2016 has had it's moments and these are definitely some of them. Trends have came and gone and every year we see some really bad ones. I beg the world that by the end of 2016 and entering 2017 that these will die off.

1. Waist Trainers

These are getting very annoying especially when every Instagram Model is trying to sell them

2. Skinny Teas

Every celebrity and famous Instagrammer is now making money by promoting teas that will reduce bloat, but it is just an expensive way to lose water weight.

3. Netflix and Chill

Find another way to have a date in 2017

4. Cultural Appropriation

Like the picture says culture is not a costume. Have respect for other cultures, and that means don't adopt them as your own if you are not that culture. A lot of celebrities are guilty of this.

5. Any Challenge

All of these mannequin challenges and other challenges like #LongHairChallenge, #GloUpChallenge, #SkinnyChallenge, etc. At first they were funny and nice to take part in but now they gotta go.

6. Dabbing

Once Grandmas, politicians, and even the peanuts guy at the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade do it then it is dead.

7. Camouflage

We can still see you

8. Cheap "Fashionable" Clothing

Yes the clothes look good on the Kim Kardashian like models, but the clothes are cheap for a reason.

9. Kermit and Arthur Memes

Another meme that were funny at the beginning but are now played out.

10. Clowns


They are scary.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
