8 Questions You Should Avoid Asking A Bride-To-Be
Corinne Foote

As my second sister's wedding is approaching next week, I have heard some funny questions coming from guests. The wedding being a "destination wedding" it allows for numerous thoughts a week before the big day. At least we can get a laugh from them. For the guest's sake, most people don't have a wedding outdoors on top of a mountain in Colorado during the peak winter season!

Where do you think I should stay after the wedding?

Hmm... maybe a hotel? Maybe your house if you're close enough? I'm not a travel agent.

What would you like as a wedding gift?

Newlyweds, just like college students really just want money. It even makes it easier for traveling purposes!

So what's the weather going to be like?

Insert meme here *Wouldn't you like to know weather boy?*.

Unless the bride or groom is a meteorologist, I don't think they can predict the weather, not even for their own wedding day.

So has *Groom's Name* seen your dress yet?!

Um...No... That's the whole point.

Would it be okay if I brought my son/daughter along? Their previous commitment got cancelled!

There are RSVPs months in advance for a reason...

Do you have exact directions to the wedding location?

Well, I already provided them on the wedding website and through multiple emails. The address is also on the invitation, but if you really need me to mail you exact coordinates, I can find time in my day to do that as well!

*Wedding Day* What time does the wedding start again?

This was on the invitation, wedding website and in the emails as well. I have many more things to worry about on my wedding day.

Could I sit next to *friend's name* at dinner? Is changing the table arrangements possible this late?

This was all prearranged months ago with the RSVP's. Please don't try and change it, there are table arrangements for a reason!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

winter

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
