For seniors, scheduling classes is the easiest thing in the world. First priority, all of your hard classes are done, and you're basically just coasting through your final semesters.

For freshman it's a nightmare. You're the very last people to schedule, you're basically dirt, so you probably don't get the class times you want, or they're all full. Hello 8 a.m.!

Since it is that time of year, welcome one and all to the frenzy we call Class Scheduling.

1. Ok, I'm logged on early

Oh you thought logging on early will stop the site from crashing on you when you go to finalize your schedule? Hilarious! The site will freeze on you for a good five minutes right as you click the button.

2. I hope no classes are full

Thanks to that lag in the beginning of your session, that one class you really wanted is all full. It's offered again at 8 a.m. on a different day if you still want to take it. Lucky you...

3. Why is there a hold on my account?

Ahh yes. Your school has suddenly decided that you owe them some amount of money very urgently, and have therefore put a hold on your account so you can't schedule. Better call them quick and clear it all up.

4. FULL ON PANIC

You have to take 8 a.m. classes, you can't register for a minor course yet because the hold hasn't been lifted, and the class you wanted to take with your friends filled up before you could log on. The sky is falling! The sky is falling!

5. This semester will be hell

Nothing went right and you feel defeated. Best thing to do now is take a nap, because hey, at least you scheduled classes. Welcome to college!

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

pale girl

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
