If you are a soon-to-be freshman at Hofstra University, then get excited because Hofstra is an amazing school and you are going to have a great year. If you are a returning Hofstra student, then get excited because you know that you are in for another crazy year. Here's just a handful of all of the amazing moments that every Hofstra student experiences.

1. When you're at Hof USA with your friends and your buzzer goes off first.


This is a rare and beautiful occurrence. Mozzarella sticks here I come.

2. Getting the text that classes are cancelled when it snows.


Snow, thank you for letting us avoid responsibilities without any punishment. Bless you for letting us sleep in. Snow, you are loved.

3. Getting an email from your professor that class is cancelled.

Wait... you aren't forcing me to sit in your lecture for an hour and a half?!

4. When Freshens has no line.


No line = day made (plus a meal that won't make you gain the freshmen 15.... or sophomore, junior, or senior 15)

5. Spotting a Hofstra cat.

Hofstra is known for its adorable cats that roam the campus. The temptation to pet them is always real. The temptation to steal them and bring them to your dorm can also be real if you're a cat person.

6. Actually getting money back when returning your textbooks.


Alright let's be honest, the majority of us are using Amazon, Chegg, or we are taking the risk of not even buying or renting the textbooks we need. However, on those rare occasions that we do use the Hofstra bookstore, actually getting a decent amount of money back at the end of the semester is a blessing.

7. Finally walking into a house or bar after walking in the freezing cold.

Hey will you look at that, I can feel my fingers again!

8. Running into friends on the unispan.


Walking to class just got a little bit better.

9. When your professor tells you there's no absence policy.


Well, you won't be seeing much of me anymore. I will still show up for tests, I promise.

10. Getting Sbarros or Hof USA after a night out with friends.


Bless them for being open late. They are always greatly appreciated.

11. That glorious moment when you get into all of the classes you wanted without any issues.


Lit schedule. Lit life. But seriously, signing up for classes and making your schedule is beyond stressful. So when everything works out smoothly, it is truly glorious.

Your college years can be stressful at times but at the end of the day they really are the best four years of your life. So study hard, party hard, and go pride!!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.
