College goes back into effect during the worst time of the year, summer. Of course nobody wants to leave their pools and freedom when its 90 degrees out but then again, we don't actually have a choice. However, there are many more reasons than just lost of pool time and freedom when it comes to going back to school in the summer weather.

1. BO is real

You smell. I smell. My bookbag even smells. Walking fifteen minutes to class in 93 degrees weather beats my five dollar deodorant. EVERY. TIME.


2. Heat kills

You TRY to look presentable for class but as soon as you step outside that all goes down hill, fast. #Fail

3. Sweating more than a wh*re in church.

By the time you take that fifteen minute stroll to class, you can't tell whether you walked or swam. #IFeelDisgusting

4. I hope you brought those Nikes

Every girl's morning: "Oh my gosh this outfit is going to look so cute, what shoes? My choices are mom looking sneakers, workout sneakers, these sneakers are going to kill my outfit sneakers or sneakers that only give me two blisters instead of a thousand sneakers." #LaceThemUp

5. It just went from summer to winter real quick

I cannot thank my school enough for having air conditioning, honestly thank you. However, there is a difference between cooling me down and freezing me out. Seriously, I just went from sweating my a** off to now teeth chattering shivering. I've realized there will never be a happy medium. #ElsaChill

.......in 90 degree weather

6. Being Hot = Leave me alone

There is nothing worst than being extremely overheated yet have people be all up in your face. I'm sorry, but since it's so hot, stay out of the personal bubble because I'm already annoyed. #RBFIsInFullAffect

7. Trying vs School vs Heat

Honestly, I can't even tell anymore whether I'm tired from getting ready (but then instantly sweating it all away), tired from the heat and sun draining me or tired from school. I just know I'm already tired and in need of a nap.

8. Sunglasses are sent from God himself

Forgetting your sunglasses is actually worst than forgetting a pencil for class. If you're walking to class without them, just be prepared to be blinded for the journey. #IFeelBadForYou

9. Packing for class or packing for a vacation?

When you're packing everything up for the journey to class, it becomes questionable whether you're packing for that or vacation. Seriously, a must for the journey is, a water bottle, sunglasses, apartment keys, extra deodorant, sometimes an extra bra. But then for class you need the computer, notebooks, folders, pens, pencils, a sweater, thermal pants, a knitted hat, knee socks, instant hot coco. (The buildings here are another level of freezing...) In any case, just be prepared for a sweat soaked back.


10. Complain, Complain, Complain

If you're human, you should despise the heat because who enjoys being overheated, a sweated mess and miserable? From day one of school until the first day of fall and 50 degree weather, I and many others, will complain about this miserable heat. Teachers, peers, roommates, girlfriends, boyfriends, will only hear from here on out, "I'm hot", "It's so hot", "I can't take this heat anymore!" "Oh my god, make it stop", "Just leave me to die here on the burning blacktop", "You need a shower, you smell like a pile of sweaty clothes" and "Is there any day this week below 70 degrees?" #BePreparedForTheWhiners #IAmNotAshamedThatImAWhiner

......the heat of course, not the complaining.

In the end, we have to just deal with it. Stick it out guys, it'll be over soon.

Christmas tree

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!
