Asking Your Parents For Money As Told By Raven Baxter
Youtube / Disney Channel

A hilarious series that is still referenced today is Disney Channel’s hit show That’s So Raven. Raven can see into the future and has visions about what is going to happen before it happens. If only she could see that she was going to run out of money, just like all of us college students do all too often.

Checking your bank account app is always a horrible and terrifying experience, and is only made worse when it is paired with the realization that you are forced to ask your parents for money. Find out if you react similarly to Raven Baxter when pleading for extra cash.

Opening your phone and staring at the bank app.

Gathering the stamina to actually open the app.

Finally opening it and bracing yourself to check the account balance.

Realizing that there are four dollars left in your account.

Thinking about the bad decisions you made to waste all of your money.

Remembering that some of those wasteful decisions were actually very fun.

When your friends ask what's wrong when you have to call your parents and ask for money to be transferred.

Asking a friend to help you convince your parents to make a Venmo.

When they ask why you went out to dinner so many times instead of eating in the dining hall.

Pouting when they resist.

Giving them a fake compliment to butter them up.

Listening to them finally giving in.

Celebrating and telling your friends dinner's on you!

Spending all the money they gave you in less than two weeks and realizing you will have to go through this entire process once again.

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.
