7 Common Reactions Of Any UAlbany Student

When you've been a student at the University At Albany for more than a semester, you begin to realize things that start to get on your nerves. Whether its being hustled by a cab driver or the school seemingly starving you out every chance they get. Here's a list of some of the things UAlbany students find themselves reacting to on a day to day basis.


1. When some idiot sets off the fire alarm in your building at an ungodly hour and wakes you up.

Even if you've been in UAlbany for as little a month, you know damn well that theres been at least one occurrence of some moron trying to make popcorn at 3am and ultimately failing. This immediately results to a blaring noise that no human could possibly sleep/sit through for more than 5 minutes without wanting jump out of their window.


2. When your cab driver tries to charge you more than 3 dollars a person.

As UAlbany students, I think we've all had to deal with the occasional greedy cab driver who thinks its normal to charge a group of more than 3 people 5 dollars a person for a 5 minute taxi ride. You're taking us to Quail street not Vermont.


3. When the temperature falls below 0 degrees.

Let's just say going to school in the Tundra would have been equally as difficult.


4. Running into a UAPD officer before or after doing something illegal.

"I swear to drunk I'm not God, officer."


5. When the vending machine in your building is out of service or not accepting munch money.

If you're gonna close the dining hall at 8pm, at LEAST let me eat my snacks.


6. When your at a party downtown and you lose your friends.

There's no scarier feeling than turning around for a second at a party and losing your entire friend group.* Play it cool, play it cool*


7. When they close the only dining hall with edible food to try and force you to go to a sports game.


I DONT CARE if there's a football game today, stop trying to force me to represent a team that isn't even that good by starving me out.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
