10 Awkward College Moments You've had at one time or another

College seems to be a place for us all to become grownups — for us all to leave behind those embarrassing elementary and middle school phases of silly bandz, pads sticking out of our back pocket, going goth for a week...all the good stuff.

And yet — YET — we seem to actually enter a new realm of embarrassing moments. That realm is called: Awkwardness.

The following ten moments are all experiences we inevitably share in our college career:

1. Giving everyone a lap-dance as you try to get to the middle seat of a full row.

2. Slipping hardcore on the street while alone so there is no friend to act as a buffer.

3. Constantly bumping into someone you've hooked up with and never talked to again

4. When you lie about where you're going one night and drunkenly post on your Snap story that you're having the time of your life. You now owe a certain someone an explanation. 

5. Thinking someone likes you because they're the first person who has been super nice to you and compliments you...and they had no idea they were leading you on.

6. A stranger waves to you on your way to class and you wave back to be nice only to realize they were waving at the person behind you.

7. There's a long line and when it's your turn to pay, suddenly you're fumbling around for your ID and you feel the hatred in people's eyes boring into your back.

8. You're walking back from some guy's/girl's dorm at 11 in the morning, sporting your full-on party-wear...and bump into literally everyone you know.

9. You check out your Snap story the morning after a lit night and CRINGE at what your drunk self decided was a good thing to post.

10. You are falling asleep in class to the point of having hypnotic jerks and entering REM sleep...and this was the day you decided to sit front row so your professor has a fantastic view of all of this.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
