What We're All Looking Forward To This November

Halloween is over, Christmas isn't here yet... so WHY love November?

What We're All Looking Forward To This November
Meet Me On The Balcony

November is FINALLY here and we have multiple reasons to be "thankful" for that!

Football Season:

The one season almost every girlfriend is forced to enjoy and practically every father makes sure their family enjoys!

Daylight Savings:

Not too excited about the dark, but definitely anticipating that extra hour of sleep.

Election Day:

I think we could all agree that this election is the biggest joke of this year. Seriously, this election has been nothing but a game of “would you rather?” and I cannot wait until it’s all over! That being said, we will finally have an answer for the number one question that we continue to ask: who will be the next president of the united states!? Obama, we will miss you dearly. Honestly. This year will be the first time voting for many citizens (including myself)! Make surety exercise your right to vote on November 8th, 2016!

Thanksgiving Break:

I’m just excited to actually have a real break.

The Thanksgiving Day Parade:

Nothing makes Thanksgiving more official than Macy’s annual Thanksgiving Day Parade. Between the performances, blow up balloons, sales discounts and everything else… it sure does know how to start off someone's Thanksgiving morning!

Thanksgiving:

Thanksgiving is anticipated every year for plenty of reasons. Family gatherings are always the best… but food is obviously way better.

Friends-Giving:

After all the hard work we put into classes, organizations, making new friends etc. going home to finally reunite with all your friends who also went off to school (or stayed home without you) is one of the best feelings ever.

“A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving”:

This is obviously a classic that cannot be forgotten.

Black Friday:

Such a bittersweet time of the year. This day marks the beginning of the Christmas sprit and the end to a savings account! It's so bittersweet that it deserves not one gif, but two.

Cyber Monday:

Basically another day dedicated specifically for us to spend money we do not have (except this time we do not have to wait in line to do so). Plus, we get to experience the excitement almost nothing else could relate to: coming home to a package you've been dying to receive!

Christmas Slowly Approaching:

As Christmas shopping begins, so does the decorating! I refuse to let everyone who decorated for Christmas right after Halloween suck the fun out of my decorating! Putting a tree up in my dorm is going to make me and my roommate's home away from home that much better! Not to mention this means we finally get to start planning for everything Christmas related.

Fall Semester Coming to an End:

Does this even need an explanation?

Early Gift for Your Sanity:

Here’s a list of all the Original TV shows, sitcoms, and movies Netflix will be releasing this November!

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?

10 Reasons Why Sisters Are The Best

Who could be a better friend than your own sister?

sisters

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
