3 Thoughts We All Have the First Week Back From Break.

Anyone in college has been there, that sweet month or so of school we have off between the fall and spring semesters. As soon as it starts to feel normal again that we're home with nothing to do, we have to go back and mentally prepare for another semester. As a college student myself I'd say I have some serious insight about how we feel when this time of the year rolls around. So here's 5 of the most common things we think about that first week back at school after winter break...

1. Why am I here?

We're all guilty of saying it. Especially in that first class back in session after winter break. Most likely we just hung around our house with nothing to do all day, so trying to figure out why we have to sit in classes all day can seriously be a hard adjustment.

2. I miss my mom's cooking.

College food sucks almost 100% of the time. So after being home for like a month eating two or three meals a day cooked by your mom it's a hard transition back to eating caf food or ramen everyday. When you compare your moms home cooked meal to some of the cardboard they try to serve in the school caf's hands down we'd all choose our moms meal.

3. I miss my bed.

Anyone in college also knows that dorm beds stink. No matter how many fluffy blankets, pillows, or mattress pads we put on they still don't compare to our own bed in our own bedroom back home. A good nights sleep is hard to come by, so of course the first week back after break we especially miss our own bed.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
