People always ask at work on Fridays: "What do you have going on this weekend?" Well...we live in Salina, Kansas; once you're out of middle school, hanging out at the mall, going to the movies, or bowling just aren't the "hot spots" anymore. You've turned to the bars once you've reached that legal age of 21, and we all know how those nights typically go.

1. The decision on whether to stay in or go out

We all do it: tell ourselves that we're going to stay in this weekend. All week we have the intentions of staying in, until it's Saturday night and your pals blow up the group text with the plans.

2. The kick back

You can't just show up at the bar willingly sober in Salina on a Saturday night. You're bound to run into a few people you would have been better off not seeing. Whether you're getting ready with your girls and having a few drinks or over at the pals putting a few back before 10:30 p.m. or later hits, drinks before the bar are necessary. They totally save you from spending more at the bar, right?

3. The first few drinks at the bar

Okay, kick back has you feeling a little loose. Just another drink or two, and I'll be good. I'm not trying to spend a bunch of money tonight.

4. SHOTS!

Hahahahaha, you thought wrong. Your liver is loving this, and you can't just leave your friends! Netflix is always streaming your latest binge watch; drink up!

5. Let's dance! Outlaws?!

If you've ever gone to Outlaws sober, I don't believe you're human. I need copious amounts of alcohol to get myself to function like a normal Outlaws being. Drunk me loves Outlaws though, as much as I hate to admit it.

6. Panchos

Every Saturday night after 2:00 p.m. hits and all the bars close, Panchos is packed. Drunk food at it's finest, because, quite frankly, Russell's service sucks and iHop is too formal. Plus, Mexican food is the bomb.

7. Someone gets upset

Nine times out of ten one of your friends gets upset with another for something petty, and the night just kinda goes to poop. Even worse if they decide fighting is the way to make it all better.

8. Beddddddd <3

Home, sweet, home

9. Hangover central

Happy Sunday Funday consisting of not getting out of bed except for a shower, a big glass of water, and some food.

10. Hearing about all the things you did while intoxicated

Liquid courage makes you do things, pals.

Even though I vowed to stay in this weekend, I'm sure I'll see y'all Friday or Saturday.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
