College is an adventure in itself. Each day contains small adventures that, combined, equal one big adventure that you'll look back on someday. You'll look at the good and the bad, knowing that it helped you grow. Disney movies are very much the same way.

As a kid, you watch Disney movies. As a teen, you still watch disney movies. But it isn't until you go to college that Disney characters' struggles become your struggles. If only you had time to go watch all these movies instead of doing homework...

1. When it's your first night away from home

What are you supposed to do with all this freedom? Hopefully, find the Sully to your Mike.

2. Being asked why you'd move somewhere where there's a real winter

Okay, maybe it does a little. But honestly, there are much more interesting things to talk about, so let it go...

3. Realizing the weather is really no joke

The first time you walk outside in the wind chill, your legs go numb. You also might feel like you don't have a skull...or bones....

4. When someone isn't trying to eat at the dining hall with you


Actually, though, no one will look at you weird for eating alone like they would in high school. Especially if the dining hall has your favorite spicy chicken strips.

5. When someone sets off the fire alarm in your dorm or Greek house

If you were asleep, or were in the shower and have to go outside in your towel, it'll be hard to keep your cool.

6. Trying to function in the morning

Even if you got plenty of sleep, you'll still feel like a zombie stumbling into the kitchen to make your coffee.

7. Coming back to your room after a long day

Actually though, having a lofted bed sucks because you can't do this. You have to get up the strength to climb into your bed, so that you can plop face-down onto it.

8. Preparing yourself to flirt at parties


Whether you know your crush is going to be there or you're just trying to find someone cute to dance with, you have to try to flaunt what you've got.

9. When you're getting ready for said party but part of you just wants to order pizza and watch Netflix instead


You know how exhuasted you'll be after making small talk for 20 minutes.

10. When people are yelling while walking down the street on a Friday night, knowing there are cops around


Are you trying to get caught? And after drinking one beer?

11. When your crush is talking to you but you're awkward and have no idea what to say

You might as well not have a voice at all, because, around the person you like, you clam right up!!

12. When the well-known frat boy walks by

He's just so gorgeous, it makes you so mad. You can't say anything to his face...

13. When a professor doesn't respond to your email right away


Even though you're the one who forgot to ask them a question after lecture, it's still a rough time.

14. When your friend gets a bae

As the single friend, you have to live vicariously though your friends.

15. Wondering how many frogs you'll have to kiss before finding your prince or princess


You don't want to waste your good kisses on frogs. But kisses are nice, so it's a struggle.

17. Questioning your decision-making time after time


You mean well, but you tend to get carried away.

18. When you call your mom freaking out and she's not having it

She's always there to keep you in line when you're in a rut. And, she doesn't hesitate to say how much she hates when you get in ruts.

19. When you realize you don't need to be so hard on yourself


There's so much you're doing right. You're physically healthy, you've gotten almost all A's, and you've made great memories.

20. And you'd better enjoy college while it lasts!

Cherish your time in this bubble between being a kid and adult. You'll miss it!

If college students are going through it, Disney characters have gone through it. It's a fact.

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:

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.

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.
