Sometimes the holiday of love can turn into a not so great time. Whether you are single, talking to someone, or in a relationship, sometimes Valentine's Day can just plain suck. Breakups, bad gifts, or horrible gestures are just some of the things that can happen any day but, becomes worse on February 14th.

Here are nine people's Valentine's Day experiences which are definitely the worst:

1. Spongebob and a rap

"One Valentine's Day my boyfriend invited me to his apartment for a home dinner date. When I got there, the apartment was all done out in Spongebob Valentine's Day decorations, EVERYWHERE. Then after dinner as a "gift," he created a Valentine's Day rap, which was horrible and left me with no idea how to react." - anonymous

2. Parents got home early.

"A couple years ago I made my boyfriend dinner at home while my parents went out for Valentine's Day dinner. They told us when they would be home, so we planned accordingly. Fast forward to making out half-naked on the couch and my parents burst through the door. Never threw a blanket over myself so darn quick." - anonymous

3. Dog ate all my cookies.

"My boyfriend had some favorite kinds of cookies. So one year I made him three of his favorites and wrapped them all pretty and festive. He loved the gift and put it on his bedside table to enjoy, After the gift exchange we went to dinner and when we got back, every single one of the cookies was gone, the dog had eaten them. They called the vet freaking out thinking their dog was going to be sick, but thankfully he was totally okay." - anonymous

4. Expected a feel up.

"My boyfriend at the time got me the normal high school Valentine's Day gifts—the chocolate, the bear, and then flowers. We went out to dinner and then came back to watch a movie. As we are watching the movie he starts to make a move. I was like, let's not and he argued back saying that he gave me a good Valentine's Day with gifts and food and I should be comfortable enough with him feeling me up. Safe to say it didn't last long after that." - anonymous

5. Paid for gift AND dinner.

"Had me make the reservations for dinner, since he was too lazy. Then had me buy the ring I wanted with my gift card and had me pay for dinner with another gift card. Never split or even paid for his own gift to me." - anonymous

6. Boyfriend gave me a bag of cheese.

"Three years of dating. For Valentine's Day, I got a bag of cheese. Worse part, it wasn't even good cheese." - anonymous

7. Lingerie was "cool."

"I spent about $60 on a pretty lingerie set for Valentine's Day. Got all done up and put it on to show him, walked out and his response was 'that's cool.' Even gave him a second chance and said 'isn't the back pretty?' and he said 'yeah that's cool too.'" - anonymous

8. Got the same gift as other girlfriend.

"One year my high school best friend and I were hanging out on Valentine's Day together. Later in the day, my boyfriend stopped over to give me a gift. Little did I know he was also dating my friend I was with and had come there to give both of us our gifts at the same time. To top it off it was the same ugly bear from CVS." - anonymous

9. We broke up

"Literally broke up with me on Valentine's Day." - anonymous

10. Nothing.

"Got absolutely nothing for a gift." - anonymous

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.

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.
