32 Things That Should Stay In 2017 And Never Be Brought Up Again
Instagram

So let's be honest here....2017 got REAL weird in terms of trends and news stories and life in general. Okay, to be fair, pretty much every year has trends too painful to think about. Like those hover boards a few years ago. Seemed like a great idea until they started getting blown up. So here are a list of things that I am pleading with the universe to leave in 2017 once that ball drops.

1. Dabbing

2. Fidget spinners

3. Popsockets

4. Nose hair extensions

I could not find an appropriate image for this. Okay, I REALLY did not want THAT to be on my Google search history...like we all have nose hair. I DO NOT WANT TO SEE YOURS. There could be boogies attached.

5. Fake news trolls

6. Invisible box challenge

7. Instagram food

Ya know, the food you order just so you can take a pretty picture with a strange filter to up your Instagram likes?

8. The Unicorn Frap

9. Tattoed freckles

If they're natural freckles, there is nothing cuter. But if your freckle is gonna turn into a funky looking spot on your face in a decade, no thanks.

10. Braided beards

11. Bad Instagram filters

They're not ALL bad. But the ones that make you look like some kind of demon or monster from hell are not the ones I want surrounding my pretty face.

12. Make your own slime videos

13. Messy bun hats

Or any hair hat in general, really. Flaunt what you got people, do not be ashamed!

14. Christmas decorated eyebrows

I have no desire to glue, or in any other way stick glitter and sparkly stuff that close to my eye. Plus, wouldn't it hurt coming off? Really people, what gives?

15. All other weird eyebrow trends

Making it look like you do not have any eyebrows...?

16. 'Mom Jeans' with plastic knees

I'm not gonna trouble you with a picture of this one, m'kay? Let's just agree to leave this one forever behind us.

17. Bad remakes of classic movies

18. The 'Baggy Skinny Jeans' look

I know its been a few years, but I can be hopeful right?

19. The 'Too Cool To Care' selfie

You know the one. You look to the up and to the left or right as you complain about whatever little inconvenience life has thrown at you?

20. The dancing grandma Snapchat filter

I don't wanna picture my grandma spanking herself with her purse thank you.

21. Reindeer boobs

I think that 'free the nip' was taken just a little too literally in this case.

22. Chris Christie memes

Being from New Jersey, I know what I'm talking about.

23. False eyelashes

24. Sheer and see-through clothing

Ladies, I really have absolutely no interest in seeing your underwear just because it's 'fashionable'.

25. Snapchat streak obsessions

I really do not get the obsession. Like if you go on vacation, why does someone else need to take over your account to keep the streaks up. Like just why?

26. Anything else that was really freaking weird

Believe it or not, there's wayyyyy more than this.

27. Cows that escape the nativity scene. Twice. In one night.

28. Saying 'I'm Shook' about everything

Why are you shook? Has there been an earthquake I don't know about? Calm yourself, help is on the way.

29. 2

30. 0

31. 1

32. 7

Let's be honest, how many of you knew 100 percent of the items on this list? Do you feel a little bit of shame knowing you braided your beard or glued glitter to your eyebrow? So now we're into January of 2018 and we totally have our eyes peeled for things that could POSSIBLY be worse than these painful reminders of 2017. So I say BRING IT ON 2018!

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.

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.
