A Conversation With Myself About The Semester Ending

When it comes to the end of a school year, every student has mixed thoughts. Some are happy, some are sad, and some are just downright stressed. This is an example of my thoughts over the course of a few days.

1.) Omg, finals start next week.

Giphy

2.) I have to study for them or else I'm going to fail.

3.) But I also have to hang out with my friends and boyfriend before I leave.

4.) Time to make a schedule.

5.) Well, it's been one day, and I already broke the schedule.

6.) I'll just start from scratch.

Giphy

7.) I'll study for the finals in chronological order. That's a good idea.

8.) Family dinner night? I think yes. I'll start studying tomorrow.

9.) Hold up, I still have assignments to do? Oh no.

10.) Everything's fine! I promise!

11.) Shit, it's date night. But I finished my assignments, so that's a plus.

Giphy

12.) How am I supposed to go three months without cuddling?

13.) Okay, we're back. Time to study for a bit.

14.) Well now the girls wanna hang out. It's fine. I wanna see them before I leave.

15.) Three days later, and I've studied for about 20 minutes. WTF is wrong with me?

16.) This weekend is go time! I'm gonna bust out all my notes and have a study party.

Giphy

17.) Wait, party. Oh no, I have a party this weekend to go to!

18.) That's fine. It's not until nighttime.

19.) I also need to pack. And call my boss for the summer. And send out emails.

20.) I need to stop procrastinating. Maybe next semester.

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.
