Now that I am away from home and diving into my university career I find myself being always busy. I feel like I never have time for anything that doesn't connect back to my major, don’t get me wrong I love my major and enjoy a lot of my classes, but there are things I never feel like I have time for, even though I use to love doing it. So here are a few things I miss doing now that I am in college

Reading

Before I got into college I kept up on all the popular book series and I constantly had a book with me. I still read often, but now I am always reading scripts because when you’re a theatre major the more scripts you know the better off you are. I adore reading scripts but I do miss a good novel.

Binge Watching T.V.

Who doesn’t love finding a good new series on Netflix? I remember watching entire seasons of shows in one day. Now with all the homework and rehearsal I might get time to watch one episode. I don’t even have the motivation to start new shows because I can’t make that sort of commitment. This summer I watched all of Firefly and I haven’t since finished a show.

Drawing

I may not be the best artist but I enjoyed it, I remember a lot of nights in high school staying up late working on a project. I still tend to doodle in my notebooks and on the side of my homework assignments but it isn’t the same as sitting down and taking the time to just relax and draw.

Writing

Yes, I am currently writing this article, but once again it is not exactly what I mean. I have always enjoyed creative writing; I would write pages and pages of just whatever I wanted. Now I just write articles and papers for classes, I still get ideas for stories I just don’t have time to right them down.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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:

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.
