You Must Be Crazy If You Want To Be A Belle

It's true, it takes a special women in order to be a Belle and if that means being crazy I wouldn't want to be anything else.

You Must Be Crazy If You Want To Be A Belle
Kelsey Trimble

Why would you ever want to go to that small school across the street from the amazing University of Notre Dame? It must be annoying to only have to be a part of the large school feel when you want and have a safe haven of a castle to go to when you just want the small feel.

And don't you want to feel the pressure to actually have to look put together every time you leave your dorm? I'm sure going to class and the dining hall in pajamas is a total drag! And come on... ALL GIRLS! You have to be absolutely crazy to want to live with all of your best friends having so much fun every night, one big sorority.

What kind of college student would ever want to be in a class with less than 90 or more students and a professor that actually cares if you don't show up to class? It has to be annoying to have a teacher reach out if they notice you were upset during class, right? Or email you after you play a good game for your team. Who would ever want the feeling of having a family away from home - that's all way to personal.

That French cross is everywhere you look, why would you want such a symbolic thing all over your clothes and signs reminding you of where you are and the Sisters that worked hard to make it so you could be there?

And last, but most certainly not least...that class ring. You have to be so annoyed when you go out in public and have so many grads come up and talk to you about the amazing time they had at Saint Mary's and how they wish they could go back.

Knowing that there are Belles always there to help you must be the worst feeling to have.

The truth is you do have to be crazy to be a Belle, but I love being crazy and so should everyone else.

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!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
