10 Thoughts You Have About Parking During Syllabus Week
Tech Times: Robin Burks

Well, it's official. School is back in session and I'm sure the majority of us are only looking forward to the fact that we still have one week left to enjoy: Syllabus week. Most of us can look forward to this week, as you'll go over the syllabus the entire time. Others, like myself, begin material the very first day *round of applause for science majors*.

Not only is syllabus week, but so is the beginning of trying to find parking. I hope we can all agree that the first week of parking on campus is absolute madness. You will see people the first week of school, and never see them again until the final. These people are the ones hogging all the parking spots.

Let's reminisce on the week we just experienced and the thoughts we had while trying to find parking.


1. Why do professors need so many spaces?

2. I should've just caught the bus.

3. I could've walked and actually got here on time.

4. You did not just cut me off for this parking spot?!

5. This is hunger games, parking edition!

6. Why don't we all carpool like we used to in middle school?

7. I'm fine with getting a ticket.

8. Already 10 minutes late, they probably un-enrolled me by now.

9. Contemplates dropping out.

10. Well, maybe next semester.

Hopefully, you didn't have to wait hours to find parking or even leave hours in advance to get a spot. Maybe next semester the odds will work in our favor, but surely not today.

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.
