Living together through it all, you'll never be as close to anyone as your college roommate. Whether it's a wild night out, a late-night study session, or a Netflix and ice cream binge, the two of you are pretty much inseparable. Your roommate becomes your go-to for just about everything-- surprising you with your favorite snacks, telling you when it's time to shut off the tv and be productive, and, of course, picking you up when she knows you need it most. So when you head home all alone for winter break, it can be hard to readjust to life without your person just a few feet away. Here's some of the things you'll miss most about your roommate this break...

1. The Pep Talks

Your roommate knows it's best to be brutally honest. You'll miss her daily encouragement to go to the gym, to class, the library, and everything in between.

2. Cooking Together

Part of the fun of living together is being able to cook fun meals. Making your own lunch at home is just not the same.

3. Their Closet

Arguably the best thing about living with a roommate is having double the clothes! You'd be lying if you said you didn't wish you had that one top of hers this break.

4. Surprising You With Your Favorite Things

With your roommate always looking out for you, she tends to pick up your favorites while at the store. There's nothing like coming home after a long day of class to a Coke Zero already waiting for you in the fridge!

5. The No Judgment Zone

No matter how stupid it may be, your roomie is always there to listen and offer advice. You'll miss always being able to show her your outfit, vent about your day, and ask her to edit the text you're writing.

6. The Little Things

When you're living with someone in such small quarters, the smallest things really do make the biggest difference. It won't be the same without watching tv together, having her straighten that piece of hair you can't reach, talking about your days, and all your inside jokes too.

7. Your Partner In Crime

She's the first face you see every morning, and the last face you see every night. You'll miss life with your roomie and be counting down the days until the two of you are back!

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.
