8 Best College Movies Of All Time
Sky

Before you come to college you think of it as sex, drugs and fraternities. But everything you really learned about college was from movies. Those weird, crazy, romantic movies that were how you wished college would be like. However, college may not always be like the movies, but you can make it that way by just making every day in college count. Of course class comes first, but you are only here once, so live it up like the movies do. Here are some of the greatest college movies of all times.

1. "American Pie" Series

This is by far my favorite of them all. It is about how awkward sex and life is when you are young. If you saw this movie a long time ago, you would not be able to appreciate it until you have been through those awkward ages or are still going through them. "American Pie" includes "Beta House," "Book of Love" and more.

2. National Lampoon's "Animal House"

An all time classic college movie since 1978. It is about joining the rowdy fraternity of Delta Tau Chi and these guys experience in it. The journey includes girls, togas, parades and more that one has to watch to understand. This decade was so much different than ours.

3. "Revenge of the Nerds"

The sporty guys cant get everything. These fraternity nerds have no house anymore and are stuck with nowhere to live. They need to unite together and get revenge on all those who have done them wrong. See what they do in "Revenge of the Nerds."

4. "Road Trip" Series

This movie is now on Netflix. It is about four college student who get into a crazy situation, making them have to take a road trip in order to fix it. During this road trip things always go wrong and get insane. These movies make you want to take road trips with your best pals and stop worrying about your girlfriends at home.

5. "Old School"

What happens when a bunch of old guys decide to recapture their glory days by starting a fraternity? Well streaking down the quad is one of them. It gets crazy with Will Ferrell, Vince Vaughn, Luke Wilson and more reliving their college days. It will make you never want to bring your parents to visit.

6. National Lampoon's "Van Wilder"

The big man on campus that all the guys want to be friends with and all the girls want. He thinks he is the best and that he can charm any girl. But there is always that one girl that he just can't have, but always really wants. Do you think he gets the girl or not? Watch this college classic that you are sure to love.

7. "22 Jump Street"

Channing Tatum and Jonah Hill are back at it again and are now undercover in college. The parties, the frats and the people are so much crazier to navigate. It is a really good representation of what college life is really like.

8. "How High"

What happens when pot heads magically ace their college exams and wind up at Harvard? They have to learn the ways of an Ivy League and how to keep the grade. It teaches you that college is really for everyone and if you try real hard anyone can really succeed.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant

There's always chaos in the restaurant business.

10 Signs You Work In A Restaurant
Brisanis

Working in the restaurant industry is possibly the most fundamentally challenging occupation I have ever experienced when it comes to hospitality and customer service. When you go to a five-star restaurant you expect the time of your life, a two hour getaway, a walk through another time period (rustic Italy, France, Spain, etc), or simply a honeymoon undergo. What you don't see are the behind the scenes scut work: carrying trays, polishing glassware and silverware, kitchen chaos, the list is endless. Now, I'm not saying being a host, server, or bartender is the worst thing in the whole wide world, there are definitely worse things. But the fact of the matter is that it isn't always sunshine and rainbows. In the two years that I have spent in restaurant and customer service, I have spoken my share of expletives, yelled at kitchen staff, and dealt with not-so-happy guests. It isn't easy to keep a bright and shiny smile on your face when all you want to do is choke every person who walks near you. Anyone who has spent even two weeks working in a restaurant understands the rigor and stress that comes with it. Restaurant culture is a tiny world in and of itself that operates on its own principles and creates its own society. It even has its own language. The sayings "runner", "corner", and "on a bus" wouldn't make sense to anyone otherwise. My mother and I both work in a restaurant and the best advice I can give someone going out to eat is to treat us like people. Yes...believe it or not we are people, people. Say "please" and "thank you", or stack your cleared plates before a busser gets to the table. Trust me, the gesture goes a lot farther than you may think.

So, if you work in a restaurant, you can relate with the following points. If not, check out how the brain of a restaurant service (or any customer service) worker actually works. See if you can identify any crazy weird habits your friends have a tendency to partake in.

One of the scariest things we will ever face in our life is going to college. Many of us move away to a new town, join new organizations, and make new friends. We are expected to study, have a social life, relationships, maybe work, and be healthy. It seems pretty easy to do, and in high school all we wanted to do was graduate and move on to this next chapter of our lives. If you are in high school, here are some things that you can learn from before you get to college. If you have already been through your freshman year of college, hopefully you can relate to the things I have learned in college.
