7 Signs You've Partied At Last Call

7 Signs You've Partied At Last Call
Ariana Noor

Everyone hears the good 'ole rumors that SEMO is a complete party school. Well, those rumors are completely true. As I was leaving SEMO this past weekend, my friend was looking around at the college town and said, "Man, I really feel like this whole town is hungover."

Yes, you've all heard of the fraternity parties, but there is a bar down there that I wish would legit fly all the way to Edwardsville, where I go to school, and replace our bars completely. If you've been here, you know what I'm talking about.

1. You uploaded a picture on Instagram and used their location "The Last Call."

This is the reason that I even knew about this bar in the first place. Seriously, everyone who goes to SEMO seems to spend more time here than anywhere else in Cape.

2. "Big Calls" changed your life.

How much would a 32-ounce drink be in St. Louis? Probably like $10-12. Well, here I was mind blown to find out that their 32-ounce drinks or "Big Calls" were actually $3. Three dollars for a 32-ounce drink of whatever you wanted.

3. You've probably danced on the stage way too much.

The cool thing about the way that this bar is set up is that there is a huge stage that people stand on and dance. When you're getting huge drinks for so cheap, it's almost impossible to not dance on this stage.

4. The playlist. Not just your typical bar songs.

You know those bars that you go to that repeat the same "hit songs" over and over again? Last Call was not one of those bars. One second you could be listening to a hit song then all of a sudden it would be a straight throwback from the early 2000's that got everyone dancing. They do a great job of keeping everyone lit.

5. You can literally wear whatever you want a no one will judge you.

I saw people there in formal dresses, rompers, sweatpants and a t-shirt, makeup, and no makeup. It doesn't matter. People go there to have a good time and do not care what they look like.

6. Cardinal's tickets.

You could win 4 all-inclusive Cardinal's tickets the weekend I was down there just for buying a "Big Call." Literally, it made me want to buy like 30.

7. It is a place that you'll always remember when you look back on your college memories.

"One time some animal got stuck inside of our vents at school, so the school closed and the bars opened up and we had a huge darty." It seems as if so many memories have been made here.

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.

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.
