We've made it past midterms and Thanksgiving and we're almost to winter break but not before those dreaded finals. These last two weeks of the semester will push every student to the breaking point and will challenge us in more ways than ever before.


1. When you realize you haven't started the final project you've had all semester to complete.

You told yourself you would have it finished before finals came.....yet here you are.

2. Starting to study for your exams and realizing you don't remember half of the information.


Did we really learn this? Are they making this up?

3. Trying to decide whether to eat or sleep.

Sleeping and eating are taking up too much time but you can't survive without them.

4. When you finally do get food, you eat everything in sight.


Chicken, chili, and cheesecake? Sounds acceptable.

5. Your appearance is the last thing on your mind.


Did I sleep in these clothes? When did I last wash my hair? The world may never know.

6. Taking every opportunity you can to nap.

Sometimes you have to stop everything and just take a nap.

7. Walking into the first exam.


You've given yourself the pep talk that you can do anything!

8. And walking out of the last exam.


Well, that didn't go as expected.

9. Telling yourself it's OK if you fail.

Everyone works at their own pace right?

10. Realizing the semester is over

You're finally free....until the next semester starts.

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:

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.
