15 Fun Questions To Ask Your Date To Breathe Life Back Into A Dying Conversation

We've all been in that moment when we feel the conversation slowly turns to silence, and we've all hated the awkwardness of having your mind scramble to find anything to talk about so as to keep words coming out of your mouth.

So, next time you're unsure of what to say next on your date (or even with a new friend, co-worker, or acquaintance), try asking one of these questions. Trust me, they'll keep the conversation alive right when you thought it was dead.

1. What superpower would you have if you could choose?

2. Whose ghost would you wish would come to the world?

3. What social etiquette strikes you as odd?

4. What time period do you wish you could go to for a day?

5. What's your plan for a zombie apocalypse?

6. If you could have anything you wanted to come to you easily, would you?

7. What would you carve on your tombstone?

8. If you had just 48 hours left to live, what would you do?

9. How do you waste time?

10. What's the most useful thing you own that you're surprised isn't more common?

11. If you could have any animal as a pet, what you would pick?

12. What's the one thing you wish you could change about the world?

13. If you had to change your name, what would your new name be?

14. What would your dream job be?

15. What are your pet peeves?

With these questions, you can hopefully gain some really good insight into the other person, and have a meaningful and deep conversation that can be revelatory to you both! I hope that you enjoy using these!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
