What I'll Miss About UNCW: Part 1

Who couldn't miss this campus?

What I'll Miss About UNCW: Part 1
UNCW

My last year here in college and I'm not sure I'm ready to graduate. A lot of my friends will still be here and I'll be moving onto something bigger and hopefully better. There will be new students taking my place in my favorite places around campus and old students that will also be leaving their favorite places.

1. ACE Films

First things first, I'll be missing the Association for Campus Entertainment. I joined ACE my freshman year and I haven't regretted one bit of it. From the movies that we showed to participating in "The Rocky Horror Picture Show," ACE has been there for my entire college experience.

2. Wag

Oh, Wag. I haven't experienced the Waggles (sorry to those that have), but Wag provided me with one of my first meals that seemed like home. It was also the go-to place for my suite-mates and I when we were hungry. This was long before we discovered Wag-Out.

3. Belk

Belk was my first home away from home. It was there that I met the friends that I would talk to and know for the rest of my life. It was an all-girls dorm at one point, and I still remember what room 418 looked like before I decorated it. I just hope that all of the freshmen that go through it now have good memories that they can keep forever.

4. First day of classes

The first day of classes is always kind of fun. You know, reading syllabi even if they're boring, doodling in your notebook as the teacher is going over the plagiarism policy, that kind of thing. This year, I knew at least two people in each of my classes, and I got to hang out with people I haven't seen in months.

5. Schwoodstock


I discovered this my sophomore year while I lived in the Suites. With live music, spray-painted t-shirts, and a host of different activities, Schwoodstock was one of my favorite events.

6. Dorm Life

Unlike some people, I loved living in the dorms. Every single year I met new people, and even if we didn't really hang out much by the end, there were still people that I got to talk to whenever I could. Group dinners were few and far between, and I was fortunate enough to live with one of my best friends for two years. Not only that, but I lucked out on having great suite-mates and meeting international students. UNCW is where my heart lies.

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Bob's Burgers

College is a time of gaining independence, exploring new things, and copious amounts of Netflix. If you're like me, you often find yourself laughing at the sheer ridiculousness of the situations you find yourself in. Here are ten times Bob's Burgers accurately captured college life.

Why Theater Kids Are the Greatest People Ever

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
