20 Tiny Things That Make LSU Students Literally Jump For Joy

As a senior at Louisiana State University, I have endured three years of studying all night, failing a class and being unsure of what I want to do with my life, but I can also say I have experienced a lot of good things too. Just being privileged enough to attend college is definitely one of those good things, but there are many other, some small, good things that have leveled out some of the struggles of being a student. Here are just a few:

1. Canceled classes

Whether you were binge-watching "Game of Thrones," or frantically trying to finish your homework before class, little compares to the feeling of getting an email from your professor saying class is canceled.

2. Quizlet having all the answers to your schoolwork

Shoutout to Quizlet for being the OG and always pulling through. Honestly, whoever created this magnificent website is the reason I am the woman I am today (a future college graduate).

3. Finding a parking spot in under 5 minutes

^ my face when someone leaving gives me their parking spot.

I KNOW all my LSU people understand me on this one.

4. Extended deadlines

^ when the professor pushes back the due date on a project because he knows my lazy ass hasn't even started.

5. Making an A on an exam you should've failed

This is how I know miracles exist.

6. Taking a nap after taking an exam

This is literally when I get the best sleep of my life.

7. Finally getting to eat after being on campus all day

I mean, my campus has food, I'm just broke.

8. Waking up and not being exhausted

Personally, this is a very rare feeling, but a very appreciated one as well.

9. Making a new friend in class

Especially when you didn't know anyone in the class to begin with.

10. Going out and seeing your class friends

11. When the syllabus says "no textbook required"

My wallet thanks you.

12. Extra credit

^me busting into my professors' offices trying to get last minute extra credit.

13. When the professor curves the exam

I want to thank not only God but also Jesus.

14. Getting free things

Whether it's food or a t-shirt promoting a bar, I'm game.

15. Online exams

Idk why, but online exams are just 100,000% better than taking an exam in a huge auditorium.

16. Turning an assignment in early

This is also a very rare feeling, but knowing you're ahead of the game and actually being productive has its perks.

17. Seeing a dog on campus

They're so innocent and completely unaware of the terrors college brings. And they're the best things in the world.

18. Getting into all the classes you wanted

Scheduling is a b*tch, but when it all works out it's the best feeling.

19. Taking a class that actually relates to your future career

You'd think this feeling wouldn't be as rare as it is, but it's college.

20. Turning in your last final before break

^ it really be that way.

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.

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. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
