The Best Weekend: Mom's Weekend

Let me start out by saying I love my mother. She is my number one, and my mentor. She taught me everything I know. She thinks I'm an angel (because I am) that frequents the library, keeps his face in the books, and generally sacrifices a whole lot of time for the sake of education. While I do go to the library, sometimes, and I do hit the books hard, how on earth do you warn your mom about what's about to happen later that evening?

The first time I had my mother over to the house, I was terrified. I cleaned, I disinfected, I did literally everything I could to ensure that my mom did not think that I was a degenerate living in a pile of empty beer cans, stale food and dirty underwear. Oh, I was nervous, alright -- not to introduce her to my friends, but to introduce her to what we had planned for that night. Consisting primarily of wine and more wine, it really unnerved my mom's initial impression. However, when introduced to other moms around the party, the night was quickly saved. The day afterwards, my mother told me that she was nervous at first but when she made some friends it was just like the old days for her. Mother's weekend is a great way for moms to unwind for a weekend.

Having sorority mothers over is quoted by Akon as "the dopest weekend ever because they bring really nice booze and it's hilarious seeing a bunch of drunk moms running around." What starts out as innocent small talk, quickly snowballs into a much more lively scene. Once the liquid courage starts to build up, mothers hit the dance floor like they have never done before. Friendships form in a matter of seconds simply because you made a stupid joke about your friend to her mom. The best part about those friendships is that not only will the mom maybe hook you up with some really nice booze, but you also might have the opportunity to rub in your friends face that "your mom is in love with me."

Eventually the mothers get tuckered out. Even coming into the party with the, "I have to be able to hang out with my son's/daughter's friends, I'm not old yet" mentality, all moms hit their limit. Rides are called and hugs are given at the door. Moms make friends with their kid's friends and everyone is happy.

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.
