6 Reasons My Roommates Actually Rock

Dear beloved roommates,

It most certainly isn't easy living with 10 of you, but somehow I think we do a very good job of getting by. Sure, we get on each other's nerves sometimes, but at the end of the day, I know you all are there for me just as much as I am here for you. Really I would just like to thank you for somehow putting up with all my craziness and dysfunction.

1. To our blessed brunch dates

I'll never be able to think of something that I enjoy as much as these. On any note, when it's a beautiful spring Sunday morning, all you really feel like doing is getting some of the best crepes in town with your favorite girls.


2. To getting more access to more clothes than you can imagine

I also would like to take this time to thank you all for making my closet expand to 10 times the size it normally would be if I didn't live with you all. I can attest to the fact that by this point, there usually isn't a function or event that I attend without adorning myself with clothing that most likely isn't even mine.


3. To forgiving me whenever I don't think

Whether I left my OneCard inside our suite, or fail to drive with caution even when I have you all in my car, locking my actual car keys in my car, or even when I do things like forgetting to turn off the water and accidentally putting my mac and cheese in the microwave without adding the water, but the fact of the matter is that you all are always here to support me no matter what shenanigan I get myself into.


4. To buying me food on occasion

We're all college students here, so it's understandable that we can't always afford to eat out all the time. And when I can't afford to go to Islands for the third time in one week, it's nice to know that someone will be there to pick up my tab when I can't. Because honestly who else is going to get tacos with me when I don't have time to make my own food?


5. To never complaining about doing my hair

I've never been the type that will successfully be able to do my hair in the form of any braid. For some reason, the concept of splitting my hair into three parts and then interweaving those three parts has never come easily to me. And when I get out of the shower and the very last thing I feel like doing is my hair, it's nice to know someone is always there to do it for me.


6. To cleaning up after me

Whether I've left all my stuff in the living room again, or my laundry that has been piling up for weeks just laying around, you all play mom and return my belongings to my room. I never thought that even after moving to college I would get the chance to have someone pick up for me that isn't my mom.

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.
