25 Things You'll Hear Around Campus Before a Winter Storm

The dreaded winter storm warnings have been in effect this week and everybody has been anxiously talking about it. It's almost as if people forget that we live in the Midwest, because the first few snow/ice storms of the year always seem to be the end of the world. If you're a college student and one of these storms is headed your way or you're in the middle of one right now, you're guaranteed to hear these 25 things from your fellow students.

1. Do you think we'll actually get that much snow? Two feet of snow just sounds too excessive to be true.

2. Have you checked the weather radar recently?

3. What do you think the roads will be like?

4. Will you go to the grocery store with me to pick up food before the storm comes?

5. My professor better cancel class or I'm going to freak out.

6. I hope that I find out class is cancelled soon so I don't have to do this assignment.

7. There's no way I'm walking to class in this weather.

8. Would it be bad if I called campus security to have them pick me up for class? I mean, this is kind of an emergency.

9. Do you think they'll shut down the whole campus?

10. They've only shut down campus twice in the past twenty years, but do you think this will be an exception?

11. My professor is amazing and already cancelled class because he lives so far away.

12. Why is this one professor so committed to having class today? She literally said she'd walk here if she had to. Is she mental?

13. Is it bad if I call work and tell them I can't come in? They should understand right?

14. I might just be lazy and watch Netflix all day.

15. Yeah, I'm staying in bed all day and nobody can stop me.

16. I don't want to move my car off of the street. The street parking is too good to give up.

17. If my car can't make it up the hill I'm going to scream.

18. If my car gets stuck will you help me get it out?

19. Is it lame that I want to go sledding and build a snowman?

20. If I actually went sledding would you go with me? You know it would be fun.

21. I don't want to walk all the way to the cafeteria for food.

22. I know I'm a horrible person for ordering take-out in the middle of the storm, but I'm really craving Chinese. I'll say a prayer for the delivery person.

23. I hate winter so much.

24. When is spring coming back? Oh, it's over two months away? Fantastic.

25. I swear after college I am moving down south where it's WARM and I never have to deal with storms like this ever again.

Good luck out there everybody! You're going to need all of the motivation and good fortune you can get.

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.
