The 5 Stages One Must Go Through In Order To Be A Flow Bro
Hunter Ruediger

Having a head full of hair is definitely a satisfying feeling, and I can speak from experience because I too have had a flow. People will stop and take time out of their busy day and comment on your hair. It is a good feeling to get when that happens because when you have that good/crazy hair.

In order to get a flow, there are different stages that one must go through before the flow process is complete. The process of getting a flow is a long, tough one, but once the process is complete one won't regret anything. So, as Joel Embiid says "Trust The Process."

Stage 1 — The beginning

When someone finally decides to choose to go down the path of flow, they must know that they are in for a long journey that will have difficult twists and turns along the way. This is a decision that you will look back on and be glad you made the choice you did. But just remember that once you go for it you gotta stick to it and continue down the path no matter what.

Stage 2 — The awkward length

This will be the most difficult stage for someone. This is when one's hair is starting to get long, but not long enough to do anything with it, so it just kind of awkwardly lays there.This is where most people stop following the path and turn to cutting their hair. You just hate to see it when someone ends up cutting their hair when they were so close.

Stage 3 — Completion

If you get here then congrats you've made it. Your hair is long enough to be considered flow. To people who didn't get the chance to see you, they will be very surprised the next time they see you.

I know from experience the best part is when you see a family member or a friend that you haven't seen since you had short hair, and then you get to see their reaction to your new, improved flow. They often times will be very surprised and it will give you a good laugh to just see their face.

This is also the stage where you'll meet new "flow bros" and you'll both get excited just seeing another flow that it will give you both an instant bond.

Stage 4 — Man-bun capabilities

This is the stage where you've kept your hair down for awhile and it has continued to grow long enough to where you can get a good looking man bun. Having a man-bun is definitely exciting and you just gotta go with it and not worry what others will think (even though everyone will enjoy the sight). Your hair has reached the peak of flow.

Stage 5 — The cut that ends an era

This is the sad and very scary ending part of the path, but everything good must come to end as they say. This could be months or even years after stage 4. It is when everyone knows you for having the flow and man-bun. You've also had a lot of people asking you if you're ever going to cut the flow. This is a big decision that will be very hard to make.

I got mine cut with one of my flow bros, so we were there to make each other feel better after the fact when all of our hair was gone. Just make sure that if your hair is long enough to donate that you donate it to help others that are in need. You might regret it for a little while, but in the end, lots of people will tell you that you look better.

Having a flow is quite the journey and I personally encourage everyone to try it out. Having a flow is an experience I will never forget and one I might take again sometime in the future. Just remember that if you do indeed choose to take the journey of getting a flow then stick to it and the rewards will be endless.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
