12 Stages Of Spring Semester, Explained Perfectly By Michael Scott

Spring semester is rough. You come back from a month off with no responsibilities and you are thrown back into the college world. Here are some of the experiences I think we can all relate to, shown by the one and only, Michael Scott.

1. When you get back to college and see all your besties that you haven't seen in a month

Its been too long and I'm just thankful I don't have to deal with my parents thinking I'm crazy for wanting Taco Bell at 2 a.m.

2. That syllabus week feeling

The first day of classes is hell on earth because you need to go to every class to find out the attendance policies and it's just no fun.

3. When your professor goes over the syllabus in five minutes and immediately starts the powerpoint

No. I did not sign up for this. I mean technically I did. Did no one tell this man about syllabus week?

4. It's two weeks into the semester and you realize you sat beside the kid that never stops talking, but it's too late to move because at this point you'll be stealing someone's unassigned assigned seat...

Sometimes I wonder how it is possible for one person to talk so much.

5. When someone sits in your unassigned assigned seat

This means war. No one's seat is safe anymore because you stole my seat now I have to steal someone else's and now 50% of the class is seatless and annoyed.

6. When you have a test on chapters 1-6 but you've only had three class days

I'm not sure if we were supposed to be doing some reading on our own time, but I thought we were in chapter two, so I'll be awake for the next 48 hours straight.

7. When someone shames you for taking too many naps

What is so wrong with being well rested? I just need to relax when I have the time.

8. After studying for 10 hours and feeling more lost than you were before

All-nighters can end one of two ways: feeling like you have mastered an entire semester course in one night, or realizing that you may have read the same three pages of your textbook the whole night.

9. When someone walks out of the test saying they "definitely made an A"

Don't be THAT guy.

10. When you're sucking up to your professor just in case you need those extra bonus points at the end of the semester

Be this guy. You never know when you're going to need extra-credit or a point here and there.

11. When you cook a full meal without burning or ruining some part of it

This is the pinnacle of adulthood. Fall semester you fumbled through eating ramen and microwaved food, but now it's time to be an adult and eat chicken and rice that didn't come pre-packaged.

12. When you realize you're going to make it through the semester

College is rough. It can get you down, but always remember that at the end of this hellish semester you'll be rewarded with summer break.

Keep on pushing through everyone.

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.
