Attention one and all: college sucks.

We invest so much time in studying, crying, having mental breakdowns and panic attacks, and then repeat.

But most of all, we drink. Like a lot.

If you're 21, you can't wait for Friday to roll around so you can flock to the nearest bar, so you can haphazardly drink your sorrows away and spend the last dollar in your pocket.

If you're not 21, you hope that someone can score you a fifth of Burnettes, and get wasted playing waterfall in your freshman dorm. Shots feel as if they're an inevitable drink that you consume at one point or another.

I asked a ton of people to pick one shot that would describe their majors, and here's what we came up with.

1. Communications-- Liquid Marijuana Shot

Contents Include: Captain Morgan, Blue Curacao, Malibu, Melon Liqueur, Pineapple Juice, and a splash of Sour Mix.

Why?

It seems easy at first, but then gets harder as you go.

2. Neuroscience-- Four Horsemen

Contents Include: Jim Beam, Jack Daniels, Johnnie Walker, and Jose Cuervo.

Why?

You think you're good, and then all of a sudden, you're dying.

3. Health Science-- Lemon Drop

Contents Include: Vodka, Lemon, Sugar

Why?

You think one is enough but then you realize it's useless until you get more.

4. Engineering-- Straight Whisky Shots

Why?

The program is hard and you need something just as hard to make up for what you're learning.

5. Social Work-- Mind Eraser

Contents Include: Vodka, Kahlua, 7-up.

Why?

Just like the name says, sometimes you need to forget the difficult things you saw that day.

6. Political Science-- Passed Out On The Bathroom Floor

Contents Include: Bacardi Rum 151, Jose Cuervo Gold, Jager, Peppermint Schnapps.

Why?

We talk and theorize about the state of our political culture so much, that sometimes we too (and we do this often) drink so much we pass out on the bathroom floor.

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.
