Registration Week, As Told By Michael Scott

Ah registration week, one of the most stressful weeks you'll have throughout college. Who knew The Office could be so relatable when it comes your thoughts when signing up for classes for the next semester? But hey, try not to stress too much, people usually drop classes too so be sure to keep your eyes out for any openings, even after registration week. You never know!

1. After planning your "perfect" schedule, and three back up schedules.

Because one schedule just isn't going to cut it. Your writing class you chose? Yeah that filled up during the first day, better have a back up just incase. You need your perfect schedule, a backup, a backup for the backup, and a backup for the backup for the backup.

2. Watching your classes you chose, fill up.

Why does life hate me? Why do people continue to choose MY classes. There's going to be nothing left but 8am's and Friday classes by the time I pick.

3. When someone with priority brags that they got the classes they wanted.

Stop, just stop. No one wants to hear you brag about having priority. It's completely unfair to the rest of us who have to suffer while watching every class fill up. If you're going to brag, at least offer to hold a class for us..

4. When you see only a few spots left in a class you want, and you don't register for another day.

Just hoping to see a shooting star so I can wish for one spot to be left by the time I register.. Just one spot, that's all I ask for in life.

5. When it's finally your registration day.

IT'S HERE. REGISTRATION DAY IS HERE, STAY CALM, DO NOT FREAK OUT, GRAB YOUR LAPTOP AND GET READY! No one better get in my way, the internet better not lag, and my laptop better be charged and ready to go.

6. When you FINALLY pick your classes.

Ha, I got my classes, in your face. They may or may not be my first choice but, my time is over and I have completed the difficult task of college. Now I feel like I'm on top of the world, while the freshman still have to wait another day, and get the left over classes.

7. Then you disappear for a while into your dorm room, to de-stress.

I'm emotionally drained, registration week makes me feel so exhausted. If you need me, I'll be laying in my bed for the rest of the day.. or week.. or month.. But, please don't need me.


Good luck registering!

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?

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.
