10 Reasons Sam's Is A Childhood Staple
Christi D.

Let's face it, if you're from The Caldwells there's a pretty good chance you go to Sam's. I have vivid memories of going every Saturday morning with my dad, and getting an assortment of bagels to eat during the week. With a mini bagel for the kids, as I grew up I eventually started to get taylor ham and egg bagels (hold the cheese). And that's what I get every time I go without fail.

1. It's where you go every Saturday.

It's what we do in town.

2. You're go to is a Taylor Ham, egg, and cheese.

Need I say more?

3. You'll wait in line for 30 mins.


We all know it gets cramped and the wait is long, but it's worth it for the best around.

4. You're pretty much guaranteed to run into someone you know.

Almost every time we go we bump into friends.

5. Mini bagels as a kid.

Like bagels, but oh so much better.

6. It's the first thing you get anytime you come home.

I've called my dad from Iceland to ask him to pick me up Sam's, and then reminded him to get me at the airport. Yes I care more about a bagel then getting picked up on time.

7. Everyone knows Sam's.

My sisters and I are always asking each other if we want to go to Sam's or Starbs.

8. Everything is still affordable on a college budget.

You can get a meal (and freecoffee) for under $5.

9. The staff is actually friendly.

Thats a huge plus.

10. Because honestly, why would you go anywhere else?

I mean you wouldn't go to Manhattan Bagel now would you?

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week.

All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
