Every ambitious child's goal and senior's frenemy: the "Advanced Placement" course. Thousands of students sign up for AP classes every year with the same belief that it couldn't possibly be harder than the classes they are already in. I was one of those students, a student who neglected to let the meaning of the word "advanced" have any impact whatsoever on her decision making process when choosing her classes. AP Literature and Composition and AP U.S. History were definitely harder than I anticipated (much harder than I anticipated), but I can't say I regret taking them. For next year's batch of APers (or for last year's recovering survivors), here's 20 times Drake and Josh accurately described the class (tortue) you're willingly signing up for.

1. When you tell your parents you're signing up for an AP class

2. But your friends are ... skeptical

3. Everything is fine until you get your syllabi in the beginning of the year...

4. ... but you buckle down and start studying anyway

5. How you inevitably feel about College Board and AP in general

6. You feel so smart writing your fancy thesis statements

7. Until you get the corrections back and realize what level you're really on

8. Who cares if College Board doesn't like how you construct an essay?

9. Before you know it, test day is around the corner

10. And this is you

11. And your accumulated knowledge to this point

12. You're anxious and snapping at everyone

13. Until you realize one very important point and just go in to get it over with

14. Filling in those little bubbles is torture

15. But you're pretty sure your essay had some ground-breaking insights

16. When you hear classmates talking about the short answers you answered VERY differently

17. You're going crazy waiting for July to come

18. When the day finally arrives, you're prepared for the worst...

19. ...until you see your scores and you realize it was all worth it

20. ...or not so much...

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
