1. You see all that has to be done and you keep telling yourself that it is totally manageable.

Yes there is a lot of work, but if you really focus and work hard you can get it all done.


2. Soon you realize that you may have underestimated the amount of work you have.

It will all get done... maybe...


3. You've been working for a bit and decide that you need a short break.

Okay so maybe your break lasted a little longer than planned.

4. Out of nowhere you suddenly become super focused and motivated.

WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK WORK


5. Waking up for your morning classes seems impossible.

Late nights must be followed by lots and lots of coffee!


6. Sleep soon becomes an afterthought and is definitely your last priority.

Who cares about sleep when there is work to be done?


7. The lack of sleep and massive amounts of work are starting to catch up with you.

You can barely remember a day when you weren't exhausted or overwhelmed.


8. Your roommates understand that you are emotionally unstable.

This is what it would be like if a human could break.


9. Distractions and procrastination start to take over after a while.

Its cool if I rewrite the same ideas three different ways, right?


10. There comes a point when your brain is full and tired.

You can't read over another set of notes or finish another page of your paper without taking a three day long study break.


11. However, you slowly start to check things off your list.

YOU CAN DO IT!


12. Finally, it feels so free to be finished.

After you take a long nap it's time to party it up with all your friends!

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.
