12 Moments We All Felt Like Jerry Gergich From 'Parks and Rec'
Bustle

Have you ever had moments where you just keep messing something up? Well, that's basically the life of Jerry Gergich from "Parks and Recreation.” Jerry (also known as Terry, Garrry, and Larry) is known for messing up, whether it's something little or something huge. Everyone on "Parks and Rec,” from Leslie Knope to Tom Haverford, have ridiculed him due to his screw ups in the parks department. However, Jerry is also the type of person who appreciates the little things in life, even when he gets humiliated by the Pawnee parks department. The truth is that there are moments where we are all basically Jerry(Terry/Garry/Larry) Gergich.

1. When you're doing a presentation and mess up your talking points.

It's happened to the best of us.

2. When everyone keeps forgetting your name but you just decide to ignore it rather than correcting them.

3. When you get peer pressured into something and immediately regret it.

4. When you try to act cool but it fails epically.

5. When you realize too late that you're not a morning person.

6. When you get out of work early after a rough day.


7. But then you realize that you absolutely hate your job.

We definitely feel that, Jerry.

8. When you say a word wrong and everyone makes fun at you for it.

9. When you accidentally break something very valuable.

R.I.P. DJ Roomba, you'll be dearly missed.

10. When you've had way too much too drink Friday night.

At least Snake Juice guarantees a good time (but a really bad hangover)?

11. When you have no idea how to use technology.

" God, Jerry! You don't deserve the internet!"- Tom Haverford

12. When you realized that you screwed up so bad that you become the poster child of failure (literally).

Remember when Jerry forgot to vote for Leslie? Yeah, that's unacceptable, Jerry.

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.
