The Last Two Weeks Of School, As Told By Michael Scott

With the last two weeks of school approaching and finals looming in the distance, college students stress levels have been through the roof. Packing up your room to go home while having to write three papers, take two more tests, and prepare for five finals while being in a coffee- and Red Bull-induced coma is basically how most of us are going to be spending this time. While you might feel like you are alone in the world and that you're going to die, believe me, sister, I feel the same way, and so does Michael Scott.

You decide to get ahead and start studying early and crack open your textbook, but don't know anything in it.

When you realize that you really aren't as prepared as you thought you were.

When you have to write a three-page paper on a topic that doesn't even relate to the class.

Your professor drops the lowest homework grade, but you didn't do five of them.

The whole entire day after you have been pulling all-nighters for a week straight.

When the professor says there will be a curve.

When you realize your first final is at 8 a.m. and it's the hardest one you have.

When your study break lasts for six hours and you now realize that you are six hours behind.

When your family calls to see how you are doing.

When you have lost all motivation.

When the university holds a free event with food and drinks for finals week.

When you realize that you haven't learned anything this semester.

When you're waiting for your professors to post your final grades.

When you pass.

Now it's summer! Go party!

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.
