2018 is filled with so many unnecessary hate, "must-have" items, and trends.

2018 is filled with so many unnecessary hate, "must-have" items, and trends. There are just so many pointless things, I can't keep up! I understand that people enjoy things and trends and that's ok, I'm not telling anyone to not enjoy them at all! With the help of my own observations, as well as my friends', I comprised a list of 25 things that are overrated in 2018.

Do you agree?

1. Snap Streaks

If you're not familiar, a Snap Streak is when you Snapchat someone back and forth every day. If someone doesn't send one back after 24 hours, your Snap Streak is gone. Is it really worth all the stress? Especially when it comes to relationships or people you're seeing, I've heard way too many times. "He's such an a**hole, he ended our 136 day Snap Streak and hasn't talked to me since." When did Snap Streaks become the basis of a relationship ?

2. Gucci Flip Flops and Belts

The red... the green... it's just so much.

3. Jean Skirts

Is this the '90s?

4. Bad People

Yes, homophobes, racists, and sexist, I'm looking at you!

5. Football

According to one person I talked to, they felt that football players' salary for just playing football wasn't fair in comparison to how much a teacher makes.

6. Vape Pens

OK, yes your waffle-scented smoke does smell good but even though you're not smoking a cigarette, I still don't want to inhale it. Everywhere I go there's a cloud of smoke. I went to the movies and someone was smoking it.

No comment.

8. Tinder

Everyone is moving on to bigger and better things... like Bumble or Coffee Meets Bagel.

9. SugarBear Sponsored Instagram Ads

Do they really work? What about Fit Tea?

10. Netflix and Chill

Can you come up with something else to do?

11. Waist Trainers

That just sounds uncomfortable. Aren't your organs in danger?

12. "Frozen"

I know it's been a few years but people are still talking about it like it's the greatest thing since sliced bread. "The Incredibles" is a much better movie.

13. "Riverdale"

While I don't agree with this, someone else had suggested it was. Probably because everyone is always talking about it, but when you're a true Bughead shipper, you can't not love the show.

14. Ghosting

Honesty is the best policy!

15. Glitter Butts

How do you function?! Imagine the mess....

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:

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.
