Around this time of year, I join approximately a bajillion other Americans and take to the friendly skies to travel for Thanksgiving. As a senior, I’m fairly comfortable planning and making the trek that gets me from point A in Wisconsin to point B in the Washington D.C. area. However, trip after trip, I’m left with mixed feelings about flying. What do I mean by that? Well, at the moment, I’m cruisin’ at 30,000 feet and have a couple hours on my hands, so let me explain.

So, I’ve made a list of some memories I wanted to share this week. Alright, let’s get this party started!

Being from far away, I don’t get to see my family and friends from back home as often as I’d like. But fortunately, every once in a while, I’ll receive a call that someone is stopping through the Midwest. Such was the case a few weeks ago when my friend from the East Coast called to tell me she and her boyfriend would be in Madison for a weekend.
With freezing rain in the forecast and midterms every other Monday, it’s easy to get grumpy around this time of year.
As college students, we get asked, “What do you want to do with your life?” pretty often.
Midterms. Papers. Projects. Group projects. How many major assignments and exams are on your schedule this week?
