Some of us are soaking up every last drop minute of our summer by taking advantage of the beach, the sun, and everything that comes along with it. Others of us are counting down the minutes until summer is over, walking outside daily into the heat and saying how much we hate this season. If you're a fall or winter baby, you probably know these things to be true.

1. There is no such thing as summer colors.

Everyone loves to make sure you know you seem crazy for being in all dark colors all the time, but you just love autumn and winter colors so much that the idea of bright, summer tones doesn't exist to you. Even when you buy shorts or t-shirts, they're probably black or close to it. Hey, at least those summer clothes you can layer and fit the color scheme of the colder seasons, right?

2. You never know what to wear.

Most of your wardrobe consists of pants, sweaters, and long sleeves so finding an outfit during the hot months is hard. Honestly, you try to wear your long sleeves and pant, really debating if you can survive 90 degree weather in it. An exciting outfit idea has popped into your head daily, only to realize that it isn't suitable for the heat.

3. Air Conditioning is a must.

Since you walk outside and probably complain within seconds about how warm it is, you crank the AC whenever possibly. The sweet relief of air conditioning when you walk into a building after being outside is heaven while walking into a hot building makes you cry a little inside. Your electric bill is cringe-worthy for a few months a year, but you feel like you're living in hell without it.

4. Baseball isn't your favorite sport.

Baseball games are fun and you enjoy them in their own right, but they'll never compare to one of your favorites. If you go, you definitely prefer night games when the sun isn't beating on your. Football, basketball, or hockey is probably your favorite, plus, they're way more exciting and fast paced anyways.

5. Summer insects are your worst enemy.

From misquotes biting at every inch of your body every night to bees giving you a small panic attack after they fly by. You don't want to say you wish they didn't exist, but you definitely prefer the seasons when they're not around you. Pretty much all bugs multiply during the summer and you are not a fan.

6. You Don't Know Why You Try To Look Good

The second you walk outside you're either sweating off your makeup unless you spend a ton of money to get makeup to survive the heat. Your hair is just a mess. Want to try anything other than a ponytail? Good luck, because you're going to put it up within minutes or it's going to get sweaty and/or frizzy. You usually just start to get super lazy about trying to look good and accept looking like a (literal) hot mess.

7. The back to school section excites you.

The first sign summer is coming to a close is always the Target and Walmart aisles filling with school supplies. To some, saying "I can't wait for summer to be over" is completely insane. The idea of leaving the relaxation of summer is still a little sad because it probably is less chaotic than the school year, but that's okay. The idea of getting back into school routines isn't too bad though because the calling of sweater weather and your favorite end of the year festivities outweighs any bad.

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.

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.
