Why I'm Excited For 2017
Crosswalk

While we can all agree that 2016 was a pretty bad year overall (at least it felt that way). There is no sense in dwelling on the past! 2016 was an alright year overall for myself, however, as I look towards the coming year, I am so excited for what it holds (in no particular order)!

1. I'll be going into my senior year at WPI.

I feel like I just moved in Morgan Hall last year. You're telling me I'm going into my LAST year in August?!

2. I'm seeing Panic at the Disco in March.

I have listened to Panic at the Disco since the dawn of my teenage angst self. And I got awesome seats too!

3. I'm going to PAX East again (a week later!).

And I get to meet more Roosterteeth people! I went last year for one day (Sunday) but now I get to go for two days (Friday and Saturday) with my boyfriend, Nick, and other friends!

4. I'll be celebrating 4 years with my boyfriend in August.

Nick is one lucky boy. But yeah, four years this August. That's what they call mental.

5. I'll hopefully be obtaining an internship for the summer.

Time to work! And apply my education!

6. Getting to see my sister graduate high school.

I keep forgetting about this one. But yeah, if my sister (who is Daria) was speaking at graduation, above is what she would say.

7. And then go to college!

Even though I have lived out of the house for almost 3 years now, I will be a mess when she's moving out.

8. Starting work on my MQP at WPI.

Time to do science and prove I know what I'm doing!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
