The Morning After: Mountain Weekend Edition

8:00 a.m.: Why are people waking up, and why does every part of my body hurt?

8:05 a.m.: I need water.

8:06 a.m.: That was not water.

8:15 a.m.: I really should help clean.

8:16 a.m.: I’m really cold and unhappy with the situation at hand.

8:20 a.m.: I don’t think I completely slept off last night.

8:21 a.m.: Standing up has proven that I most definitely have not recovered from yesterday.

8:25 a.m.: The floor is sticky; the counter is sticky… I am sticky.

8:55 a.m.: We’ve done it: The house is clean enough to get the security deposit back.

9:00 a.m.: I want food, a warm shower, and my bed. All of those things seem so out of reach.

9:15 a.m.: Let’s leave before we are the last ones here.

9:20 a.m.: I need sunglasses and sleep right now.

11:00 a.m.: I was really hoping I would wake up and be back on campus.

11:20 a.m.: I might cry from excitement for food.

11:40 a.m.: I just want to be out of this car and away from everyone I’m with.

Noon: Wait, I am sad to drop people off… this weekend was lit.

12:10 p.m.: My face looks rather unfortunate and everything smells like rage.

12:30 p.m.: I have now showered, and all I want to do is sleep…but, no, I have things to do.

3:00 p.m.: I have done nothing productive.

7:00 p.m.: It’s no longer an option. I need to do things.

11:00 p.m.: Even though I hate my life a little bit, I conquered this weekend.

11:05 p.m.: It’s official. I am the Supreme Overlord of Mountain Weekend.

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.
