The 10 Struggles Of Returning Back To College As Told By The Kardashians

Summer vacation has officially come to an end and you couldn't be more excited to be back on campus. No parents telling you what to do. No siblings stealing the remote, only to flip it back to their shows and interfere with your recordings of the Bachelorette. No more awkward moments of questioning from parents about your dreaded and unknown future. You've regained your freedom, space to call your own and independence. You can't wait to reunite with college friends and you definitely can't wait to be back in those dark, wet, and smelly frat party basements. There's so much that you've missed and so much to look forward to that it nearly overrides the fact that you've forgotten what your major is, what classes you're taking or even how to hold a pencil properly. The only schedule you have memorized is the university football schedule, down to the very hour of tip off. Priorities. Tis the season baby, and welcome back to school.

The ten struggles every college student faces upon returning to college as told by the Kardashians, because how relatable are they?

1. Realizing how much you actually need your mom after shrinking your favorite top in the wash, using laundry detergent instead of Cascade platinum and leaving the gas stove running all night.


2. Feeling like a freshman all over again as you Google Map your classroom building, only to continue walking circles around the building in an attempt to find the exact room number.


3. You begin to truly appreciate the value of a dollar again, as you've already blown through half of your summer earnings on food, clothing, and other miscellaneous things that you just had to have.


4. While on the topic of spending money, you can't help but convince yourself that with the little summer earnings you have left, you need to buy a new game day outfit for every game day of the season. It's not a want, it's a need.


5. Going back to your college diet, consisting of Cheerios, Uncrustables and easy mac. A grilled cheese is nearly considered a gourmet meal.


6. Remembering how truly terrible college parking is. If only teachers gave out As as frequently as the university parking services gave out tickets.


7. You couldn't be happier to be reunited with your college friends, yet as much as you hate to admit it, you miss your family. You miss your mom and her home cooked meals. You miss your dad and his humor. You miss your siblings constantly nagging you. But mostly just the home cooked meals.


8. You remember that you never return home from a night out looking the same as when you walked out the door. Your hair is so knotted that it's beginning to form dreadlocks. Your eye shadow is everywhere but your eyes. And your clothes are so sticky and sweaty that you can't decide if you should get them dry cleaned or give them to Goodwill.


9. You realize that college really is the time when you meet your future bridesmaids and your forever best friends. Your college friends become the family you miss back home. Your college friends are your shoulders to cry on, smiling faces to celebrate with, and they ultimately become you.


10. This brings you to the realization that you only have four years of this wonderful crazy ride, and before you know it you'll be set on your own into the real world. We don't ever want to grow up.


I love college.

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.
