The First Month Of College As Told By 'The Big Bang Theory'
www.independent.co.uk

For most of the college students out there, they've been back at school for about a month. While it's great to be back on campus with friends, classmates, and activities, being back at school brings tests, quizzes, homework, stress, caffeine, and a lack of sleep. College is great, but it definitely has its ups and downs. While scrolling online one day, I noticed a multitude of things referencing TV show titled "The Big Bang Theory." I sat back and thought about all the wonderful references that could be made to college! So here is just a short complication of thoughts, feelings, events, and emotions that might occur during the first month of college told by "The Big Bang Theory."

*Stepped onto campus for first day of classes* "Let's do this!"

Your professor said attendance was optional.

You showed up to class during the first week and there was a pop quiz. No worries; you aced it.

But wait, there was that one time you didn't do the reading and you failed the quiz. Oops.

You put off homework until the night before it was due, but you finished and even had time to sleep before class.

You asked your professor for help because you didn't understand a concept and they looked at you like:

College started to get a little stressful, so you decided to try new activities to relieve stress. You might still be finding what's best for you.

How you answered when someone asked you what was stressful about college.

Classes started to get a little, or a lot, harder.

You didn't just have one panic attack, you had a few.

You had to pull an all-nighter. The look you gave your roommate(s) when they found you:

You finished a gigantic assignment in time for class, but professor decided to change the due date.

That moment when all you wanted to do was avoid every responsibility and obligation.

What you did and how you felt after an exhausting day.

That feeling you had after studying for hours for a test and you still don't feel good about how you did.

This thought happened around week 3.

When you warned the freshmen about college. (But in all reality, it isn't that bad.)

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.

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.
