I'm The Worst College Student Ever

And it's not for the reasons you think.

I'm The Worst College Student Ever

College is all about hanging out with friends, going out to parties, staying up until dawn, and doing it all over again the next day. Believe me, I’ve had my fair share of that, but I think it’s finally time for me to throw in the towel.

I’m a junior and I’m practically 21 years old. I’m partied out. My friends are constantly asking me to go out with them, and I just don’t think I can do it anymore. Basically, I’m the worst college student ever and here are the reasons why.

I don’t like going to parties anymore.

Freshman year I distinctly remember going out four nights a week, every week. Sophomore year, I went out two nights a week. And now, I just want to curl up in my bed and watch Netflix instead of going to a frat party.

I don’t like eating after 8:00 pm.

Some college students eat dinner at 10:00 pm and that’s entirely too late to be consuming a meal. Usually, I eat dinner at 5:00 pm or 6:00 pm, giving my stomach enough time to digest the food before bed. I feel better knowing that I didn’t indulge myself in the late hours of the night.

I like going to bed early.

The keyword here is “like.” I can never actually go to bed early because every other college student around me doesn’t enjoy turning down at 10:00 pm. It’s hard to fall asleep when people are running around in the hallways, stomping on the floors above you, or loudly hanging out in your living room.

I like to be left alone.

Alone doesn’t mean lonely. I just really like being by myself. Most college students need a group of people to follow them around to the library or the dining halls, but I’m totally comfortable doing everything by myself. Independence is key.

I complete homework weeks before it’s due.

If I notice that I have a big presentation or a paper due, I start working on it weeks before the deadline. That way, I don’t stress about it the day before. It’s a bit unorthodox for the procrastinating college student, I know.

So in conclusion, I’m the worst college student ever because I’m lame and anti-social. I wasn’t always like this, but as the years go by, you start to prioritize. I really like my lame life, though. 10/10 would recommend.

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.

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.
