You Know You Are An East Cobb "Snob" When

Growing up in East Cobb comes with a lot of pride. Even though many others associate us as snobs, we are proud of who we are. Usually our families our very economically stable, and hey who could complain about that. Don't be surprised when all the newly 16-year-olds start driving around in their brand new cars when their birthday rolls around. Also, our schools are some of the best in Georgia; Walton ranking top in the nation. When students' senior year rolls around you'll see hundreds of cars painted to make sure everyone is aware that the said student is a senior.

1. You're either a Raider or a Raider hater


Everyone attending Walton is proud to be a raider, but if you attend one of rival schools the story is a lot different. If you go to Walton, you are happy to tell everyone how great your football team is and how strong the academics are. However, if you go to Lassiter, Pope, Sprayberry, or Wheeler, you are quick to talk about how snobby and rich Walton students truly are. And as they say, "Wuck Falton".

2. You helped throw baby powder at the opening of football games


And you most likely spent your fall Friday nights at the football games. They are the highlight of your week and you wouldn't miss them for anything. Boys with painted chest spelling out your school name and girls with tutus and white converse aren't the unusual either.

3. You've been trick or treating in Indian Hills


It's the biggest neighborhood; it almost seems never ending. You could be trick or treating all night and you still wouldn't have made it to half the houses in the neighborhood.

4. In middle school you spent your free time at the avenue


The avenue was the place to hang out. Fuzzy wigs was the place to go and you could even buy the latest webkinz for a much higher than average price.

5. You've been to the Roswell Mill

If you are looking for a place to go on senior skip day, this would be the place to go!

6. You live literally 15-30 minutes from either downtown Alpharetta, downtown Atlanta, downtown Kennesaw, downtown Marietta, downtown Roswell, or downtown Woodstock

There is always somewhere to go and the drive isn't too far. You'll never run out of places to go shopping and you are probably a frequent at Brooklynn's.

7. The majority of your graduated class attends UGA or KSU


Most people say the people who didn't make it into UGA go to KSU and then transfer. But hey, I will say I am the exception! I never even wanted to go to UGA, but still GO DAWGS! And of course, HOOTY WHO?!

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.

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.
