Senior Mentality Vs. Freshman Mentality

Perspective is everything.

Senior Mentality Vs. Freshman Mentality

College is known to many people as some of the best years of their lives. This time period is epitomized by maturity, mistakes, crazy stories and overall degeneracy (if you are doing it right that is). It is truly crazy how fast these four, or five years, if you decide to take the scenic route, go by. Before you know it you’re a senior of college trying to cling on to the little time you have left before you are forced to actually grow up. Ask any senior if they have one wish and they would most likely respond with “to be a freshman again." Freshman year was such a different time, one of wonderment and naivety. The world is a freshman’s oyster and most seniors wish to be in their place, where perspectives are so much different and mainly less jaded. These GIFS exemplify the differences in the mentalities of the innocent freshman versus the bitter senior.

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.
