Hot In Stillwater

12

Because last weeks article for the boys was such a hit, we bring you another one! Although some of this information may sound similar to last week's tips, that just means that it is HIGHLY important! So boys, read and follow.

Guys, have you asked yourself recently, "Why should I care what I look like?" Well, here are a few reasons that might make you stop and think: a good-looking guy in a stylish outfit can make more money, elevate his career and influence others. And, of course, it can't hurt too much in the romance department.


Shorts

Do:
Wear shorts that are a fun color. While basic colors like khakis and navy are smart to have, it is okay to go for fun colors, too. Red, blue or colors that are great if you pair them with the right thing. If you are going to wear a statement pair of shorts, then wear a basic, plain shirt.


Don’t: Wear shorts that are too short. Length is so important. If your shorts are too short, too tight or too small in any way, girls instantly put you in the “dweeb” category. In order to avoid this label, make sure those shorts are the correct length! Follow this same rule when wearing a swimsuit, too.

Shoes

Do:
Wear athletic shoes, Jack Purcell’s and Sperry’s. The key to pulling these shoes off is to make sure your outfit matches. If you wear athletic shoes, then wear athletic shorts and a t-shirt with it.  If you wear Jack Purcell’s, pick out your outfit accordingly.


Don’t: Wear flip-flops unless you are going directly to the pool. I know they are tempting because they are so easy to slip on, but unless you are going straight to the pool, opt for something other than the flip-flop. If you have to wear them, be sure your toes are presentable. Also, if your feet are tan, that will work in your favor and you can wear flip-flops more freely.

Swimwear

Do: Wear a swimsuit that fits well and is long enough. Wearing a swimsuit that is too short will put you in the same “dweeb” category talked about above! If you are not sure what exactly to look for when purchasing a swimsuit, going with a basic suit is a good idea. When in doubt, go with plain. Keeping it simple is always a good idea. Don’t do anything too rambunctious.

Don’t: Have a farmers tan. I know sometimes they are hard to avoid, but do your best. They show girls how pale you normally are and they look awkward. This rule also applies to your white feet. I realize that we are telling you to rarely wear flip- flops, so you are probably thinking “how do I avoid having white feet if I am not allowed to wear flip-flops?” Well, there isn’t really a solution to this! Just make sure that when you do go to the pool, your feet get some sun.

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?

sisters
Taylor Hooper

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.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. 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.
