Happy Valentine's Day.

Poetry On Odyssey: Buzz Buzz
Katelyn Hampu

I fell in love with you when you were horribly dancing in the kitchen,
while we were on vacation with your family down at your guys’ beach house in SC.
It brought such a smile to my face.

I fell in love with you when you were making me eggs in the same space
your little dance took place.
You cared for me by cooking.

I fell in love with you when I saw you in the car,
dropping your sister off at school, while I was over on the side street.
Just a glimpse of you made me fall so hard.

I fell in love with you when you held me after you noticed I was crying,
you wiped my tear away, and you told me it was okay.
You showed me hope.

I fell in love with you when I was watching you play video games with your brother
or just simply interacting with your family.
You have no idea how much harder I fell for you in that week.
Watching you laugh and smile
at your dad’s jokes,
at the fun you were having.
I was an observer from the outside, looking in.

I fall in love with you when you tell me your ridiculous puns,
but I can’t help myself from smiling,
because they make me happy, how they remind me of you.

I fall in love with you every time you help your mom out
because it shows me what a good man you are.
It shows me what a good man I have, how I should never let you go.

I fall in love with you every time I think back to a memory
from our 3.5 year collection that just keeps piling up with more.
It’s a collection I’ll never stop collecting, how I wish our memories won’t ever stop being made.

I fall in love with you every time I look at my domo
because it was the first gift you got me (3 years back),
during our awkward stages of dating, but my, was your awkwardness irresistible.
For I once read that a guy who acts all sly isn’t a guy who’s head over heels for you.
So is he really the guy who should hold your already broken heart?
No. A man like you should.

I fall in love with you over and over again,
and this poem would turn into a story
if I continued to list them all.
And I label myself as lucky,
to say I have a man like you to inspire that and
to have a man like you to catch me in your love.

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
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.

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.

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!)
