Finals season doesn’t officially conclude when I take my last final. Oh no, Finals only truly end once I finally get all of my grades back. And you know what? Waiting is the worst part about finals week. I would much rather actually take finals than wait for my scores to come back. But I realize that not all of you might feel like this. So, I have compiled a list of the people that you will encounter after you finish your last final.

  1. The Obsessed:

You definitely know someone like this. Perhaps you are even like this. You check your email constantly to see if any grades have been posted. And I mean constantly. You check your grades so much that it feels like there was not a time that you weren’t constantly worrying about or checking your grades. Alternatively, if your final was a paper, you double check that you sent the paper to the right person at least three times a day (seriously, would it kill the professor to send a response letting you know that they received the paper???). You are a nervous wreck 24/7 and you barely sleep because of the anxiety. Don’t try to tell this person that GPA doesn’t matter.

  1. The Nonchalant:

This type of person has had enough of finals week. They are done stressing about school. The Nonchalant might say, “After all, what good will worrying do you? It’s not like you are going to worry yourself to an A.” This person might check their grades once a day and/or only when they get an email notification. Otherwise, they are looking forward to a month of doing nothing.

  1. The “WE WERE ON A BREAK”

This type of person will put off facing their grades until the following semester. Once they end their last final, they are on vacation and no force on Earth will be able to motivate them to check their grades.

  1. The “I already know what I got”

Depending on the situation, this person will either seriously annoy you or seriously depress you. If this person is bragging, unfriend them because you don’t need that type of person in your life. Alternatively, if this person looks like they are about to star in “Les Mis,” let them know that they probably fine.

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.

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.
