Football Season Always Brings People Together
Alexandra Martin

Football season is one of the best times of the year. It is an excuse to be outside all day and cheer along with thousands of people you don't even know. I absolutely love being surrounded by people who share the same love for a team like me. I am getting goosebumps just thinking about it.

Block is one of the happiest times throughout the fall semester. You run into people you haven't seen in a long time and take a bunch of pictures. Girls will spark up a conversation in the bathroom just to tell you about the food that is at the party. Now that is an important part of the experience.

Everyone is in a good mood on game day. Well, at least at the beginning of the day. If your team ends up losing, people will still want to go out, so no worries there. At Ohio State, we sing Carmen Ohio at the end of each game no matter who won or not.

I find that my friendships are always getting better and better during football season. I love to get ready with my friends and head out for the long day ahead of us. If you're like me, you can't get ready without some music. Putting on music with friends is one way to get everyone pumped up.

Another great thing about football season is that it is an excuse to not do homework all day. Nobody likes doing homework on the weekends, especially on Saturdays. When you have something going on the whole day, this makes it a lot easier to not worry about anything but your team.

I'm extremely lucky to have my sisters in my life. I can always count on them to help me have a great weekend during football season. They are constantly introducing me to all of their friends and showing me love.

Football season is always a great way to get to know other members of the organizations you are in. Some of my organizations have already started to plan away game get-togethers. It really makes you feel at home when you can gather with the people you care about and support your favorite team.

So, make sure that you find people who make Saturday's the best they possibly can be. If you're in college, there are only going to be so many football games that you are an undergrad for. Make use of this time and spend it with the people you love, and maybe you'll even meet more amazing people too.

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.

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.
