5 Reasons Why College Relationships Are The Best
PixaBay

Regardless of if you are long distance or dating someone from your college, your relationship in college will give you inevitable life lessons.

1. You Learn About Trust.

If your significant other is going out on a Saturday night, you learn to trust them...unless they do bad things on Saturday nights.

2. You Need Comfort.

After that overwhelming history exam that you just bombed and the hours of homework ahead, you need someone there to tell you that it will all be okay.

3. You Need Guidance.

You are still figuring out who you are and what you want to be. You need someone to hold your hand and help you make these decisions throughout your college career.

4. You Will Try New Things.

Your SO will help you adventure off and explore. If they are involved in groups and clubs, you will be encouraged to also be a part of different groups.

5. You Will Have A Best Friend.

Best friends are meant to be there through thick and thin. College is the time in your life when you really need a shoulder to cry on and a hand to hold.

Luckily, I currently have this. Yes, it is long distance, but that makes it even better. Absence makes the heart grow fonder for sure!

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
