20 Signs That Prove You Went to Pittston Area High School

If you went, or go, to Pittston Area, here are just a few things that will definitely relate to your high school experience there:

1. You had a teacher that played a conch shell or violin in the middle of class.

Probably one of my fondest memories of PA, thank you Mr. Russick.

2. Hearing the phrase "just a friendly reminder" and losing it.

When that statement came over the speaker, I'm pretty sure almost everyone laughed.

3. Your marching band was incredible, but your football team, not so much.

Extreme props to the marching band, you guys always rocked. And hey, no matter if we barely won any football games, everyone always went out to support them anyway; and we had a killer pep squad.

4. You will never forget that there are about 75 TRILLION cells in the adult human body.

Thank you Mr. Richards.

5. "Serotonin"

Enough said.

6. Your Relay for Life was incredible.

Literally. Every year the students and employees did an amazing job of raising insane amounts of money for cancer research.

7. You got to college and didn't know how to write a paper in MLA/APA/Chicago Style.

I didn't even know there were different types of writing formats..

8. The senior lot vaping crisis of 2K15.

"I don't know what you kids are smoking these days e-cigs or whatever.."

9. Your day was made by Dave Galli.

Thanks for being awesome Dave!

10. The way your principal said "no" made you crack up.

I'm pretty sure everyone had a perfect imitation of Mr.Haas's famous "NO" voice.

11. The pep rallies were actually really fun.

The teacher imitations were always spot on, and probably what I looked forward to all year.

12. Singing the "Alma Mater" at any school event was IMPOSSIBLE.

No matter how many times we rehearse it, let's be honest, it will never sound anything short of nails on a chalkboard.

13. Through the toughest times, the student body came together

We really did experience some of the hardest moments in high school, the loss of classmates broke every single one of us. But we banded together, and were all strong for each other.

14. The dress code made you want to explode.

No collarbones!! They are distracting!!!

15. When it poured there would be enough water to fill a lake leading to your car after classes.

I probably ruined 4 pairs of shoes this way..

16. The horrid smell of freshman hallways made you sick.

A mixture of Axe body spray and BO.

17. You always found a way to get out of that horrible study.

You refused to be stuck in a study with no one you knew, and literally did anything to be with some friends instead.

18. A political science teacher hunted you down and made sure you registered to vote the millisecond you turned 18.

Mr. Fuller, believe me, we will all be voting.

19. You never want to see another popsicle stick in your life after Spanish class.

I can still hear the dreaded sound of the cup of popsicle sticks being shaken and her preparing to choose one unfortunate soul to answer a question in Spanish.

20. You had the sweetest physics teacher.

Literally, I never had a nicer teacher than Mr.Joyce. Plus his potato gun was cool.

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.
