That Professor You Had In College

These professors are not ones you should overlook.

What type of professor do you have? This is a list based off of pure humor and past professors. I do not mean to offend anyone, so please take this with a grain of salt.

1. The strict professor

You know the one. The one who doesn't allow food or drinks. They often are sticklers for front rowers. This professor is not one you should take lightly. You should turn your homework it on time and be sure to be a few minutes early to class because they don't appreciate tardiness.

2. The homework giver

This professor loves to give you loads of homework. Most times it's reading hundreds, maybe not that much, of pages, but you get my point. They can talk for hours about their topic and they will quiz you. This professor is also known for calling you out in class to see if you actually read those hundred pages.

3. The professor who won't even touch the $200 book you ordered

This professor will probably not even mention the book. Yes, you spent money on it, but no, you will never need it. This professor usually uses his own old notes from years past or they use what they call the Google machine.

4. The professor who will never retire

This professor will probably teach until they die. This is true because they probably love your school so dearly. They are well known on campus and if you're lucky, yours will be called "The Queen," like ours is. They may even be here so long that they get a golden star on their parking spot.

5. The chill one

This professor doesn't care that you eat yogurt or cereal in their class. You can even have your big ole cup of caffeine at your seat. They usually have one too. They don't mind that you turn your work in late because they have to grade it anyway. So, who cares?

6. The rabbit trail professor

This little guy can talk for hours. They can go on a rant that they didn't even know they could go on. This professor can talk about their dogs for days. You may be lucky to hear about his or her personal life. It is probably going to be interesting if they have two dogs.

7. The late one

This professor is always late to class. They walk in the door ten minutes after class is supposed to begin. They may even come thirty minutes into class time which the class will probably have said bump this and left by then. But yet, they expect you to be right on time.

I hope this article has given you some giggles. I also hope that you are not one of these professors or better yet, one of my professors.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

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?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
