The feels of death ... a.k.a. summer school.

There are two words that students hate to hear from their adviser: summer school. Due to the fact you have changed your major more than you can count and want to graduate sooner than later, went out too many Thursday nights and bombed that class, or hit the snooze button on your cell phone more than you can count for that early class. Going to summer school feels like an upright punishment to yourself. Here is how summer school is explained by Meredith Grey.

1. When your adviser slowly mumbles the words summer school.


As you sit there and think why is this put on me...? What have I done to be punished to get maybe a month off just to go back to classes for either four or eight weeks. Is graduating early or on time really worth my summer vacation?

2. Selecting the class you want to take and your adviser says other wise.

She/he tells you to wait to take that class during the fall semester even though you cannot stand that professor's guts because you have had them before. And you start to beg your adviser that you can switch that class and rearrange your schedule because of that professor.

3. Day 1 of summer school.

Somehow you actually know that person from high school or have seen them around your school and you are hoping that you guys can be partners in class or lab together. Because you do not want to sit next to that stinky guy who never showers for that early morning class.

4. Summer school is not close to being half way over and you are not okay.

You wake up in the morning and think to yourself, "I'm fine, summer school is fine, I'm fine," as you are literally dreading getting out of bed. Then you get on social media and you see your friends Snapchats from the previous night or Instagram of tbt of you at the beach two years ago.

5. When it's halfway over.

As you wake up and realize that you are half way done and it is the best feeling of your life in this moment. You think to yourself that you have made it this far, you can make it the other half. That day you literally skip the coffee because you are halfway done with it.

6. The final test for summer school.

Seeing all that you have to study in one night before the final, and you feel like you have already failed before it began. You have forgotten how many pages of notes that you actually took in that class over that four week period.

7. Ace the final and celebrate


After endless hours of studying for the final, you ace it, give it to the professor, and run out the school. Needless to say, you end up at the closest Mexican restaurant to celebrate the end of terror and the rest of your summer break.

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.
