "How to you spell it?"

This is a recording. With an "h", which is the right way OBVIOUSLY.

2. You gotten some interesting nicknames over the years: Meg, Meggy, Meg-han, or in my case, Malpin.

That's what you get when you have a blendable first and last name.

3. You are confused by any spelling other than yours, but Meagan, Meghann, Meghyn really puzzle you. Why all the extra letters?

WHY.

4. Usually, you are asked, "Is that with an h?"

Shout out to the people at Starbucks that recognize me and don't ask anymore.

5. You have an immediate bond with with other Meghans. The bond with Megans just isn't the same.

Love you all.

6. Whenever they say Meghan Trainor's name on the radio, you perk up. EVERY. TIME.

"My name is No". Actually my name is Meghan but thanks.

7. People somehow find a way to mispronounce your name. Most common would be making the "e" sound more like an "a".

Ugh please don't.

8. Finding things in the souvenir shop as a kid was always hit or miss. But they always had "Megan".

All you wanted was something with your name spelled correctly. Is it that much to ask.

9. Recently discovered struggle: Google wants to correct your name to "Megan".

NO I DID NOT MEAN "MEGAN".

10. But hey, it's all worth it because you can say that your name in Irish means "pearl".

Worth it? We'll go with yes.

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.
