Tinder Dates That Should Be Forgotten

Tinder is a popular app you can download on your smartphone or use on your computer. With tinder the directions are simple, your swipe right for those you like, left for those you don't. Like most college students, I've tried out tinder, and I found out it was not for me. For the most part, I never met the guys I matched with, we make plans but it falls through; which is fine with me because you never know how they'll act in person. I asked a few friends for some stories, and these were the ones I found the funniest.

1. Sharkboy

"This was probably the most awkward and uncomfortable date I've been on in my entire life. Kevin was a guy I matched with right before I moved to Tampa. He was very sweet over text, maybe saying something awkward on occasion, but nothing too weird. We'd hung out once before I let him come to my apartment for our second hangout. Big mistake number one. I went to my door to let him in and he was acting very anxious. He bounded through my door went, "Sweet, nice place. Wheres your room?" I was taken aback but showed him where it was. He opened the door and went into my room. He pulled out a bag from CVS and pulled something out of it. It was a box of condoms, he then goes "So are we going to do this or what?"
I didn't know what to say. I stood there for about 30 seconds before spitting out a response. I asked him what he thought was going to happen that night, and his exact words were, "Aren't we f****ing?"

See any normal girl would kick him out at that moment. But in the words of my best friend, I'm an idiot. Instead I explained that is NOT what we were doing and let him stay. Bad mistake number two. He apologized and put the box in his pocket. After that we watched a hockey game. At some point in the game, he decided it would be a good time to kiss me. I honestly saw him as a friend after our first meeting. I pushed him back and laughed uncomfortably and said something like, haha lets watch the game, so I didn't seem rude. After that, I told him I would be back and went to go to the kitchen to get a drink. I instead called my friend and told her it was an emergency and I needed her to save me from an awful date.


She drove over and walked straight through the front door. She said an excuse like, " I'm going on a date and need you to do my makeup." I looked at Kevin and told him I would be back soon. Honestly, I can't tell you why I didn't just tell him to leave. I think I just didn't want to hurt his feelings. But even though we spent about an hour in the bathroom, he didn't leave. My friend actually did have plans so she eventually had to leave. I went back to my room and sat next to Kevin. We sat in silence for about maybe 20 minutes before he tried talking to me. He asked me a simple question, I think it was what my favorite thing to do was, I said taking pictures. His response, "I play tetris competitively." I was taken aback by that but played it off by saying my mom liked that game. Another five minutes of silence. Out of no where he states, "I ate a shark once." Hence the name my friends call him, Sharkboy."


2. Dracula

"Since I moved to Tampa, I've been on maybe 4 tinder dates. Drake was a strange dude, I'll be the first to admit it. But he was pretty cute and was very nice. I had him meet my friend and I at the library to study with us. He was pretty funny, a little awkward, but funny. After my friend and I finished our homework, we invited him to watch the Bachelor with us. Once we got to my friends dorm, we sat in the living room and turned on the show.


While watching it, he kept trying to hold my hand so I finally let him, it was an innocent gesture. Eventually, Victoria got tired so I told him he could come to my place to watch TV with my roommate and I . We ended up turning on Zootopia (best movie ever). About halfway through it my roommate decided to go to bed and I was alone with Drake.


Not even 30 seconds after my roommate went to bed, he attacked my face. He went to kiss me and I allowed him to at first. But then all he did was bite my lips. Not kiss me, bite me. When I say he made my lip literally bleed and bruise, I mean it. My lips were so swollen, I looked like Kylie Jenner. I stopped him not even 3 minutes later and told him I was tired and wanted to sleep. So, I made him leave.


This wasn't one of the worst dates I've been on, but it wasn't a very great one. After telling my friends the following day, they made up the nickname Dracula. As you can see, my friends are a little mean, but I won't lie. It was pretty funny."

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!

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.
