It took me awhile to realize that I have a RBF. It wasn’t until I was in high school and someone came up to me in the hallway (one of my class friends) and asked if I was OK because I looked mad. I was so confused because I was actually having a pretty good day. If you suffer from RBF like me then you would understand these encounters and maybe even relate to some of them.


1. Your friends tell you afterward that they saw you on campus but didn’t say “hi” because you looked mad.

I was truly just walking to class like any other day but all right.

2. A friend tells you originally they were scared to talk to you.

Almost every person I have met has said this.

3. Your professor calls you out all the way in the back row to put a smile on your face.

I was just trying to listen to your lecture. I’m sorry if my RBF was affecting you that much (oops).

4. A stranger at a bar asks if you’re OK.

I’m literally just standing here (not to mention I’m with five other people). Thank you for being concerned, though.

5. Random people will give you rude looks or roll their eyes while at a mall or even a park.

I thought they were just being rude but I guess they think I’m doing the same thing to them (my bad guys).

6. Another stranger walks past you and tells you “be happy!"

Once again I’m just standing here with my friends and I am having a fun night, really I am.

7. The only two seats open in the entire class are the ones beside you.

Well, that's not obvious at all.

8. A guy tells you he didn't talk to you first because you looked like a b*tch.

I'm sorry I look so unapproachable.

9. You actually try to work on your face but people still ask if you’re OK.

Can someone please tell me how to have a pleasant face while just resting?

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.
