12 Times Doing Your Wildcat is Not Only Fitting, But What Good Aggies Do
Texas A&M Twitter

At Texas A&M, we are very rich in tradition. With this tradition, comes a language all its own. That being said, it is very common to find Aggies yelling "Howdy!", "Thanks and Gig 'Em", and hissing whenever they don't like something. Pull-Out Day is fast approaching, and as the FTA Class of 2020 (A-A-A-A-A) prepares to wh**p for the first time, here are 12 times doing your wildcat is not only fitting but the right thing to do.

1. When class is cancelled.

Nothing is better than receiving an email that your class is canceled.

2. When your professor says they curve.

Don't get me wrong, I'll still try on exams, but that curve will be my saving grace.

3. When there are no lines to get food.

On a campus of 60,000+ students, not having to wait in line is something to celebrate

4. ON PULL-OUT DAY!!!

Sorry to all my non-Aggie friends, you probably think I'm crazy for counting down the days. (only three more) Another apology to the class of 2021, one more year!

5. When your crush texts back fast.

Now I can talk to them all d-A-A-A-A-A-y!

6. When you hear your class year.

I'm constantly going to be asking people "What's 10+10", "What year are we graduating in?", "Anybody know what hour 8:00 is in military time??"

7. When both Aggie men and women are in the Sweet Sixteen.

For the first time in history, I might add.

8. When you (almost) beat Alabama.

27-19 can count as an almost win... right???

9. When you see the Queen.

Bonus points if you get to pet her.

10. Any sporting event, ever.

And I really mean any sporting event.

11. When you find that perfect study spot.

If you're gonna spend seven hours at Evans, may as well have the perfect spot right?

12. When there's no traffic in Texas.

A girl can dream.

Texas A&M has their own language, and there's really no wrong time to do your wildcat. Thanks and Gig 'Em!

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.

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.
