From The College Student That Needs An 'A'

An open letter to final exams.

Dear Final Exams,

It has been a while since we last spoke, and I think we need to talk some things out before we see each other again.

When we first met, I never expected you to hurt me the way you did. I was young and naive and thought that, without studying, I could earn your acceptance and get an A in the course.

I thought wrong.

However, I am giving you another chance this semester. I truly think that we can get over our wrongs in the past. I know that I said some rude things before, you probably wanted to cry over your lead infested pages, and I apologize for that. But you also completely screwed me over. Lets be real, when did we learn half of the questions that you asked me? We didn't. You asked them anyway. However, it was wrong of me to hate you and be scared of you. It was wrong of me to expect so little of you and underestimate your ability to lower my grade.

You have taught me that one hour of studying immediately before our encounter, is not the best idea.Through it all, I have learned to admire you your difficulty. After all, who would want to take a test that's as easy as that blonde across the hall? (by the way, the answer is everyone. I'm just sucking up).

But back to the point, we will meet again in a short couple of weeks and I would like you to take into consideration how hard I have worked this semester. I have stayed up late, pulled all-nighters, and have only skipped like four classes. As compared to the..many more that I skipped last semester, I would say that I did quite well! Please take that into account when we meet again!

So with that, I will see you soon. My brain will be filled with hopefully useful information and I will be fully prepared to kick your butt, don't take it personally. But if you could help me out, buy giving me a couple of obvious multiple choice questions, I wouldn't be all that upset!

Sincerely,

The Student Who Needs an A

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.
