You may not be a neurosurgeon, but you can definitely relate to the drama.

Syllabus Week As Told By 'Grey's Anatomy'

Syllabus week is a roller coaster of emotion. New school supplies, new classes, new professors; it can all be very overwhelming! So what better way to describe it than with the most dramatic show on television? If the characters of Grey's Anatomy were experiencing syllabus week along with you, I imagine this is how they might react.

When your professor e-mails your class before the first day, saying you might want to get an "early start" on the reading assignment.

When the only incentive to attend informational sessions is the free food.
Being more inclined to turn up on a school night because there isn't actual work yet.

When your professor hasn't posted the syllabus yet and you're worried about not being able to plan out your life.
Being bored af in class and suddenly rethinking your entire career choice.

When the bookstore cashier tells you your total and you're trying not to have a breakdown.
When you have no friends in any of your classes and can't find anyone to sit next to.

When your parents ask you, "How was your first day?"
Looking over the syllabus and already knowing that this class will ruin your life.

By the end of the week you're not sure how much longer you can keep it together.

But then you give yourself a little pep-talk and force yourself to think more positively.

And then you remember how smart and capable you are.

You've got this!

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.
