If you’re a college student, you are probably questioning life right now. It’s finals week, you have slept seven hours in the past three days, your bank account says you are eating off the dollar menu tonight, it's cold, and you have a million things to do before you can go home for winter break. The good news is you’re not alone and thousands of other kids are suffering with you! Keep moving forward and you'll be home with your dog eating a home-cooked meal before you know it. Here are a few thoughts that are probably going through your head right about now…

1. “Who really needs a college education anyway?”

2. “I need to get a 120% on the final to get an ‘A’ in the class”

3. “I need more coffee”

4. “When is the last time I’ve slept?”

5. “Cumulative final exam?! That professor definitely isn’t getting a good rating”

6. “Ok, time to learn 25 chapters in one night!”

7. “What day is it again?”

8. “Ugh, when is Christmas?”

9. “Best years of your life!” Yeah right, it sure doesn’t seem like that right now.

10. “This week the library is my home, bed, and dining room table all in one”

And after exams are over you realize how much you were able to accomplish in five days and wonder what the semester would have been like if you could have been that productive the whole time!

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.
