My Odyssey Betchessssss!!!!

Wussup babes? Now, based on the comments sections in previous posts, you guys wanted me to write a post on the 4 types of college drinkers AND wanted my opinion on which frat party themes were the best so far in the semester. So, I have combined these two highly voted article subjects into one: the frat party experience! It's gonna be lowkey kinda longish so don't be a fake, read the whole article to the bottom, boo.

Every Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday night, my friends and I go out and have a GOOD time. We often go to premieres, concerts, squad dinners, clubbing, and other fun activities. Sometimes, when we're feeling those turnt vibes, we hit up the infamous FRAT PARTIES ON THE ROW. And by sometimes, I mean basically every weekend. 😂

The Row here at the gorgeous University of Southern California is a unique combination of thirst and flirt. You see those frat boys trolling on that former side of the spectrum (avoid them) and then, there are the ones on the latter.... Only flirt back if they're still cute when you're sober though!

I feel kinda bad, because guys can't get into fraternity parties unless they're in the fraternity throwing the party (or if you're a super bro and you have contacts who can get you on the LIST) or pay an absurd amount of money to get in, while girls can get into any party they want for free. It seems that this is one of the few times that the double standard actually benefits a young woman. Interesting.

Once you and all your girls get to the Row, in full costume according to the theme, of course, the fun begins. When I say fun, I mean parties filled with lit DJs, epic decor, and fellow decked out partygoers.

Below are the three psycho drinkers in the friend group. Whether you admit it or not, there is always at least one of these in the crew:

1. The Blackout Drunk

Swallows anything in her line of sight.... And then deals with the hangover by doing the same the next day.

2. The "Acid Reflux Victim"

This is the one who *claims* to have terrible acid reflux, but is really just a quitter. Come on, Dan.

3. The Shameless Sobergirl

The Shameless Sobergirl: "Girl, I got spin class tomorrow morning! Not gonna drink tonight!" *cute boy walks by and asks her if she wants a drink* "Well, okay, thanks!" **proceeds to dump all over Psi Phi's floor and the pledges have to clean it up the next day**

After you have your crazy group of friends together, you obvi gotta slay the costume/theme situation. Here are my five favorites of the many times my friends and I have killed the theme frat party game. We take full advantage of the opportunity to dress for the themes, because it adds an element of extra fun and excitement to the getting ready part.

1. Beta Bæ Watch


I've said it once and I'll say it again. Don't make me blow my whistle.

2. PIKE Halloween

Who doesn't want to dress up as newest Gucci art innovator Trevor Andrews' GucciGhost SS17 line? (BTW @troubleandrew liked my photo on Instagram! #Slain)

3. Delta Chi Noir


Every betch knows she kills it best in all black. My answer to this invite? HELL. YES.

4. Lambda Chi Academy

And you thought you'd never even touch your snooty private school's stupid uniform that you wore every day for 10 years again. Well, here you are! #Awk . Def got an A+ that night.

5. Soul PSIcle

SoulCycle twice in one weekend. Straight up. It's a yes from me.

If you made it to this sentence.... Congrats, you da BEST *DJ Khaled voice* No, seriously, thanks for reading my totally applicable posts every week. Share this post if you find it relatable AF! And, while you do that, pat yoself on the back for making my day, betch!


Stay tuned for more dope USC and LA goings on.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
