2. Needing to get off of the couch and grab the remote to let Netflix know that you are indeed still watching.

3. Seeing your weird lab partner on Tinder.

4. When the Snapchat filter doesn't go onto you and your BFF and only you are a puppy.

5. Thinking you got catfished but really your date just used seven different Instagram filters at once.

6. Not being able to find the proper meme to toss into your #fire group chat.

7. Thinking you were going out on a nice date but really the guy just meant "Netflix & Chill."

8. Complaining about how Disney Channel and Nickelodeon are totally awful now.

9. When you and your friends try to go to brunch, but your favorite place has a three hour wait.

10. Forgetting the last time your hair got a real washing.... you know, besides dry shampoo.

11. Getting into arguments because apparently not all feelings can be expressed in text lingo and emojis.

12. Spending 45 minutes going through your entire Pinterest quote board to find the perfect Instagram photo caption.

15. Forgetting your cell phone at home and realizing that you don't know how to do life without it.

16. When your Apple Watch dies and you don't know the time because you can't read the hands on a clock.

17. Running out of memory on your phone and needing to delete some of your priceless selfies.

18. Losing a 487-day Snapchat streak because your "friend" decided to try out her not-so-life-proof-case.

19. When your Ãœber is five minutes late because of "traffic."

20. When you don't want to pay for premium Spotify and need to listen to a whole two minutes of ads.

21. Being screwed economically by student debt while trying to balance good grades and a job with stagnant wages, not to mention the horrible decline of social safety nets for young adults.

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.
