Finals Suck And There Is Nothing You Can Do About It.

Finals week. The most dreadful time of the semester. It doesn’t matter if you are a freshman or a senior, finals week is terrible. Sometimes you will have professors that will let you use notes, but for the most part your finals suck!

I’m not going to write about how to survive finals, or helpful study tips. Instead, I am going to just rant about how terrible they can be. So, if you have clicked on this to learn how to survive then just click off this now, because that’s not what your going to get.

Finals are the make or break. If you don’t get a certain grade on the final, then you aren’t going to get the grade you want in the class. In my two years of college I have learned that all of the procrastinating I have done all semester has led me to this point of panic, anxiety, and awkward conversations with my professors asking what I can do to get a passing grade.

We all tell ourselves at the beginning of the semester that we won’t procrastinate and we will get an "A" in a difficult class, but then we end up going to Taco Bell at midnight instead of studying for said class.

You can deny it all you want, but you know it’s true. Unless you are a hermit that never comes out of your dorm, then you know that you procrastinate. Even if you never leave your dorm you will still be distracted by the Internet (that’s why you’re reading this article instead of studying).

Speaking of procrastinating, I should really stop writing this article now, because I have to study for my psychology final. So, have a great finals week you studious students and remember that finals suck, but it’s only a week of your life.

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.
