The struggles and the triumphs

Halloweek as Told by GIFs

You have been meaning to buy your Halloween costumes all month. Even worse, you have been meaning to brainstorm ideas all year but never got around to it.

It is time to retrieve your costume box which has everything you could need.

But most of it has been ruined from last year's Halloweek shenanigans. 

So you consider just throwing on some animal ears and calling it good.


But you know you are better than that.

So you start getting crafty. Glitter is involved.

But you realize it's hard to tell what you are. People are going to need lots of:

You don't expect drunk people to understand your artistic genius, but that's their problem.

So you go out for night one of Halloweek!

But while you are out, the question you answer all night is:

You realize everyone is wearing animal ears or not dressed up at all. Meanwhile you're like:

The next morning you are disappointed in your peers creativity but resolve not to back down.

You get your friends on board.

But it requires that no one bails, everyone must be in sync.

But someone bails per usual.

Now you must decide: do we find a replacement or just pre game 'til we don't care what we are wearing?

The answer is obvious: 

You do not remember what happened after that. But you do remember the walk home in the morning. Old people will judge.

But you don't care! All bets are off during Halloweek.

You have two nights of experience under your belt; you give in and hit up party city.

The only problem is that nothing good is left. You have your pick of a baby egg costume or a horse costume made for two giants.

It is time to revisit the idea of animal ears. 

But you know what? You have a great night and when you discover you lost that pair of bunny ears it's just like:

Now, it is Halloween night. The main event. 



PSA:

November 1st marks the beginning to Halloweek preparation for the upcoming year. 

November 1st: You think about your week of costumes.

You made so many friends this week from having such clever costumes.

You begin to realize you are never going to be able to top those costumes.

But that's okay! You have a whole year to come up with ideas!

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.
