Growing up in Seaford has been an exciting but hard journey. There have been so many people that I have met, things I've seen, and memories that I would never take back. I wrote this article to bring back some memories and crack a smile for the people who like me, grew up in Seaford. So here are 25 ways you know you grew up in Seaford, NY:

1. You never understood how people knew where Massapequa and Wantagh are but not Seaford.

2. You can't go anywhere without seeing someone you know.

3. You were once a football player or a cheerleader for the Broncos.

4. Your middle school planner was filled with drawings of the "cool S" for Seaford.

11. You spent your time before and after the fair on the wooden bridge.

12. Carmine's was your favorite pizza place.


13. In high school, your weekends were spent at Cedar (or a random parking lot).

14. When you went to another school for a game, you realized how much cooler and bigger that school was.

25. Although your town is small and there's nothing to do, you'd never regret the friends and memories you've made.

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.
