Every one has done these things when "Studying" at the library.

The library is a place where you can do just about anything. Trust me. I've seen just about everything. From wine parties to costume parties, the library is a place where college students come to be themselves and get that degree.


1. Underestimate the amount of energy they have.

It all starts with "I'll take a little break from studying to clear my mind." Next thing you know you're passed out in a puddle of drool. Every college student has underestimated just how long that Starbucks iced latte will keep you going. Some of us take graceful naps and just rest our head on the desk, others like myself HIBERNATE.

2. Text..text...and text some more.

"Oooooo text message." "Omg (Insert crush here) texted me." We've all done it before. We sit down to finish that history paper that's due at 11:59 p.m. and we text everyone we possibly can until we realize we have 30 minutes to write a concise thesis and four supporting paragraphs. Admit it.

3. Have a four-course meal.

"Let's get snacks before we go." Doritos, Oreo's, snickers bars, and maybe some ritz crackers. Yeah before you know it you've consumed more calories than words required for your comp paper.

4. Staring contest.

"OMG is he looking at me?" Everyone has sat two tables away from the star baseball player who has that phenomenal jaw line you cannot resist. Instead of memorizing the life cycle of a cell you're counting how many times he looks over at your table.

5. "Hey Check out this video!

YouTube is everyone's vice. Who wouldn't get distracted by videos of talking cats, or the long awaited kiss between Drake and Rihanna? Despite what you're watching no one can resist a funny video when 30 math problems on web assign are staring you down.

6. "Netflix and Chemistry"

Whether you split your computer screen and finish up those Chem problems, or just sit back and finish a full season of Grey's Anatomy. Watching Netflix is something we all do at the library. Heck, I've even seen people watch Netflix in the back of a lecture hall.

7. "I'll print this, and this, and this..."

Everyone takes advantage of the free printer in the library. Some people print out worksheets, others print out the online free version of their textbooks so they can spend their textbook money on fuzzy's and keystone. 943 pages later...


8. Online shopping.

It doesn't matter if your midterm is in seven hours, if Victoria's Secret sends you an alert that seven for 25 deal is going on, you will click the link. Even if your bank account has $.31 left, scrolling through Lulu Lemons fall collection will make you forget about that biology test.


9. Socialize.


Maybe it's just me but whenever I do go to the library every ex, friend, and enemy are right there with me. Sometimes talking about the latest drama is more important than that 11:59 p.m. deadline.

10. Wait for it... Study.

If you're one of the lucky ones you can sit down and crank out that 5-page paper due in American Government. As for the rest of us, it takes hours of dedication and planning to figure out how were going to make ourselves sit down and write that paper.

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.

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.
