Let's be real, college is weird. You go from having your parents do basically everything for you to being completely responsible for yourself. It's true it's not for everyone, but for those who do decide to stick with it, it's certainly an emotional roller coaster. You will experience more stress and more happiness than you ever thought possible, but I think we can all agree it's totally worth it. Regardless, here are just a few things we can all relate to as we smile through our pain...

1. "Campus tours make me feel like an exhibit at the zoo. 'To your left you can see a failing, sleep deprived student. Please do not feed, it has a meal plan.'"

2. "Study Tip: Laminate your notes so the tears just roll off."

3. "That awkward moment when you are not sure if you actually have free time, or you're just forgetting everything."

4. "I have enough money to live for the rest of my life.... If I die next Thursday."

5. "If you ever want to know what college is like, it's similar to losing your mom in the grocery store for 4 years."

6. "Should have lit this place on fire when I had the chance."

7. "Should I sleep or should I shower? I could sleep in the shower, but I'm also starving."

8. "I got 99 problems and 97 of them are due at the end of the week."

9. "The feeling you get when you google one question and find a Quizlet for the whole test is equivalent to what it feels like to win $1000 on a $1 scratch off."

10. "Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way."

11. "College is easy. It's like riding a bike. Except the bike is on fire and everything is on fire and you're actually in hell."

12. "Why are you sitting in my unassigned lecture seat?"

13. "Anyone else's Microsoft Word opening up as Netflix?"

14. "My homework isn't done, but I am."

15. "The only emotions I've felt since I started college have been 'tired' and 'no.'"

16. "Sorry, I can't go out tonight... I have an essay to write. Not that I'm going to write the essay tonight but I need to devote a certain amount of time to not doing an essay before I actually do it."

17. "When a teacher asks, 'So, any questions?' And you sit there in silence because you don't even know what you don't know."

18. "I overslept in my nap and didn't get to study. That's three years in a row. I'll try again tomorrow."

19. "Taking my math final like: Is mayonnaise the answer?"

20. "I only need a 358% on the final to get an A."

The struggle is so real.

Don't worry y'all. We're all in this together.

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.

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.
