The first week of college seems like a huge deal freshman year. You probably worried about every little detail from finding your classes, making sure you had the textbooks, and what you were going to wear. After you get the hang of it though, you start to care less about being super prepared and impressing your peers, and more about when you can squeeze your next nap in. By junior year, you've got it all you aren't even worried about whether you'll get a good seat, and you know spending more than 5 minutes on your is pointless because it'll sweat off anyway on the walk to campus. Here's what the first week of classes freshman year vs. junior year.

1. Packing for Move in Day

Freshman Year

Spends two weeks packing everything you own, just in case.

Junior Year

Waits until the last minute and now you're shoving everything into your suitcase

2. Saying Goodbye to Your Parents

The Feels

Junior Year

Well no need to linger, peace out mom and dad...

3. Buying Textbooks

Freshman Year:

They're on the syllabus, that means I need to buy all of them


Junior Year

$200 for one text book? Yeah, right.


4. Getting up for the first day of classes

Freshman Year

*Gets up 2 hours before your first class*

Junior Year

*Presses snooze 17 times and wakes up 20 minutes before you have to leave*

5. Getting Ready for class

Freshman Year

Need to find the perfect shade of lipgloss to match your backpack

Junior Year

Everyone's already seen you during finals week anyway

6. Walking to Class

Freshman Year

Being late on the first day might be the most embarrassing thing ever

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.
