23 Things I Just Don't Understand

People are confusing.

There are so many things that people do and that I do not and will not ever understand.

1. People that do not like Christmas

Christmas is seriously the greatest holiday. I. Do. Not. Understand.

2. People that do not like music

I just do not understand how hating music is possible.

3. People that do not tip

I am a broke college kid and I still make it a point to tip 20% every single time I eat out. Waiters/waitresses do not make enough and make most of their money from tips. But when you tip, make sure you leave at least 15%.

4. People that litter

Why destroy the environment and the animals that live in it?

5. People that hate animals

How? Animals are the best and provide so much comfort.

6. People that like English class

I just do not understand how people like English. If I know how to speak English, then isn't that enough?

7. People that stay out late partying during the school week

I have early morning classes and like do you just skip the next day? Because I show up and I still do not understand what is happening. Or do you come hungover because that does not sound too fun, either?

8. People that can function on less than 5 hours of sleep

If I get 5 hours of sleep, I am falling asleep in my 8 AM and am out of it for the rest of the day.

9. People that drive slower than the speed limit

Why? If the speed limit is 45, why in the world are you going 35?

10. Slow walkers

If I am shopping, and you are walking super slow in front of me, chances are I am just going to cut you off and you will get pissed at me.

11. Loud talkers

There is no need to scream when we are 5 feet apart. Talk with your inside voice, please and thank you.

12. People that disrespect their elders

They are older than you first of all.

13. People that blame everything on millennials

I'm sorry Sheila that I am a broke college kid. I'm sorry that I'm not out there buying diamonds because my college is three times the price yours was when you went 100 years ago.

14. People that play their music so loud I can hear it when I'm a good 10 feet from them

How are you not deaf? Also, I do not want to listen to your music with you. I want to listen to my own music.

15. People that drive without their headlights on in the fog or rain

Am I going to get hit by you because I can't see you? Probably. Just turn them on. It's not that hard. I promise.

16. People that do not use their turn signal

Again, it isn't that hard. You push it down for left and up for right. Chances are, I will actually slow down and let you over if you signal instead of just cutting me off.

17. People that try to pass you in the lane that ends in less than 100 feet

Just merge behind me. There are already other cars in front of me so you can't even go fast. There is no point in riding the lane out.

18. People that wear heels to school

You do you, honey. But I know, I like to be as comfortable as possible and heels are not comfortable at all. But again, you do you.

19. People that make fun of others at the gym for their weight

They are at the gym working on themselves just like you are. They could be sitting at home not working out.

20. People that do not like Panera

How? It is healthy and they have a lot of options.

21. Uptight people

I am more of a go with the flow type of person and I just do not understand how you could be anything but.

22. People that do not like Mexican food

Tacos are so good. So are chips and queso.

23. People that drink milk

Ew. It just doesn't taste good unless it is in coffee.

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.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.

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.
