The Stages Of Your Friday Night As Told By New Girl

Friday nights can be anything but flawless so, who better to exemplify this than the flawed roommates of apartment 4D.

The Stages Of Your Friday Night As Told By New Girl
Hit Fix

In my honest opinion there is nothing better than a Friday night. You're done with class for the next 2 days and have just had the longest week of your life, because every week is the longest week sometimes at college. But, it seems that every Friday goes pretty much the same...

The "Pre Pre-Game" Eating

There is nothing worse than the feeling of drinking on an empty stomach. So, you have to prepare yourself by eating greasy foods that will save you later.

The "Songs To Get-Ready To" Playlist

An essential stage to getting ready to go out is putting on songs that pump you up. This way you're feelin' yourself and to achieve this level of confidence you can never go wrong with Queen B.

The Photoshoot

We are all guilty of it, so we all embrace it. It's the infamous photoshoot that takes place in front of the same wall that every Friday night where you channel your inner Kendall or Gigi and give the utter most to achieve that one insta worthy pic.

The Pre-Game

Now you whip out your Barefoot or Sutterhome rosé moscato, because you're that classy girl, and then you put your lips up to the bottle and pass it along until you're three bottles in and $20 closer to filling for college student bankruptcy (aka asking your mom).

The Pep Talk

It's at this moment that the Uber has been ordered and you realize that this is your last opportunity to run to the bathroom in. You just washed your hands and are giving yourself one last check before heading out for the night. You remind yourself that you are a strong, beautiful, young woman who doesn't need a man. But at the same time it wouldn't kill you, so go out there tonight and slay.

The Uber

There are at least 7 girls in the back of a 5 person car, heightening all of your senses making you instantly regret the outfit you're wearing, while your thighs are either stuck to the seat or your cheek is pressed up against the roof, and you're thinking like honestly what was going through your brain when you looked in the mirror?! But, now you're en route and it is far to late so now you have to suck it up.

The Goal

You're now in the frat house that is way to small for the over capacity of kids in it but, you still manage to find him. Your goal for the night. Usually someone who isn't super out of your league that you could go up and talk to at least to feel some sense of accomplishment, if things don't progress of course.

The Basement

Notorious for being the home of the DJ and the mosh pit of sweaty dancing. Here is your chance to show off the moves that you've been practicing in your room in front of the mirror when you're roommates at class, and the blinds are shut.

The Bathroom Break

You and your friends squeeze into the dirty bathroom, which is missing toilet paper as always, but you couldn't care less because you've "never had to pee so bad in your life OMG."

The Second Wind



Pretty self-explanatory.

The Tears

You have officially reached your peak drunkness and at this point pretty much anything can make you cry because you are so emotionally unstable. And it's at this point that you know that your night is slowly but surely coming to an end.

The Late Night Binge

Now that your back in the sanctuary that is your room and feel as though your life is in nothing but drunken tear soaked shambles, the only way to cope is to order the item off the menu with the highest number of calories to be delivered, for obvious reasons. If you're able to change into sweatpants before this stage, snaps for you.

The Recap

It's time to piece the night together, like where did your roommate disappear to for the 30 minutes before you left, and why is your arm bleeding. It's such a crucial step in order to really soak the glory of the night and bask in each others post-calzone inhalation state.

The Triumph

It's officially over, another Friday night. You can now pat yourself on the back because you did it, you're alive. And if your makeup is off, your over sized t-shirt is on, and phone is in its charger with no alarms set, then you truly won.

But remember to rest well because in 24 hours you'll be doing it all again!

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.

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.
