I Don't Care That It's Fall, I Still HATE Pumpkin Spice Lattes, Don't @ Me

I know it's PSL season, I just don't care.

I know that the Pumpkin Spice Latte has returned to Starbucks, once again, and I know that millions of people were happy when it came back.

There is nothing wrong with the drink and there is nothing wrong in liking it. I do not like Pumpkin Spice Lattes. I am among the percentage of the population that does not care that the drink is back.

There is something about a PSL that is just unappealing to me.

The Pumpkin Spice Latte tastes exactly how you think it would and, in my opinion, that is a good thing. The latte tastes very much like pumpkin pie and coffee. This is also a great combination, just not in drink form.

The PSL tastes too much like pumpkin pie to me and that is the main reason why I do not like them. Pumpkin pie is one of my favorite fall desserts and the drink ruins it for me.

The PSL imitates the taste of pumpkin pie to the point to where when I taste it, my first thought is that I am eating pumpkin pie. Then everything goes downhill from there.

My main problem with the Pumpkin Spice Latte is the taste.

I like that it tastes like pumpkin pie, but I absolutely hate that it tastes like hot pumpkin pie.

Along with the fact that pumpkin anything should not be put in the form of a drink, it should also not be warm or hot. Pumpkin pie is served in a cooled state for a reason.

Any form of pumpkin-flavored coffee or coffee creamer is met with a strong no from me because if this. This applies to iced drinks too for the reason that drinking something that tastes like food defeats the purpose of getting a coffee in the first place.

You can keep your PSL's for fall, I'll wait for fall weather with my Cinnamon Dulché Latte and wait until the Peppermint Mocha comes back.

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.
