There's always an interesting variety of fellow classmates but it seems like the small community college classroom summertime semesters bring the different types of students directly to your attention. Being in such a small class can be awesome and annoying all at the same time.

1. The “I go to *insert university here*” transient student. 

The person in your class who is only there for the one class. They go to the bigger “better” school. They’re only there because the class is “easier” and cheaper.

2. The “I didn’t study LOL” student. 

I totally didn’t study. Pray for me guys.

3. The super serious down to business “I’m here for a degree only” student. 

Definitely not here to make friends.

4. The “I’m so confused please help” student. 

There’s always that one person who is confused no matter how much explaining is done. You just can’t help some people.

5. The “Hey, I wasn’t here can you send me the notes” student.

We're here for two months, like, you might want to show up. Once or twice, yeah I'll help you, but... Every. Freakin. Week? I can't pass the class for the two of us.

6. The “do you have the answer to this one? Oh and the rest of the questions on this hand out??” student. 

Um, yeah sure. Just take a picture.

7. The “ I’ve failed this class 3 times so I’ve got to pass it this semester” student. 

I'm no genius but you might want to pick a different major. Oh, and these types of students *always have the answers from the semester before and they offer them as help. Yes, I will use your work considering you've done so well in the past, thank you.

8. The “I made a quizlet I can send it you guys if you want” student. 

You are a rare breed. For you, we are forever grateful.

9. The “I did so bad on that test” student. 

Oh no, what grade did you get? 91? Oh ok. *Cries because you thought your 75 was killing it.

Honestly, we've all been at least one of these types of students if not several in our college career. Enjoy your hot summer days in a classroom full of these folks!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.
