Mark Twain once said, "To understand the world, you must understand a place like Mississippi."

Anybody who has even visited Mississippi State knows that Mississippi State is a unique place and has lots of special places that MSU one of a kind. Here are just twenty-six (out of very many) of those special places, events, things, and more listed from A-Z that make Starkville, Mississippi a special place and where we wanted to spend the best four (or maybe more) years of our lives.

Allen Hall

Having a class here is a right of passage.

Baseball

It's kind of a big deal.

Cowbell

Also known as, "The only perscription."

Davis Wade Stadium

Also known as "The loudest stadium," and yes we earned that title.

Egg Bowl

Veruca Salt and Mississippi State have one thing in common, we both just really want that Golden Egg.

Fraternity Row

So many memories.

Greek Bus

The place where you will see at least one person that you will recognize.

Humphrey Couselium

"Basketball is my favorite sport. I love the way they dribble up and down the court..."

Insomnia Cookies

When you cannot sleep, the logical thing is to get cookies delivered to your door, right?

Junction

The hardest place to find your friends.

KFC

Yes, we actually have one of these in Starkville.

Left Field Longue

It was the best of times until the renovations took our beloved longue away.

McCool Hall

If you haven't posted a Snapchat story of yourself studying late at night in this building then do you really go to Mississippi State?

Nine Two Nine

If you have not posted an Instagram story of you drinking coffee and studying here then do you actually go to Mississippi State?

Old Main Academic Center

The newest and nicest building at Mississippi State.

Parking Services

It's a nice feeling to know that even Nick Fitzgerald has trouble parking just like the rest of it.


Quidditch

Yes, we offer a Quidditch class for freshman. We are that cool.

Rick's Cafe

So many date parties, so many swaps, so many concerts, so much fun.

Super Bulldog Weekend

Also known as the greatest weekend of the year.

The Cotton District

The place that makes you feel like you're in Europe instead of Mississippi.

U.S. Rocks

If you haven't seen these guys perform are you even a college student?

(The) Veranda

The place we wish we could afford.

Women's Basketball

Let's give it up for these ladies!

XC

Cross country, their sport is your sport's punishment.

Youth Camps

Mississippi State not only provides an educational opportunity for college students but for elementary, middle school and high-school students as well.

Zacharias Village

It is the gem of North Zone.

If their were more letters in the alphabet I am sure Mississippi State would have a person, place or thing for that.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.

Dealing with the inevitable realities of college life.

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.
