I've never been a big fan of scary movies. Each year as Halloween approaches, people get so excited about watching horror movies, and I always agree to watch some type of scary movie. I do my best to act like I'm not totally scared and laugh it off. The truth is that I just low key really don't enjoy having the living crap scared out of me. Don't get me wrong, I like Halloween, but I can do without the horror part of it.

Go ahead, call me crazy for being part of the unpopular opinion here. I'd rather pick out pumpkins and dress up on Halloween for fun.

1. When someone says, "I love scary movies," you cringe so bad. 

Why? Why do you like them? Tell me why.

2. You'd rather eat ​​beats​ ​or some nasty vegetable than be scared. 

I can think of a million other things I'd rather do.

3. The Michael Myers theme song makes you want to run for your life and fast. 

How can one song give you chills but not in a good way?

4. All of the blood in the movies makes you nauseous. 

Is it necessary to show all of the stabbing?

5. You've never understood how people can put away the popcorn while watching someone get stabbed to death. 

How are you not sick to your stomach now?

6. You get frustrated when people tell you not to be scared because it's just a movie. 

Yes, it might just be a movie, but that doesn't take away the fear. Don't tell me not to be scared.

7. When people grab you during the movie, you scream like a maniac.

Please don't grab my arm.

8. You're not ashamed of how loud you can scream. 

When you're scared, you just have to let it out.

9. Who said anything about turning the lights off? No, the lights must stay on during the movie.

You'd be insane to turn the lights off.

10. No joke, every noise makes you jump 20 feet in the air.

Did you know you could jump that high?

11. You go into ninja mode during the movie. 

You'll be ready incase someone tries to get you.

12. Someone always tried to scare you after the movie just to make you scream some more. 

Good joke. It's really not funny, but I'll laugh anyways.

13. The phrase 'afraid of your own shadow' takes on a whole new meaning because your shadow could totally be out to get you now. 

You're terrified of everything now.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

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!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
