Maybe, homework?

6 Things That Make You Miss College And Want To Go Back, Like, Yesterday

Yes, going home for breaks is great. You get to actually sleep in, relax and, well, not do homework for once. However, there are also things that you miss, and once you start missing them you're so ready to be back. Here are 6 things that will make you realize you already miss school.

1. Friends

This one is probably the most obvious, but friends is a big one. It's especially difficult if you're from out of state because it's either a super long drive or a plane ride to see them over the break. When you go from seeing them everyday to not, it's a big switch. It's also like a separation issue.

Honestly, this gif is probably you next time you see them.

2. The "Let's Avoid Homework" Netflix Binges

Because everyone knows it's not the same when you actually HAVE time to binge Netflix. You just want to avoid homework and Netflix really just isn't that fun when you don't have something else to do.

3. Whatever Series You're Watching With Your Roommates

You just know that they'd hate you if you watched ahead... but it's so tempting. Maybe just watch ahead and don't let them know? Or facetime date it?

4. Not Having To Exercise At The Gym

You know, because the stress walk to class when you're running late is good enough. The walk that would have you sweating in 20 degree weather just doesn't exist when you're at home.

5. Homework? Maybe?

I mean at least it was something productive to do with your time? During winter break, that productive time is spent on catching up on all the sleep that you lost the semester before.

6. Basketball Games

Or whichever sporting event that you're into. The games are always just a little too small in the student section during break. You just hope your team knows you're cheering them on from home.

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.

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.
