College has it's ups and downs. It takes you through some of the most stressful moments of your life and helps you experience some of the best. You meet people from different walks of life. As much as you love it, sometimes you can hate it. So, here are some of your favorite characters from Riverdale to let you know you're not alone in your college escapades.

1. Trying to understand what your professor is talking about.


It can be the ultimate struggle, especially when it's in a subject you're not the best at. If you've got as much determination as Cheryl, you'll get through even the toughest of classes.

2. When you have senoritis as a freshman.

Completely enjoying classes, especially after your first semester, can be a struggle. Sometimes, you can't shake that senioritis you had in high school. Don't worry, it happens to the best of us.

3. When you're unofficial assigned seat is taken in your lecture.

If college had a handbook, this would be in the top five things to avoid doing. Especially when it's halfway through the semester.

4. Passing that exam that you studied all night for.

Of course, your blood is probably 90% coffee at this point too, but congratulations! Just make sure you get in a nap immediately after.

5. Having to wake up for an 8 AM class.

We've all done it, and it never gets any better. One day, you'll get to look at a schedule that has nothing but afternoon classes. Until then, just keep swimming.

6. When exams, projects, and essays consume your life.

This is especially true when finals roll around. Fear not. Just take a breath and step back from the craziness, even if it's just for five minutes.

7. Being stuck in a group where you do all the work.

On the upside, at least it's getting done and done right. On the downside, everybody is riding your coat tails and there's nothing more annoying than that.

8. Going out with you friends after a long week.

The stress of college can be a lot to handle. When you have a couple of friends that know how to help you unwind after a crazy week, there's nothing that feels better.

9. Realizing you still haven't hit word count on an essay.

Maybe it's been hours. Maybe it's been days. You just want it to be over with already, but that dreaded word count just doesn't seem like it's budging.

10. When you'd rather sit inside and binge Netflix or read a book instead of go out partying.

Some people like to get black out drunk, others like to curl up with hot chocolate and rewatch their favorite rom-com for the 10th time. Do whatever floats your boat.

11. When you're learning something interesting in your favorite class.

Nothing feels better-and possibly more foreign-than when you're sitting in class and actually intrigued in what you're learning. Cherish this moment.

12. Coming down from a caffeine high after a long day of classes.

Remember that "take a nap" warning from earlier? That applies down here too. Caffeine crashes are the absolute worst, and after sitting through hours of lecture you deserve it.

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.
