Missing Your Friends In The Summer

We all love to go home and reunite with our high school friends after a year of college, but we always still have an empty feeling in our stomach that makes us miss our college friends.

Missing Your Friends In The Summer

Coming to college is amazing. You meet so many new people, make lifelong friends, and experience new things, much different than that of high school. The best part, most kids will say, is getting to live with all of your best friends. If you want to go to dinner or go to a concert, you don't need to call up for friend or drive over to their house, you can run down the hall and jump on their bed. The relationships you build as a result of living, eating, and breathing with all of your friends are ones that are not comparable to your high school friends, making it so hard to say goodbye for the three long months of summer. As the year comes to a close, everyone packs up their dorm rooms, says goodbye to all of their friends, and heads home. As much fun as it is to catch up with old high school friends at a party or a beach day, you know you will be checking your group chat with your best friends from school, seeing what everyone is up to. Of course there is the classic friend who will write in the chat everyday just to see what everyones up to. One of the worst parts is not being able to be as loud and goofy as you want during the summer because your roommates (your parents) don't like to stay up all night blasting music. Although we all do love the summer season, the relaxation and long summer nights with old friends, a part of us itches to get back to school with our friends. Good news is, summer always flies by; but, before we know it, will be fall again, and we will be running down the hall to wake up our best friend.

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:

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.
