Dear Tutwiler,

My shower never got warm this morning.

But the girl in the shower next to mine was blasting Kenny Chesney, so it turned out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

The air conditioner got stuck at 50 degrees today.

This forced everyone to bring their blankets to the common room and bundle up, while we played Cards Against Humanity, so it turned out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

The sink where I brushed my teeth and washed my face was filled with ramen.

But as I brushed my teeth, my friend from down the hall told me her wild tales from the night before, so it turned out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

The heater was on full blast today.

So my next-door-neighbor and I went for a walk, to cool off in the Alabama breeze. It turned out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

Day after day, we are trapped in an 8x10 box.

But it only makes us grow closer to our roommates and our neighbors, so it's all okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

Last night I got woken up at midnight by a girl coming home late from her boyfriend's.

She cried on my shoulder and told me about the breakup, and I walked her down to Julia's to get ice cream and talk all night. It all turned out okay. He didn't deserve her anyway.

Dear Tutwiler,

In the fall, everyone will move to apartments and sorority houses, and new freshman will move in. No longer will there be long nights of doing each other's makeup and eating Dominoes. From then on, we'll only see each other in passing, and we'll surely grow apart.

But we'll have a year of memories to last forever, so it will turn out okay.

Dear Tutwiler,

Thank you.

Sincerely,

A Tutwiler Resident

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:

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.
