1. When you see your best friends and roomies after a month of missing them

They're your rock, the thing that keeps you from pulling your hair and teeth out on those stressful nights of studying. Nothing is better than reuniting with them after such a long time apart.

2. When you're trying to sleep your first night back on campus and your neighbors won't shut up at 3 in the morning

Ah, I love the sound of bass and drawers slamming and people screaming when I have to get up in three and a half hours-- wait, NOT. We've all had people like that, whether they live above you, next to you, or even in your own room! Just try to find sme ear plugs and pop a melatonin, my pals.

3. When you finally have unlimited access to the never-ending junk food on campus

Chicken fingers, french fries, Chinese food, ice cream, soda, pie-- you name it, i can get it at any given time on my campus. And who would rather eat broccoli over a slice of pizza anyways? Maybe I should add work on impulse control to my to-do list...

4. When you have to wake up and walk in the cold to your 8 AM class

It's the first week of classes, first impressions are everything! There's no excuses for not going. My suggestion is to make at least three cups of coffee and make sure you're dressed warmly!

5. When the professor is going over the syllabus

Blah, blah, blah. Same stuff, different professor. We know not to cheat or use our phone in class. We also know you don't want to be here just as much as us.

6. When your assigned an essay on the first day of class

College isn't for the weak, my buds. There's no waiting period to ease back into the swing of things. Essays happen, especially at the beginning of the semester. Don't be like Chris, it won't be the end of the world! If you're stuck, visit your campus writing center, they'll be glad to help!

7. When you've conquered the first week of classes


One down 16 more to go! 16 more tiring, stressful, anxiety-ridden weeks... but we got this, right guys?

8. When you and your besties get to finally hang out on the weekend


Time to let loose, shake your booty, drink something fun, and get your sax ready! The first weekend back is always a wild one-- just make sure to do your homework once you recover!

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.

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.
