Top Three Things I Will Miss As Undergrad Slowly Comes To A Close
Picgood

Thanksgiving break is on its way and that means Fall semester is almost over. That also means my senior year is almost over, my thesis is due, and life as I know it is about to get real. I am no longer afraid of moving on from undergrad, I'm more afraid of leaving the memories that have transpired behind. I know that soon I'll be back to relive those same memories again come next Fall at homecoming as an alumna.

Here are the top 3 things that I will miss as graduation is now slowly approaching:

1. My friends, my gal pals, my girlaaaaasss

I will definitely miss my friends. We will be exploring our different career ventures and living life so I know time is of the essence. When we graduate I know that FaceTime and phone calls won't be enough so actual meet up will be epic.

2. Free Time

In undergrad, there's a lot of free time that we all don't know we have until it's gone. Now at the end of Fall semester, I'm realizing that I have so much free time during the day that I don't utilize. Spring semester is coming up I plan to use any amount of free time that comes in sight.

3. Miracles

There's nothing like when a paper is due and your teacher has canceled class AND put an extension on the assignment! Now that's a college miracle! In the real world or the outside world, those don't come often so I'll miss those, they have really saved my life!

There you have it, my top three things that I will dearly miss in undergrad upon graduation 2017.

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.

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.
