The Best 13 Spots for Passing Time at Longwood University

But not all spots are equally enjoyable.

According to Google, Longwood University has sixty acres on its property. And according to me, most students here end up with an oddball hour or two on campus each day when it makes no sense to go home (especially if they don't live on main campus), but they also have nowhere to be. As one of those students with oddball hours that need to be passed somewhere, I have a few recommendations for the best places to waste some time:

1. The first floor of Ruffner, in the Rotunda.

2. The benches with the cover by Ruffner fountain.

3. The top floor of the STU, where the comfy couches are in the ballroom.

4. The balcony on the top floor of the STU.

5. The downstairs of the STU, inside or out.

6. The room with the fake fireplace in the upstairs of the library.

7. The Grand in D-Hall.

8. The sofas at the entrance of the library.

9. The chairs in the hall of Bedford.

10. By the dancing fountains.

11. The chairs along Brock Commons.

12. The group study area upstairs in the library.

13. The chairs and tables on the second and third floors of Ruffner.

Whether the weather is hot or cold weather or rain or sunshine, there is always a new place to go kill some time at Longwood. Maybe from this list you'll find your new favorite study spot.

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.
