I left my accounting course last night and had a breakdown. No, seriously, I walked into my dorm room and starting going off about how long the class was. I love the professor and I love the class, but it is way too long!

So I came to the conclusion that I would share my rants with all of you guys.


Rants


1. The cafeteria food service the school uses gave me food poisoning several times. Let me have a kitchen!

Literally, I go shopping every week to get food for that week because I physically cannot walk back into the cafeteria because of the ineffectiveness of the food company's training plus the tastelessness of the food. I can make better salmon in my microwave for God's sake!

2. People walk way too slow

If you are walking in a large group, just... don't. I can't count how many times I had to shove my way past a large group of snails while also dodging oncoming traffic. Walk faster. Walk like Usain Bolt.

3. And they take up the whole path

Please don't take the whole path. I want to not be run-over by a group of coffee-crazed students.

4. I can't hold a decent job while being a student

Working at home may seem like a great alternative, except THERE IS NO OPPORTUNITIES FOR STUDENTS TO MAKE A DECENT WAGE! UGH!

5. Money is everything

Can I pay for this gum with a chewed piece of gum and a fleck of lint?

6. Amazon's direct advertising

I would be on Amazon, dreaming of the things that I want in the future when all of a sudden I get an advertisement for that item on Facebook. FACEBOOK! Oh my Lord I AM A STUDENT! I have a registered student account and have no money! Please get it out of my face!

7. Coffee addiction taking effectiveness away from coffee

I love coffee. I freaking love it. But. It. Does. Not. Keep. Me. Awake. Anymore.

8. Two hour classes

I'm sitting there with my thumbs up my sweatshirt screwing around with the small hole in the pocket. I'm twirling a pen. I would also be nodding and not paying attention. I would be paying attention if I was not stupid enough to sit in the front of the classroom.

9. Midterms

"Finals are scary!" NO! YOU WANNA KNOW WHAT?! Midterms are scary! You get vacation after finals, but you have class after Midterms!

10. Inconvenient extracurricular time

I work the college radio station from 3-6 am on Friday mornings. It isn't a time that I asked for because I had no choice. You gotta do what you gotta do and I respect that, but that means I have to BE THERE AFTER THANKSGIVING BECAUSE NO ONE WILL WANT TO TAKE MY SHIFT!

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:

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.
