Many of us have started college classes or will be in the next few weeks.

It's a bittersweet feeling because summer is ending, but you are ready to have another year of college under your belt. Syllabus week is probably the best week of college because it's an easy way to get acclimated to your professors, classmates, and determine how your course load will be for the rest of the semester.

If this isn't your first year of college, you already know the drill and can relate to these scenarios that Barney Stinson illustrates.

If this is your first year, this is a good guide to what to expect on your first week of college.

1. Correctly picking your seat.

Choose wisely, because now that officially your unassigned assigned seat.

2. When you see that hot guy/girl walk through the door.

And all of a sudden that class got a lot better.

3. Seeing your friends walk through the door.

You get super excited to see your friends and catch up on all your summer activities.

4. When the professor reads over the syllabus.

The professor reading over the standard information can get tiring by the second or third class of the day.

5. Introductions

Class introductions are awkward and drawn out especially when it's a bigger class.

6. Attendance.

Professor: "Attendance is mandatory and 30% of your grade."

Me:

7. Research papers and projects.

The professor will tell you many assignments, papers and projects will not be able to be done in one night, but that doesn't stop you from trying.

8. When the lecture slide goes from syllabus to chapter 1

The mood instantly changes in the room and the class just got that much painful.

9. Or sometimes, class gets out early.

You instantly feel a special connection with your professor and it feels like they really understand you as a college student.

10. When the weekend hits.

You finally made it through all your classes and know what to expect, so go out and celebrate a new year with your friends because it's going to be legen...wait for it...dary.


Whether it's your first year of college or your last, make the most of it because syllabus week is only the beginning. To all my college friends out there, have a great year!

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.

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.
