10 Thoughts Every College Student Has Before Returning To Campus
UGA Alumni Association

As the clock ticks down to the first class of the semester, college students' are facing these annoying thoughts that keep nagging at them.

I'm just saying, I wish we could be like Phil of The Future and only go to school for like two minutes a day.

1. I hope I don't have to get too many textbooks

My spine and wallet still haven't recovered from last semester. Dear Great Textbook Genie, please don't let me have more than like two books.

2. I hope my professors are nice

There are some rude professors out there. You know the kind that just seems to hate everyone and everything. Probably because they are old and your youthful face makes them remember their own mortality.

3. I hope I can make it to all my classes in time

When you think you have the perfect schedule and then you realize you have to make it all the way across campus in 15 minutes.

4. I hope I can balance life and school

I don't want to be a hermit this year! I want to go out and live life, but if my classes take up too much of time I'm SOL.

5. Where the eff are my classes?

WHEN DID WE GET THIS BUILDING? WHAT PART OF CAMPUS ARE YOU EVEN ON? FIGHT ME GOOGLE MAPS!

6. I hope I have at least one interesting class

Boring classes make for a miserable semester.

7. How many sleepless nights will I have this time?

I like to think that I will finally conquer my constant procrastination but it hasn't happened in like the 14 years I have been in school so I'm not getting my hopes up.

8. Why am I anxious to get started?

Like I want my syllabus and everything now so I can get a head start. If I have to wait till the start of class like everyone else, I am gonna be so far behind.

9. I am dreading icebreakers

"Please stand up and say your name, major, and one interesting fact about yourself." My name is Addie, I am a Political Science/English major, and my interesting fact is that I hate this game.

10. Where did the time go?

I feel like I blinked and summer passed me by. I hate everything.

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.
