End of the Semester Treats

We're almost there!!!

The final weeks of the semester are always incredibly stressful, boring, and evil and sometimes there never seems to be an end in sight. You probably forgot what it was like to sleep, socialize, or just try to relax. Don't worry, you're almost there! Here are some end of the semester treats awaiting you that you probably completely forgot about!

Eating Real Food

Remember real food that didn't taste like garbage? Remember what it was like to have a variety of different foods that weren't just burgers, fries, pizza, and pasta from your college dining hall? Guess what, you get to eat real food again! It may only be for a few weeks, but you'll finally resuscitate the taste buds you thought were long gone. Oh, and you'll stop having the shits from the stuff they put in college foods!

Actually Celebrating the Holidays

Oh shit, Christmas is coming up! You had absolutely no time to watch any holiday flicks or listen to Christmas music! To be honest, you probably completely forgot it was the holiday season because colleges don't decorate for shit! I mean yeah, there are those generic holiday lights they put up, but they don't even bother trying to decorate for all of the holidays collectively. Well, once the semester ends you can go crazy watching all of your holiday movies and listening to all of the music and actually feel like a human being again. Hooray for holidays!

Bingeing the Hell Out of TV Shows

Sadly, I can't start re-watching some of my favorite shows until the semester ends, but don't forget, we all get to become vegetables on our couches watching endless amounts of television and having absolutely no responsibilities once it's done! It's like summer break all over again! Damn, I miss having no responsibilities.

Seeing Our Friends From Home

Soon we can actually start seeing some of our other friends from home (assuming they are free) and not annoying the hell out of our college friends. It's good to have some balance, but enough on that; I already wrote too many articles on balancing life.

Actually Going to Other Places Again

When your campus has no town and nothing to do and you have no car, your life is pretty much bound to one little area and you are trapped in a bubble. However, between visiting family and friends for the holidays, hanging out at all of your favorite places, going on some winter vacations, and actually being in your house for a long period of time, you'll feel like a renowned explorer. Look at you having a life outside of school!

Hopefully I got you hyped for your winter break. Again, the end is almost near, so do your best! Now get the hell back to that 8 million page paper!

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. 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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.
