What were we thinking?!

Ah, 2007. The year that we were all guilty of supporting at least one of these disastrous fashion trends.

1. Tiny vests

The perfect addition to any outfit.

2. Gauchos


Looking back, you can't deny these were one of the comfiest pants out there.

3. Writing on your Converse

In the long run it probably wasn't the best idea to write on shoes that your parents probably bought for you, but at least you looked cool!

4. Rolled up Soffee shorts

Nothing like rolling 'em up two or three times too many.

5. Skirts and cropped leggings

Name a more iconic duo.

6. Oversized purses

Large enough to fit your 1st generation iPhone and whatever else you absolutely needed with you.

7. Clear bra straps

Just because they were "clear" doesn't mean you couldn't see them.

8. Sweatpants with words across the butt

Side note: just because Kylie Jenner is bringing back the Juicy sweats doesn't mean we have to take part in the rebirth of this trend.

9. Ed Hardy

Whether it was Ed Hardy shirts, hats, hoodies, purses, or even shoes, this graphic, tattoo-like apparel needed to end. Real quick.

10. Footless tights

The perfect way to add a little bit of warmth to your look without committing to full on tights

11. Thick eyeliner

Listen, there's no need to make your wing as thick as your entire eyelid.

12. Popped collars

Odds are you probably were a huge tool bag if you did that back in the day.

13. Suspender shorts

'A' for practicality, 'E" for looks.

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.

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

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."
