1. Eating Sodexo food.

For every. Single. Meal

2. When you're taking the shuttle to class and someone asks the driver to stop at the bus station.

Couldn't their roommate have driven them and not made you late to class?

3. When you found out the downstairs cafe was going away.

Upperclassmen know what I'm talking about here.

4. When you have an important paper due by midnight and the wifi stops working.

Begin freak-out in 3...2...1.

5. When Westconn chose your classes your first semester and gave you a class on Westside followed by a class on Midtown with ten minutes to get there.

Are you trying to get me a speeding ticket?

6. When you think you're about to be early for class, but then can't find parking.

...and now you're late for class.

7. Trying to cross White Street.

Risking your life to get to the other side.

8. Having a limited amount of meal swipes per week.

Some weeks you run out by Monday, some weeks you only use three.

9. When you have a class in White Hall during the spring and summer months.

Is it worth suffering heat stroke to get an education?

10. When you want East Meets West or Wholly Habaneros, but then you remember it's the weekend.

So you settle for fried food from The Grill once again.

11. When you feel like life as a Westconn student is just one big struggle...

But then you remember all the amazing times you've had there, and you wouldn't trade it for anything.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?
