Taking finals during your first semester at college definitely makes you wish you were back at orientation. Between the studying, sleeping, and managing to do everything else, it has become a crazy whirlwind of a month. I feel that Ross really speaks to me during finals week, so here is finals as a first year in college as told by Ross Geller.


When your final is on the last day during the last time slot and the best part, it's a presentation.

I have been blessed by this. I get to sit and twiddle my thumbs from Wednesday afternoon to Friday afternoon for a presentation in Statistics *cue tears*.

When you realize that you don't remember half of what the professor taught and you have to reteach yourself just about everything.

When you try to explain your stress and your family tells you that you should have studied during Thanksgiving break.

I just wanted to enjoy my holiday and not think about school. Please don't haunt me with these awful sayings.

When you wake up the day of your exam and totally forgot to review a whole section you know will be on the exam.

When you read an exam question and realize that it is something your professor said that they will explicitly not put on the exam.

This happened to me during a midterm and will most likely happen to me during the final. I will never understand Economics, so please don't try to teach it to me in a class that is not about Economics.

When you take your exam and realize you are leaving the worst class in the entire world and you never have to associate with that professor ever again.

When you realize you are completely done with your first semester of college and get to go home!

Woohoo! Time for winter break and celebrating the holidays!


Good luck on finals everyone! Happy studying!

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.
