The 10 Stages of Finding the Perfect Halloween Costume

Looking for the perfect Halloween costume is one of the biggest struggles out there. There are so many ideas out there that picking just one, let alone the perfect one, is a process that takes some time and effort. Not to mention creativity and a few trial and errors. 10. Picking a concept/theme. There are tons of movies, celebrities, themes, stereotypes, etc. for you to choose from so your possibilities are endless! If you have absolutely no idea where to start, try listing off your favorite celebrities, movies, tv shows, etc. because that’ll at least give you a place to start. If you pick something more general (i.e. Once Upon a Time or the seven deadly sins) then you just have to narrow down your choices and decide upon one character or idea (i.e. the Evil Queen or lust). 9. Narrowing down your choices. You may have realized that you have a ton of different costume ideas you’d love to

10 Reasons You Hate Going Out

Going out: it used to be fun, but you’re kind of over it. You don’t really like the bars, you don’t like the frats and you hate the people. So why do you still go out? The reasons are endless. Maybe you are being peer pressured (which is totally not cool). Or, maybe you are trying to forget your problems by drinking (which is even less cool). No matter what your reasons are for going out, you secretly (or openly) hate it. Here are some reasons why: 10. It Puts You Behind on Work You have so much schoolwork to do before next week but you’re pre-gaming at 8pm, going out 11pm-2am, waking up at 11am, being hungover until 4pm, pre-gaming again at 8pm and repeating it all over again. This leaves you to do work between 4pm and 8pm on Saturday and after 4pm on Sunday. So basically, you are not

An Open Letter to the College That Denied Me

Dear College That Denied Me, I’m going to walk through the process of discovering you so you can fully understand my investment. I discovered you after a short amount of research on the internet for colleges that best supported my major. I saw you had one of the best programs in the country specified for my major, and quickly fell in love with the campus through my impulsive online campus tour because my curiosity was killing me. After spending weeks on your application, writing my perfectly worded essay and pulling some strings to have as many English teachers proofread and edit my essay, I felt confident that I would have a fair chance of you accepting me. I told my family and close friends I had applied to you, and had high hopes. I saw my peers that I considered on that same academic level apply as well, and we

7 Emojis that Accurately Describe Studying

There are a variety of emotions that we all feel when studying. Sometimes you’ll be confident in yourself, sometimes you’ll be lazy, sometimes you’ll be mad because you can’t seem to grasp onto the concepts, other times you’re not even studying, etc. But if you’re anything like me, you end up sending emojis to people more than you actually study. 7. When you first start studying. You realize you have plenty of time to study and you’re confident that you’ll ace the exam you have coming up. Since you have so much time and you’re sure you’ll do well, you end up spending most of your time in conversations with friends, watching Netflix, or anything else to kill time before you actually need to start studying. 6. When you realize it’s later than you thought. You thought you had plenty of time to study, but then you realized that your time slipped away from you and now you
