College as told by Broadway Musicals

Whether you are a freshman just starting out or a senior who is almost done, Broadway musicals have a certain way of explaining just how you are feeling at any certain moment.

If I know anything, it is that you can learn a lot from Broadway musicals. From American history in Hamilton and Newsies to life lessons from Dear Evan Hansen and Legally Blonde. One thing I have found recently, however, from watching so many Broadway musicals is that they do a really good job of explaining exactly what college life is like. Whether you are a freshman just starting out or a senior who is almost done, Broadway musicals have a certain way of explaining just how you are feeling at any certain moment. So if you need a break from studying or you just need a good laugh to get through the stress, here is just a few times when Broadway musical pretty explained what you were thinking or what you needed to say and did not know how to put into words. (Note some images are not from Broadway musical, but these shows have been Broadway musicals at one time.)

1. When you think a professor is out to get you / destroy your life and you decide to rebel but only in your head because they're scary and you don't a worse grade.

2. When you're ready to give up on life and become a hobo because you're so homesick and you know of a fact you're going to fail at life.

3. When one of your professor's goes through the power point way too fast and no one in your class was able to keep up either so you're totally lost.

4. When you given into your procrastination for too long and you finally decide to stop wasting time and change your ways.

5. When you unexpectedly get into an easy class that you didn't expect to have and you don't have anything to do in it. #Blessed

6. When one of your classes is canceled and you can sleep in an extra hour, which you seriously need because you stayed up way too late the night before "studying.

7. When you get put in a group with a bunch of people who won't do anything and you end up doing all the work yourself.

8. When your teacher claims she/he will have something graded by the end of the week, but it's Sunday night and you're still obsessively checked Blackboard finally realizing that your teacher full of lies.

9. When you do better on a test than you previously thought and now you no longer believe that you're going to fail out of college and die.

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.

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.
