If you've been in college, you have gotten extremely used to living with other people. Whether it be dorm rooms or apartment complexes, you've had to share your space. Sharing your space seems like a hassle most days and you can't wait until you have a bathroom to yourself.

When summer comes around and your roommates go home, you think it's going to be a good time, until it actually happens.

I'm going to have the entire place to do whatever I want!

No pants 24/7, I get to pick the Netflix show and I don't have to share my snacks.

There's sooo much space for all of my stuff!

Wow, I don't have to move 10 things to reach my milk from the fridge and I can leave my stuff everywhere.

It's so quiet with no one here.

​Did I think that out loud or did I actually say it?

It's actually really creepy here when three other people aren't around.

​Did I just hear something? I just heard something. Someone is definitely trying to break in.

Is this what adults who live alone feel like?

Not sure if I'll ever be able to live alone.

I wonder what my roommates are doing...

This is where you start stalking their social media accounts and judging their friends from home.

Maybe I'll just send them a little text and see if they're coming back to visit.

They will probably come back and visit soon. Home is probably way too boring. Wait, you aren't coming back until school starts?

Whatever, living alone is great!

It's no biggy, I have other friends here!

I use to talk to a girl in Econ and we bonded over our mutual struggle in the class. She'll def want to hangout.

OK... I miss them.

Eating junk food and going on spontaneous shopping trips just isn't the same.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
