BOWLING GREEN, OH - After relentless jokes from fellow BGSU students, Air Force cadet Tyler Jamson has become depressed due to his "invisibility"-inducing, camouflage uniform, sources say. "Whether they call me a floating head or just stare right through me as if I'm made of thin air, I just can't take it anymore," said Jamson as the jokes went right over his seemingly-levitating cranium. "Sometimes I wish I would actually disappear for good, you know?" At press time, however, Jamson told reporters details regarding of his plan moving forward to cope with the wisecracks.

"I've been seeing a therapist and she recommended I join a camouflage-wearer support group, but I've been having trouble finding one lately," Tyler added while looking defeated. "I haven't lost hope though. I also have a great support structure from my friends and family. They're always trying to help me out but sometimes I don't know if they're taking my situation seriously."

When reporters asked Jamson's friend, Matthew Perry, about the steps he's taking to support his companion, Perry had this to say: "I'm trying my best to lift his spirits. I even offered to set him up on a blind date with this cute girl I know, but I think he took the offer as some sort of sick joke."

"Oh yeah, that guy? Yeah, we're not always making jokes about camo making him invisible. [Tyler] is just really annoying so sometimes it's better if we just pretend he doesn't exist. Honestly, I don't think he actually understands how camouflage works," said fellow cadet Sara Walters.

"I just think the military doesn't consider the dangers camouflage uniforms present to the mental health of servicemembers. I mean, why can't we wear neon yellow or hot pink battle fatigues instead? That uniform could show our support for breast cancer awareness and people would finally notice me!" Jamson concluded.

Following press time, sources observed Jamson standing in bushes coming to terms with his "invisibility" as students went on with their day.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

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.

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.
