Being alone and being lonely are two very different things. Any introverted person can tell you that. Being an introvert in a world that requires you to be an extrovert in order to be successful can be stressful above anything else. As an introvert, it is difficult when you surround yourself with extroverts who just don’t get it. So, here are the top 5 things that all introverts hate more than anything else.

1. Being in large groups of people when they don't have the energy to be around people:

2. When people ask "why are you so sad/angry?!" when really you just want to be alone:

3. There is always that one person that you just wanna punch because they don't get it and they don't even make an attempt to try and understand:

4. When someone tells you that you need to "lighten up" and "have fun":

5. When you FINALLY get to go home and be alone in bed:

Overall, being an introvert isn't a bad thing. It also doesn't necessarily mean that you hate being around people in general. Being an introvert means that sometimes you just need a little bit more alone time than some people. Still, this is something that some people just do not understand. So, if you are a little bit more on the introverted side, then don't worry, you aren't alone! If you know people who tend to be a bit more on the introverted side, then I hope that this little article helped you understand what it is like for an introvert a bit more.

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.

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.
