College is about learning how to stay away from these people.

If you're in college, then you have probably met at least one of these people. You would think that everyone in class would have a basic level of consideration for the other people in the class, but not these 11 people. If you can avoid getting through your college career without meeting any of these people, then you are the lucky one here. For those of you who haven't been able to avoid these people, I'm so sorry. And if you are one of these people, please stay across the room, or better yet, in a different class.

1. The perfume wearer

Do you like being able to breathe? Well, that's not going to happen. This person wears too much perfume, Axe, or both. I'd suggest staying as far away as you can, but the smell travels.

2. The one eating strong smelling food

This goes with #1. Just don't bring anything with a strong smell to class. You're in a small space with a bunch of other people who don't want to smell your food.

3. The loud food eater

Less annoying than the assault on your nose, this one is more an assault on your ears. There are quiet things you can eat, or better yet, wait until before or after class.

4. The phone call taker

Either leave the room or don't answer. No one wants to hear about how your cat jumped onto the sofa. Wait until after class.

5. The sick person

We all know someone who would go to class if they were on the brink of death. They are 90% of the reason why colleges always have a major sickness that passes around. Every year, there's either the flu or a cold that reaches most of the student body. Just stay home.

6. The people who would rather talk

I promise, your conversation is probably not more important than what the teacher wants to say. If it is, at least keep the noise to a minimum.

7. Forgot to shower

Showers suck, I get it, but at least shower twice a week. If it's an off day, please wear deodorant. Just don't overdo it (see #1).

8. The smokers

I'm not saying quit smoking, I'm just saying quit smoking right before class. You shouldn't smell like smoke (cigarette or otherwise) to everyone sitting near you.

9. The students who take up the entire row

I shouldn't even need to tell you why you're a jerk. Stop it.

10. The creep

Continued from #9, stop it. That girl doesn't want to talk to you. That guy probably just wants to get through the class. If they're making it apparent they're not interested, leave them alone. "But I'm being nice," you might say. No, you're not. Being nice means that you don't force people into conversations with you.

11. The drunk

If you're going to show up drunk, at least share. I can assure you no one else wants to be sober in this class. Seriously though, if you have to drink right before class (pregaming, am I right?) don't get so hammered that you get sick.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
