College before finals time is nothing but hectic. Trying to get all of your work done and see everyone before you leave for a months break is a lot to manage, you barely have time to schedule your many needed emotional breakdowns.

Final weekends of partying

When you start to realize that you will not be drinking with your friends who have become your emotional sense of being for a month.


Feels like every class has held off on giving work until now

When your teacher assigns another 10 page paper on top of a 20 page paper and a test.

Getting to the point of not caring

when you and your friends are together and talk about just not doing a final...

Sleeping through one class because you stayed up all night doing work for another

making your roommate fully aware of that class you have in the morning.. what it really means is if I do not get up do not wake me up but I did have the intentions of going


Trying to still look like a human

Getting ready becomes a group effort and everyone pitches in to make sure we all make it out the door looking half way decent

Coffee, Coffee, Coffee!

Coffee is the only way you are surviving these last three weeks

Trying to remember why you are even in college

trying to remember why we can't just all be given a handle of money

BUT IT EVENTUALLY ENDS and you can put that semester in the closest and never open it again

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.
