9 Ways "Scrooged" Accurately Shows December Finals Week

Finals are always obnoxious, but finals week in December just kills the whole holiday vibe that people have. It makes you forget that you're about to have a nice break from school because of how much cramming you now have to do - even if you study bit by bit the week before, you're still going to find something you have to know for the final right before taking it. If you haven't seen Scrooged, you seriously need to watch it because it's hilarious, and it actually represents what finals week looks like in December for all of us.

1) When you hear your classmates stress-cramming and they ask you for all the notes the night before

2) ...But then you find out you didn't take that one note down in lecture and now you need them too

3) When you try to explain to yourself that your obviously stupid answer on the test is somewhat correct

4) When you're dead from taking more than one exam in a day and people ask if you're "OK"

5) When the know-it-all walks out claiming they aced the final

6) When you go to the wrong classroom to take the final, and no one texted you back on where it is so you have to figure it out on your own

6) When it hits you that you didn't study one small thing in your notes and now you're struggling on this question

7) When everybody's delirious from studying all day and night

8) When you realize that the final is creeping up on you and you try to accept the fact that you can't know everything one hour before the exam

9) When you're finally done with all your finals and realize it's winter break

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.

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.
