5 Reasons Why Going Back To College After Break Is The Best

A lot can happen at school in a year. You can move to college, create a home for yourself, and meet and become close to the best friends you will ever have. You can join clubs, get a job on campus, and succeed academically. It's hard to leave all of that (well maybe not the classes and homework) and go home where things are completely different for 3 months.

You are no longer free of responsibilities and chores your parents give you, and you are far away from the people you once saw every day. There are some perks to being home like the free and good food, seeing your family, your own bed, but after the first month most students just can't wait to get back to their college. Here are some reasons why:

1. FREEDOM


When students get to college and their parents leave, this is everyone's first thought.We may still have responsibilities but we are free from our parents nagging, and checking up on where we are and what we're doing every hour. It feels pretty great until we realize we actually have to do everything by ourselves or else it won't get done.

2. Being reunited with all of your friends

That first epic hug you and your friend give when you see each other always reminds you of why you're happy to be back at school

3. PARTY

Once everyone is back to school the parties are constant and there aren't too many people checking up on you or asking you to check in.

4. SLEEP

Don't you just love constantly being woken up by your parents as they say "You're sleeping the day away"? No? Didn't think so. After a long night of partying or homework you need sleep. Their aren't many people who will attempt to even come near a sleeping college student unless they want their life to end.

5. You're back to participating in your favorite sport or club.

As tiring as early practices, double sessions, games, rehearsals, and club meetings may be, it's good to be back doing one of the many things that attracted a student to the college. It's hard to go the whole summer without the sport or club a student participates in everyday.

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.

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.
