A Guide To Golf Party

It is the epitome of all things Providence College. It is a time where all of PC's preppiness and love for partying can unite as one; it is Golf Party. Some may buy an outfit specifically for this occasion, others may go just for the drinking, and maybe some of you just dress like this every day. And that isn't surprising if you go to PC. For freshman out there, here is a guide to golf party.

1. Dress Preppy.

We're talking Vineyard Vines and Lily Pulitzer here. There is no actual golf attire that is actually required, which I've always found weird but don't question it. I've never seen anyone in a Lily Pulitzer dress on a golf course, but it's what you do. When you think you've hit maximum preppiness, go one step further and then you're set.

2. Be prepared to wake up early.

If this were real golfing, you would have the first tee time. You literally wake up at 6 am and start pounding back drinks. I recommend you figure out a mixie, such as orange juice, before the morning so you are not left stranded drinking straight vodka before your eyes are even open. Honestly, you're probably still drunk from the night before at this point.

3. There is no golfing involved.

Hey, I had no idea there was no golfing involved before I went to PC. People ask me if the golf team or golf house has a party. I'm not even sure if Providence College has a golf team at this point. Fact of the matter, there is no actual golfing involved in golf party whatsoever.

4. It will be last minute.

There is no planning for golf party. You'll hear 100 different opinions on what day it is and what time it will start. No one actually knows the answer besides the seniors, and sometimes they don't even seem to know. There is no way you can prepare, as annoying as that is.

5. It will be over before it started.

There was once a day where people could freely roam Providence College drinking in the morning in preppy clothes without the cops instantly breaking it up. Sadly, we are not that lucky. No matter how last minute it is, the police will end it most likely before 8 a.m. The biggest day of the year, a day where some people say that came to PC for, which by the way is very concerning, is just but a few hours.

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.

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.
