5 Reasons Why You Just Want To Head Back To School

Summer can be great. You get to see your family, high school friends are around, and the weather is warm. This fun lasts for a little until you realize there isn't that much to do or keep busy with. Your thoughts begin to travel to times at college and all the memories. It gets to the point where your family and friends are probably sick of hearing about your college friends. It's official -- you just want to be back at school. Here's why.

1. Never bored.

Whether you are cramming at the lib, going to a friend's dorm, going to Taco Bell, attending meetings on Sunday for your sorority, going to a football game, or just binge watching Netflix with the roomies you always have something going on. There are constantly events on campus happening, as well, so you never have to worry about running out of ideas.








2. Constantly surrounded by friends.

During the summer, all your friends are spread out, and FaceTime doesn't cut it at all. Up at school, you can text them and they will be there in minutes. Three months without your friends is just too much. They are the ones who ate with you, laughed with you, cried with you and took care of you at your worst; but in the end they made you your best.


3. Freedom.

Let's face it, the freedom is great. I love living with my parents, but they don't exactly let me eat pizza several nights in a row. Up at college, lying in bed all day watching rom coms is okay, staying up all night is acceptable, spontaneous road trips are necessary, and making popcorn at midnight is normal.

4. Having a routine.

Class, eat, homework, sleep, repeat. What do you do with all the spare time in the day during the summer?!

5. Food.

Don't worry, I'm not talking about the college cafeteria food. I'm talking the wonderful options of fast food that are available until 3 a.m., or the markets on campus that sell endless ramen and other types of junk food. When you're back at your home town you can't go to restaurants that late. Sometimes, you just really need a full meal in the middle of the night.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

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.
