Steal The Dorm Room That Broke The Internet

I thought I was excited to decorate my freshman dorm but boy was I wrong. Two Ole Miss freshmen, Lindy Goodson and Abby Bozeman, made their room the dorm equivalent of the Disneyland castle suite. When the girls posted their picture, many Twitter users began to hate on the picture calling the girls “extra” and saying that they would regret their decision. I, and many others, disagree with them. I am obsessed with this dorm room.

Now that I have officially decided that I want these girls to decorate my room, I need to realize that I’ll probably never meet them, but I sure can draw inspiration from the photos of their room. They told Buzzfeed that they bought the décor at places like T.J. Maxx, Marshalls, Pottery Barn and other local furniture boutiques. I’m sure I can’t be the only one lusting after this dorm room, so I am trying to find items similar to their’s to help both me and you recreate this fantasy living situation.

Tufted Headboard

This ivory tufted headboard from Wal-Mart isn't exactly the same as the Ole Miss freshmen, but it definitely gives off a similar vibe. For a little over $100, this will transform your twin XL bed into a bed fit for a princess.

White Quilt/Duvet Cover

You may think a stark white duvet can be found anywhere, but the best of the best can be found at Pottery Barn Teen. It looks classy and feels comfy. What more could you ask for?

Striped Blanket



I never thought Williams Sonoma had anything but kitchen products, so I was pleasantly surprised to find this throw blanket on their website. I'm not sure if this blanket will keep you warm, but the tassels are adorable and this will add a pop of color to your white room.

Bed Skirt

The girls' bedskirt appeared to be checkered, however, this bed skirt is a similar color. Under the bed is a great hiding place for storage, and a bed skirt covers up any evidence of a messy shoe organizer or a basket of worn-out craft supplies.

Ottoman

This ottoman makes another great place for storage. In my dorm room, I kept snacks in mine! Plus, if you're bed is high up, it will make a great stepping stool.

Monogrammed Pillow

These girls' pillows are surely custom made because after scouring the Internet, I couldn't find anything exactly like theirs. However, this pillow from Zazzle gets the job done. A monogram is sure to add a girly touch to your room!

Bulletin Board/Photo Display

Make your dorm your home by showcasing your favorite pictures on this type of board! Both of the girls each have one next to their beds as a constant reminder of their loved ones back home.

Lamp

It's practically impossible to study in a dark room, so the girls had the right idea to shine some light in their room. Their lamps are probably from T.J. Maxx or Marshall's, but it's easy to find any dupe as long as it has a gold base.

Artwork

The original photo of the room is slightly blurry, but what I can make out is what appears to be llama artwork and dock artwork behind the girls' beds. To make this your own, get a photo of your favorite animal!

Of course, the girls had many more things in their room, but these are just the staples. Now we are one step closer to becoming internet sensations with our stunning dorm rooms! Best of luck to the girls with their freshmen year!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
