What College Means To Me

1.) Cutting your pizza with a plastic spoon and knife because you ran out of forks.

2.) Forgetting that you're wearing shower shoes with your skinny jeans and walking into Target that way.

3.) Waiting in the Chick fil A drive through line for 30 minutes because you don't "feel" like going in.

4.) Paying a large sum of money to your local frat boy in order to hold a puppy.

5.) Wearing the same shirt two days in a row because your Monday/Wednesday/Friday class and Tuesday/Thursday class didn't see you wear it the previous day.

6.) Writing a complaint to management because it's been six months and they still haven't gotten that encrusted band aid off the shower wall.

7.) Buying a fish because you need more "decoration" (and a friend).

8.) Wondering what that smell is.

9.) Staying up researching what type of dog to get when you graduate until 3 a.m.

10.) Crying over that one emotional scene in "Fox and the Hound" until 3 a.m.

11.) Ironing your wet clothes because the dorm dryer broke at 3 a.m.

12.) Changing majors once, twice, three times, four times, and then back to three times because the fourth time was even worse than the third time.

13.) Refraining from blocking all of the girls who post a pic with their bff and say "OHEMGEE IM GONNA MISS YOU SO MUCH" over a 2-day long fall break.

14.) Sippin your tea (or Dr. Pepper, or Coke Zero, or coffee, whatever) when your roommate has some juicy gossip.

15.) Putting the $10 your grandmother gave you in a Valentine's Day card into your bank account because you have $5 left, and that extra $10 will get you through the rest of the week.

16.) Wearing a sorority t-shirt every day because that's literally the only item of clothing you have in your closet.

17.) Going back to high school football games and thinking "I didn't know they were letting 10-year-olds into hig---WAIT THAT'S A SENIOR?".

18.) Looking at old pictures of yourself on Facebook and think "Dang. I got fat."

19.) Making up super lame, invalid, horrible excuses to appeal your parking ticket.

20.) Memorizing the names of all of your favorite meme instas, but not following them because then you'll look lame and your follower to following ratio could potentially get messed up *gasp*

21.) Buying industrial-strength ant killer because apparently dorms are also homeless ant shelters and soup kitchens.

22.) Regretting that one thing you said that one time.

23.) Trying to decide if you want to spend your $18 on makeup and a microwaveable pizza, or on a nice dinner out and a birthday card for your friend.

24.) Realizing you have 4 essays due in a span of 2 weeks but not caring because you've truly had it worse and seen it all.

25.) Being assigned to watch "Pride and Prejudice Zombies" for homework and then write your opinion about it.

26.) Laying on the floor for a while because why not.

27.) Buying an oil diffuser for the room because #healthy and also NO BUT REALLY WHAT IS THAT SMELL?

28.) Getting caught belt-singing "I Dreamed A Dream" in your room when you thought no one was out in the hallway.

29.) Arriving at the prompt time of 7:20 p.m. to see the 7:30 p.m. showing of "Hidden Figures" for extra credit, but then realizing The entire student body wants extra credit and the theater only holds an audience of one hundred people and has been full since 7:00 p.m.

30.) Having to redo your entire class schedule for next year because you literally don't have enough hours in the day to take all of the classes you have down. *flips table*

31.) Literally emailing the head of maintenance because too many squirrels jumped in the fountain outside and drowned and it's super sad.

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.

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.
