The A-Z's Of Mississippi State University
Mississippi State University
Mark Twain once said, "To understand the world, you must understand a place like Mississippi."

Anybody who has even visited Mississippi State knows that Mississippi State is a unique place and has lots of special places that MSU one of a kind. Here are just twenty-six (out of very many) of those special places, events, things, and more listed from A-Z that make Starkville, Mississippi a special place and where we wanted to spend the best four (or maybe more) years of our lives.

Allen Hall

Having a class here is a right of passage.

Baseball

It's kind of a big deal.

Cowbell

Also known as, "The only perscription."

Davis Wade Stadium

Also known as "The loudest stadium," and yes we earned that title.

Egg Bowl

Veruca Salt and Mississippi State have one thing in common, we both just really want that Golden Egg.

Fraternity Row

So many memories.

Greek Bus

The place where you will see at least one person that you will recognize.

Humphrey Couselium

"Basketball is my favorite sport. I love the way they dribble up and down the court..."

Insomnia Cookies

When you cannot sleep, the logical thing is to get cookies delivered to your door, right?

Junction

The hardest place to find your friends.

KFC

Yes, we actually have one of these in Starkville.

Left Field Longue

It was the best of times until the renovations took our beloved longue away.

McCool Hall

If you haven't posted a Snapchat story of yourself studying late at night in this building then do you really go to Mississippi State?

Nine Two Nine

If you have not posted an Instagram story of you drinking coffee and studying here then do you actually go to Mississippi State?

Old Main Academic Center

The newest and nicest building at Mississippi State.

Parking Services

It's a nice feeling to know that even Nick Fitzgerald has trouble parking just like the rest of it.


Quidditch

Yes, we offer a Quidditch class for freshman. We are that cool.

Rick's Cafe

So many date parties, so many swaps, so many concerts, so much fun.

Super Bulldog Weekend

Also known as the greatest weekend of the year.

The Cotton District

The place that makes you feel like you're in Europe instead of Mississippi.

U.S. Rocks

If you haven't seen these guys perform are you even a college student?

(The) Veranda

The place we wish we could afford.

Women's Basketball

Let's give it up for these ladies!

XC

Cross country, their sport is your sport's punishment.

Youth Camps

Mississippi State not only provides an educational opportunity for college students but for elementary, middle school and high-school students as well.

Zacharias Village

It is the gem of North Zone.

If their were more letters in the alphabet I am sure Mississippi State would have a person, place or thing for that.

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?

Happy Birthday Cake

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
