We've all heard of senioritis, especially in high school. But when you're about to graduate from college, your feelings are all over the place. Here are some of the many emotions college seniors face every single day (and some times multiple times a day!)

1. Let me just drop out now

Even with just a semester left, you're still tempted to drop out and never look back.

2. Can I leave yet?

When you see the days are passing but it still feels like years until you get to walk across the stage.

3. Is this degree even worth it?

I mean who really needs a college degree? I could be successful with out it...

4. I am never going to see my friends ever again!!

Graduating sounds great and all but who will eat pizza with me at 3:00AM and tell me not to do stupid things. I can't leave the people who helped me survive the past four years!

5. I just want to be an actual adult all ready!

I want to be treated like a grown up and live fully on my own! I've had a great time being told what to do but I'm really over it now...

6. Wait what are responsibilities...

How does one become fiscally responsible? I'm not sure if I'm ready for this. I can tell you all about how the mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell but I don't even know how to pay taxes..

7. How many days until graduation?

When you have 3 papers and 2 tests and you want to go out with friends and also sleep for a week...but the only thing you're doing is counting down the days until you're done.

8. Can I just stay in college forever?

I'm having so much fun here! Why would anyone ever leave?

9. Where did the time go?

Um wasn't freshman year yesterday? It call happened so fast. Where exactly did the last four years go? I don't believe it.

10. What exactly am I doing with my life?

"What are your plans after graduation?" That's a GOOD question!

Four years will go by faster than you think...good luck to all you seniors out there!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
