Midterms As Told By A College Senior

What, like it's Hard

Midterms As Told By A College Senior
Cassidy H Cunnyngham

If you're found yourself in weeks 7 or 8 of college, you know exactly what time it is; MIDTERMS. Bless your heart, we all feel you.

It's the time of the year that we all can agree that all of our teachers have ganged up to make sure we have 3 exams that are all worth like 300 points and clearly make up like 100% of your grade and if you don't pass, you'll surely fail.

It doesn't really matter what year you are in college, midterms SUCKKK. Its the time that coffee flies off the shelves of Hyvee, WalMart, and Starbuck. All the orders are like crazy such as a Venti Double Shot iced hazelnut drink with an extra shot of espresso (bringing it to six shots) and two shots of sweeter. SAY WHAT?

People get rundown and sick, people are coughing, noses are running, and everyone has permanent bags that are NOT designer under their eyes, #GROSS.

Trust me, I've got *ALL* the experience by my senior year of college.

1. Coffee consists of espresso and espresso


2. People are like scary Halloween zombies lacking sleep and crazy hair.


3. People haven't showered in weeks


4. Nor have they had a warm meal because #AintnobodyGotTimeForThat


5. Free food is like a gift from God himself


6. We have deleted our social media accounts because #BeingProductive


7. We might need some shots to match our shots of espresso


8. We haven't changed clothes all week, but who cares


9. Our gym memberships are getting cobwebs from all our "study time"


10. We might survive yet we might not survive but thank goodness for #PostMidtermCelebrations

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.
