To The High School Senior Who Just Got Accepted Into A&M

In case you were wondering, a modular style dorm is the way to go.


I lived in Neely Hall and had the best of times. I never felt cramped, and thankfully my roommate and I got along 98% of the time.

College Station will slowly steal your heart, I promise. Soon, you'll be saying "howdy" un-ironically.


Use howdy in emails, in person, on Tinder... you NAME IT.

Sweet Eugene's is not the only Coffee Shop in College Station. Eat and drink locally at places like Lupa's, The Village, or Barnes and Noble Cafe.



As you find yourself craving a little snack or some coffee, remember that there are a lot of places to choose from! Also, if you go to B&N, don't forget to stop and read a few books!

As a freshman, Harry's or Shiner will be your only bars of choice. When you're of legal age, make sure to check out the Dixie Chicken, Social, 12, Logies, Obannans, The Backyard, and the REST of Northgate.


So, get ready for about 3 years of country music, sweaty people, and pregaming.

I don't care what you say, go to an Aggie Baseball Game.

Pros: you get to sit DOWN, there are bubbles, and the student section is smaller and more intimate. Don't forget your shades for "Shades on the 6th"!

College Station has the most unpredictable weather.



Even if it's the sunniest day that you've ever seen, bring an umbrella. It will rain. Your notes will be RUINED. Always be prepared. Also, it snowed during my freshman year- so there's no predicting anything here.

Whatever you do, don't walk under the Century Tree alone. The friendship branch is perfectly fine though.



College is hard enough freshman year and you don't need that bad luck to follow you the next four years.

Good luck for the next four years!

Aggieland waits for you. In the meantime, enjoy the playlists that they make.

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.

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.
