8 Things Everyone Knows To Be True About Mountain Day

Ahhh Mountain Day! The well-kept secret that keeps students guessing for weeks and hoping that classes will be canceled and we can take a break from campus life. Mountain Day is a lot like Christmas. Everyone wears matching outfits and the day goes by way too fast. Whether it's your first or fourth, Mountain Day is always a day to remember.

1. The bells

Nothing beats the beautiful sounds of the bells going off at 10:05 and the dings of our phones from the email informing us it's Mountain Day.

2. Getting there

Whether you drive yourself or take the buses you're never fully confident the vehicle will make it up that hill.


3. Time to climb

Decisions decisions...Do you take the easier but longer route or the quicker and steeper route. Regardless of which one you choose there's still too many people on the trail at once.

4. You made it

You're finally made it to the top! There's so many people and you need to take jumping pics with all of them!

5. Trail choice

As if making this the first time was hard enough you have to make it a second time!

6. The cookout

No better way to end a beautiful hike than with some cookout food!


7. Nap time

It was a long day..need I say more?



8. Back to reality

Unfortunately not every day is Mountain Day and you still have to write that paper. Although you'll definitely need to make corrections tomorrow when you're more..awake.


Until next time.

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.

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.
