Writer's block gets the best of us, too. So if you're tapping your desk, unsure of what to write, here's what to write about!


Favorite dishes ever.

Share with everyone what your favorite traditional dishes are. To make it more unique, talk about some of the dishes you have ate out of the state or country and compare it to where you live now. Spice up your listicle with introducing why you decided to talk about your favorite dishes and ending with popular favorites compared to yours.

Hacks for school.

Embrace your feelings for school, not in a negative way, and tell your audience how you get through your school day every day, whether it is college high school or even younger. Tell people your age how you either get everything done efficiently, or even just a funny hack that makes people's days better when they read it.

Things/people who inspire me.

Everyone wants to know the key to motivation. Tell people your key or who it is and explain why. It could be a listicle and you could list the people/things or it could just be in essay format and go on about what inspires you, how and if it continues to inspire you.

Which type of person would be which font?

I have been wanting to do something like this for a while now because it is such a wholesome topic since anyone can relate to it. Try to make the article as broad as possible so any type of person can scroll down your list and "find" themselves or who they would be. For example, if you're talking about a person who is super boring but you need them in your lives, you could say "Times New Roman."

 Articles that everyone has done.

Time to break that fourth wall. We all get writer's block. It's completely normal, but that doesn't change the fact that some articles or stories are way too repetitive so try writing a listicle on all the articles you are sick of seeing. This can actually change people's perspective on the way they write or help new writers.

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.
