Festival Outfit Tips
Kiley Hill

Recently I just went to Firefly with my sister, and it was one of the best experiences of my life. But after wearing my outfits and seeing some of the other outfits, there are some rules and tips that should be followed:

1. Don't wear fishnets.

Yes, I know. They're cute as hell and look perfect for a music festival. BUT. They'll rip when you sit down on the grass and a stick gets caught on them or on a bench where the wood tears them. Then, they're not so cute anymore and you kind of just look like you don't know what you're doing. Also, if you're outside ALL day, those tan lines? Honey...

2. Body jewels are a must, but only with the right glue

You'll be sweating in the 90-degree sunny sky weather, so make sure you spend the right money on GOOD glue rather than buy cheap jewels that just stick on and will be falling off by the time it hits the afternoon.

3. Frayed shorts, yes. Booty cheeks, no.

It's a very big trend to show off what you got at festivals, but sometimes it's too much. The number of butts I saw this past weekend could have turned into a very fun drinking game. There are ways to style yourself if you wanna show off a little bit of something, but be careful how you do it because it can look trashy. And, well, frayed shorts aren't the way to show it off.

4. Flare pants, but only if hemmed.

Flare pants are STUNNING and so flattering (yes, even on us short girls). But if they're too long, people will be stepping on them and tearing them. Dirt will be getting all up in that. It's just not the look you want so just make sure they fit properly before plopping them in your suitcase!

5. Closed-toe shoes, nothing else.

I wore flip flops one day because I absolutely hate wearing socks, but, oh boy. My one toe got scratched by a stick and was bleeding all day! Not to mention, my feet were ready to kick me in the face out of discomfort. Closed-toe shoes are the most comfortable and most practical. And if you think sandals are cuter, trust me, my sister was stunting on everyone with her Nikes all weekend long.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
