Finals are finally over and it's summer time! While there is nothing better than having no school for three months, the transition from complete freedom to being back under the rule of your parents is a hard one. Coming back home is a bitter-sweet experience and these thoughts are just a few that I had returning back home.

1. I can't wait to sleep in my own bed

The first thing I did when I got home was take a nap in my bed. While my bed at school was pretty comfortable, there is nothing like your own bed at home.

2. I wonder how much of my stuff my siblings stole.

After I took the wonderful nap, I immediatley went through my siblings rooms (mainly my sisters) and made sure that none of my stuff magically found itself in their rooms.

3. Having my own room again is amazing

I loved my roommates so much but having my own space again is the best thing. Now whenever I need to be alone, I don't have to sit in the corner of the third-floor of the library, I can just go to my room.

4. Real food!

This needs no explanation. There is nothing like food that hasn't been sitting under a heater for hours.

5. Wait, why do I need a curfew

This was first thing that made me realize that I am definitely not at college anymore.

6. Okay, I'm bored

I love being home, but there is not much to do. At school, I'm used to having something to do all the time. The first couple of days at home, having nothing to do was amazing but now I'm already bored.

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.
