The words of everyone's favorite hype video, it's tiiimmmeeeeeee! The air is crisp, our freshly printed syllabi are crisp, and football season is among us. Will Texas A&M sweep the nation? Of course we will. That is not the question at hand. The question is will we be sweeping the nation in the form of crippling shock or overwhelming victory?

Honestly, it's all up in the air at this point. Between losing to UCLA right out of the gate only to beat Nicholls State this past week, the various season outcome possibilities are endless. Here are 20 A-A-A-A-A things that cause me less stress than standing as the twelfth man this nail-biting, all-consuming, get-your-kissing-done-at-midnight-yell Fightin' Texas Aggie football season here in College Station.

1. Taking all 8 am classes.

2. Liking your crush's Instagram photo from fourteen weeks ago.

3. Facing backwards while standing in an elevator full of strangers.

4. Liking your ex's photo on Instagram from literally any amount of weeks ago.

5. Overthinking how you said “here" during your class's attendance.

6. Group projects.

7. Accidentally stepping on a service dog's tail.

8. Talking about politics with your controversial professor.

9. Consuming 5,000 calories before bed.

10. Running out of gas in the middle of University on game day.

11. Food poisoning.

12. Giving a speech to your whole class with spinach stuck in your teeth.

13. Falling down on a stranger while riding the bus standing up.

14. Saying “Howdy" to absolutely everyone you make eye contact with.

15. Over sleeping the morning of your cumulative final exam.

16. Being told you're out of dining dollars while trying to buy a meal.

17. Getting stuck in the revolving door at Evans Library.

18. Walking across the seal in Academic Plaza.

19. Getting hit by a passive aggressive biker.

20. Sprinting to class with a backpack on.


Thanks and Gig 'em everybody!

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.
