College Through The Eyes Of 'Master Of Disguise'

Because it is a hilarious movie that just doesn't get enough credit.

College Through The Eyes Of 'Master Of Disguise'

The movie "Master of Disguise" is hilarious, all because of Dana Carvey, of course. There are some scenes that just seem to especially stand out as a perfect way to describe the college experience. Though it's safe to say that everyone experiences college differently, there are some things that we all generally have in common. Similar to the main character, Pistachio, we are all trying to find our "true destiny", or, at least, something like that. Because of this, there are many similarities between the film and real life, even if we won't admit it.

1. When making any decision about anything.


Do you wear a tee shirt or a long sleeve shirt? Do you study accounting or youth ministry? Homework or Netflix? All questions lead to the same answer: I don't know what to do.

2. When there are visitors on campus.


Even though we just went through the same process only a few years ago, we still feel the need to mock the "young" high school students. Don't worry though, in a few years, they'll get the chance to do the same thing.

3. When someone skips class then asks to borrow your notes.

I had to wake up a 7:00 and try to stay awake during class, and you want my notes because you slept in? Not happening.

4. Taking off your makeup after any 80's themed party.

Even if you wear makeup on a daily basis, nothing compares to the amount of bright colors you cake onto your face for any 80's themed events.

5. When class is over, but the professor is still talking.

This also applies to other students that raise their hand at the last second. Please, class is over, we just want to LEAVE.

6. When you have a TON of homework to do.

Sometimes homework can just be overwhelming. So, it's nice to dream of a far away place where homework doesn't exist. Unfortunately, we eventually have to face reality. Unless....

7. When you try to act cool.


Awkwardness runs through my blood, so any attempt to play it cool ends in MAJOR embarrassment. Luckily, most people are able to get past the awkward, and even find it "adorable".

8. Making plans to get out of going to class

"If you break my leg, then you can drive me to the hospital and we both get out of class." Yes, sometimes going to class does seem that dreadful. Though we would never actually go through with it, we can dream can't we?

9. When finals week hits.

Not only have you reached a state of delusion, but you will also do anything to avoid any more studying, including roll around on the ground.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
