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!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
