I Never Wanted AirPods, But I Got Them For Christmas, And Now I Can See Why People Are OBSESSED

I converted to the "I don't speak broke" side of headphones, and IT FEELS SO GOOD.

I Never Wanted AirPods, But I Got Them For Christmas, And Now I Can See Why People Are OBSESSED

I really never thought I'd be the person who tucks their hair behind their ears to reveal a small, white wireless headphone teeming with stigma.

I never thought that would be me, but now it is.

I have been converted to the "I don't speak broke" side, and let me just say... wow.

It was about time I invested in new headphones, my old standard-issue wire Apple headphones started shocking me when I put them in a few months back.

I work around a lot of water... not saying that that was the root cause of the problem, but the wires were more of a danger than anything.

I had been eyeing AirPods for a while, but I didn't really want to seem like the stereotypical unapproachable white girl on campus.

I mentioned wanting AirPods to my mom and sure enough, she delivered in the classical "box in a box in a box" style of present wrapping.

As soon as you open the box, the AirPods recognize your phone and they start syncing up... super cool and SUPER creepy. Technology is really going to kill us all.

Anyway, they connect and they even recognize your ears. Like, they don't play music until you put them in your ears. It's insane.

I named mine MeganPods because I'm really funny (at least I think I am).

Some of the things that have been really nice about having AirPods - I don't need to hold my phone to move from place to place while listening to music.

I can put a jacket on without taking my headphones off. Want to skip a song? *tap tap*. Boom. It's so cool!

Also, have you ever listened to 8D audio? If you have AirPods... seriously it is wild I recommend.

I promise not to become one of those annoying AirPods people, but I certainly do understand how those people got to where they are. Human nature is crazy, and technology is even crazier.

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.
