Soccer Season As Told By The Office
quoteinsta.com

Soccer season lasts a long time. From the beginning of the pre-season, to the championship game, any team will surely encounter highs and lows, reasons to celebrate, obstacles to overcome, inside jokes, favorite memories and one-of-a-kind shenanigans. Luckily, the characters on from the popular TV show "The Office" encounter all of these things as well and can help relate to the rest of the world exactly how these occurrences make soccer players feel.

1. When you're exhausted and coach is trying to motivate you.

2. When a player on the other team pulls the same move on you twice.

3. When the loser of a drill gets extra fitness.

4. When friends challenge your pre-game rituals.

5. When you don't want to shake the other team's hands after the game.

6. When you try to shake the other team's hand, but they're not having it.

7. Scouting the other team like:

8. Warming up for mid-afternoon games in the summer, on turf, when the heat index rises above 100 degrees.

9. When you show up to tryouts.

10. When you know you have a fitness practice tomorrow morning.

11. You want me to run a suicide in how many seconds?

12. Congregating with your teammates after committing a card-worthy foul.

13. When you take a hard shot to the thigh in below-freezing temperatures (it's worth it for the bruise, though!


14. When your coach decides to tape the game.

15. When you haven't hit the net all practice.


16. When you see visiting players from the other team in the bathroom before the game.

17. When you see your teammates for the first time after offseason.

18. When coach says, "Get on the line."


19. When your teammate has to leave mid-game and go to the ER for a broken bone, chipped tooth, or concussion.

20. When you have pit stains after practice, but have to go out into public.

21. Every time you have to tell your friends, "I can't, I have soccer."


22. And every time you celebrate the victories won, lessons learned or friendships made playing the game you love.

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.
