12 Things You Don't Want To Hear When You Come Back From Break
Boston College

Going back to school from a break is tough. Especially after Christmas break. Technically, you should be refreshed and ready to get back to work after such a long time off, but in reality you'll probably never be ready. Going back to reality and the thought of starting work for your classes really just makes us all want to go back to bed for another week. We all know the thought process one goes through when the thought of school comes up, but hearing the following phrases can really make you think your brain is going to explode.

1. "So if you'll look here on the syllabus..."

2. "Are you ready for classes to finally start?"

3. Your roommate immediately starts complaining about anything.

4. "Everyone find a partner in the class and introduce yourself."

5. "All you did was work over break? Didn't you do anything fun?"

6. "From: the Financial Aid Office -- your bill is now available online!"

7. "I know it's only the first week, but your first assignment is due."

8. Someone on Yik Yak forgets we're all in college: "LOL, everyone hope for a snow day tomorrow!"

9. "Can you believe it's already the second semester? The year's almost over!"

10. "For this class I require three textbooks that you have to bring to every single class."

11. "Are you ready to be back? Weren't you sick of being at home?"

12. "Do you have a good schedule this semester?"

Second semester? More like, "When's spring break?"

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
