What I Miss Most About My School Back Home
Omicron Delta Kappa

I was at dinner the other night with a few of my friends that came overseas with me. We somehow started talking about all the food back home that we miss. So here are just a few things I am missing:

1. The Food

I am not super unhappy with the food that we eat in the dining hall here but I do miss the amount of options we have at Western New England. And I am really missing buffalo sauce.

2. Western New England Cookie Day

If you have not had a chocolate chip cookie at Western New England, then you are not living.

3. The Campus in the Fall

Not going to lie, but when I see people posting pictures of campus at this time of year, I get a little envious. We really do have a beautiful campus.

4. The Gym

There is a gym we can use over here but it is so small that I really just do not care. I miss being able to use a lot of different machines back home.

5. My Friends/Roommates

It is sort of sad that they are all together back home without me. I miss them terribly. But at the same time, I am making new friends and going on many adventures!

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?

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.
