it’s real

Homework-

The word that makes every college student cringe

index cards-

We would all be lost without them

Jaywalk-

….Because everyone does it

“Kill me” -

A thing most college students say about 27 times a day

Leftovers-

It doesn't matter who you are, you might of hated leftovers as a child but in college leftovers are amazing

Money-

The simple fact is….no one has any

Naps-

They make the world go round

Organization-

Although it is super hard to stay organized it is so crucial in college

Parking-

9 times out of 10 it’s rare to find and always a mile away from where you need to be

Questions-

You will never be without them in college

Roommates-

Can’t live with them, can’t live without them

Skipping Classes-

…We all do it more than we’d like to admit

Textbooks-

Especially the ones that your professor tells you to get but you never actually need it

…The place you will always call home

Vacation-

The best time of the year

Weekends-

Wether you’re going home for the weekend or going out the weekends are always the best

X-Rays -

Years-

There are only 4 years in undergrad so you have to make it count!

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.

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.
