7 Signs You're Ready for Winter Break

It's that time of the year again. And no, I don't mean that time of the year where you get to go home and gather around your dinning room table to eat turkey with the family. I mean that time of the year where you are drowning in papers and exams and little homework assignments and chugging to to the end of the semester. For some of you (like me!!!) it will be your last fall semester struggle of your undergrad career. For others, it's just the beginning and you're probably quite frazzled (you're in the big leagues now kid, man up or you won't survive).

Needless to say, you're over this semester. You want your classes to end and you want to go back to your nice comfy bed in a room without a roommate and chill with your friends from high school.

Here are 7 signs that you're totally ready for Winter Break:

1. You're been counting down the days since Fall Break.

2. You're group chat is filled with plans for Winter Break and everyone complaining about homework.


3. You were supposed to be working on your final paper all semester, but you waited till the night before the rough draft was due to start it...


4. You're only non-take home final is on the first day of finals, so you have less time to study, but get to go home earlier.


5. Your friends want you to go out and drink, but you'd rather lay in bed and watch Netflix.


6. But you realize the homework is also going to taunt you while you're in your room, so you go out anyway.


7. A professor asks how you're doing and your only answer is:

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
