Halloweekend is upon us all, and whether it's a two-day or five-day event, the stress is real. Between the costumes and candy, it's easy to be overwhelmed. Are you going as a sweet angel or maybe a devil? With the ability to be whoever you want to be, the possibilities are endless. So here's to a Halloweekend to remember... or not.


1. Realizing that Halloween is only a week away.

Midterms are done and all of a sudden you realize that Halloween is only a week again! You haven't thought of any costume ideas, and for some reason you've already lost all the theme clothing you brought with you. Time to start panicking!


2. Spending more time Amazon Prime-ing yourself things you probably don't need over studying

You'll eventually use all that body glitter, not to mention that 12-pack of every animal ears that you could think of, and for one-day shipping, it's totally worth it! Your parents may call asking if your account got hacked, but we know it's for a good cause.


3. Having meetings to make sure that everyone knows what the group costume is

Nothing says true friendship than like a mandatory meeting to discuss costumes. I mean are we matching or not? It's a Halloween essential!



4. Calling your parents to have them send you something last minute

Remember that cute costume you wore to the Halloween party senior year? Well, imagine how good it would look at your first college Halloween. Doesn't matter that it's almost midnight, I'm sure your parents would be more than happy to go through all your old clothes to find it!


5. The internal struggle of doing an individual costume or matching with a friend

You and your best friend would make two hot bunnies, but what about that cheetah costume you have?! Good thing there enough days to do both!


6. Figuring out what frats to go to

With so many options, it's hard to choose. You can try to hit them all, but you should probably rank your preferences in order. Do you stick with what you know best, or venture to a new one? If there's any time to try something new, it's Halloween!


7. Participating in the Halloween diet

Candy, candy, and more candy. Thanks for the care package mom and dad!


8. Making it through the school week

Essay due on Monday and a Spanish test on Tuesday, but all you're thinking of is what day to wear what costume. Priorities.


9. Getting ready to go out

Classes are done and you haven't slept enough, but there's no time for rest. There is fake blood to be applied and pictures to take. Is it too early to start the pregame at 8?


10. Dancing the night away with your best friends

Halloween is a magical time where you can be whoever you want and get away with things you might not have been able to do before. But we all know that the best memories are usually spent on elevated surfaces with your best friends.


11. Getting ready to do it all again next year

You're overtired and probably a little sick. You had some good nights and probably a bad one too, but you always know there's next year and you can't wait to do it all over again!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
