5 College Moments As Told By The Golden Girls
Huffingtion Post

College is a difficult time to adjust to, however, you tend to find things to can relate to that helps you in certain situations. Here are 5 ways I've related to the Golden Girls my first semester of college:

1. "I'm depressed, I need a cookie."

For college freshmen, the hardest thing is adjusting to moving away from your family, and possibly learning how to live in a small space with close to a total stranger. Things are awkward at first, but eventually you become friends with your roommate, and things start to become normal (until you're lying in bed late and night and you miss the odd sounds and smells of home). Being sad is normal for college freshmen, just remember a simple cookie could make you happy.

2. "Blanche, I could get herpes listening to this story."

Remember in high school when girls were usually pretty quiet about what they were doing with their boyfriend, and even quieter about what they were doing with a random guy they hooked up with? For some reason, college girls have lost that filter. They'll tell a whole bus full of strangers about the five frat guys they've hooked up within the past two hours. Some girls will proudly post their body count on their dorm door, but don't worry! That door decoration got taken down the day before Parents' Weekend.

3. "Your heart's in the right place, but I don't know where the hell your brain is."

They always tell you to go to your professor's office hours, and they'll help you with anything. I swear, after going to my first office hours with a professor, I walked out feeling like they directly quoted Sophia and then proceeded to tell me to get out.

4. "Picture it, Sicily, 1912."

You will always find that one person in college who's still stuck in high school. You'll hear countless stories about how they were the best athlete at their high school, or how they were the best in their class. It will get annoying, but I promise that remembering Sophia during their stories may help you laugh a little.

5. "Go to sleep, sweetheart. Pray for brains."


When that really annoying kid that sits beside you in class has asked for you to tutor him. First off, I hope you're getting paid because he's done nothing but sit on his cell phone all lecture, every lecture. Second, sometimes it's okay to give up on them, especially if you've discussed the difference between water and air, but they still don't get the point. Just don't tell them you've given up, wish them luck on their exam, and tell them to get some rest. After all, it's not your fault that they didn't pay attention.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
