Living off campus means one major thing in college, driving to class. With driving to class comes the dreaded task of finding a parking spot on campus, which is actually harder than getting the degree.

Not only do we pay $200 for a parking permit that forces us to park with the other 50,000 students, but there are tons of empty spots for the GZ...whatever permits. I mean what are those and why do they get so many empty spots when we're stuck literally stalking people to their cars to get their parking spots. I went the whole first week of class without the permit, which made the first week 3000 times worse. With the construction that is going on too, there is literally no parking anywhere.

We need more parking lots, not more dorms. I would literally rather do anything else other than park on campus at USF.

1. Trip down the stairs in the MSC

2. Walk into the wrong class on the first day

3. Never eat chocolate again

4. Give up booze for the rest of college

5. Eat kale for every meal

6. Take an ice cold shower

7. Clean my entire apartment....

8. ...including doing all my roommate's laundry

9. Throw up on my crush....more than once

10. Wear a UCF shirt for a week

11. Swim with sharks that have lasers on their heads

12. Walk across campus in heels everyday

13. Get mono....again

14. Wear crocs everyday

15. Get "No Ragrets" tattooed somewhere on my body

16. Sit in a room with all my exes

17. Drink galloons of Pumpkin Spice Latte

18. Take the SAT again

19. Sit through a 6 hour lecture

20. Eat bugs

21. Step on legos every time I get out of bed

22. Be late to class everyday

oh wait this already happens. THANKS USF PARKING

Waitlisted for a College Class? Here's What to Do!

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.

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.
