If you guys are anything like me, you probably get writer's block. I for one can never think of anything to write. I had a hard time writing essays in high school and in my first year of college as well. If the teacher gives me a topic to write about, I'll be okay. But if it's a creative essay, I had the hardest time. I never had an idea that I thought was "good enough" for people to read. I want to overcome that fear, so I decided to join Odyssey. Here are some really good article ideas to write about when you suffer from writer's block!

1. How many licks does it take to get to the middle of a Tootsie Pop?


Perform a study with you classmates and schoolmates about how many licks it takes to get to the center of a tootsie pop and write about your experience and how other people felt about it! (And of course and average licks result!)

2. Study race, gender or other issues in a Disney movie.

Not only is it a good excuse to watch a Disney movie, but it is also a good chance to see a Disney movie from a different perspective.

3. Interview some professors and ask them what they think college kids do in their free time.

Well, since professors always pile homework on us, let's see what they think we do on a regular basis!

4. Critique some aspect of pop culture.

This is pretty self-explanatory.

5. Write a letter to your 25-, 30-, or 50-year-old self.


This is self-explanatory as well. Just try to think of things that you would want to have done or would want to tell your future self!

6. Write a movie review!


7. Write a list of things you wished you did over the summer –– or things you actually did over the summer.


8. Write 50 random things about yourself.


9. The worst TV shows.


We've all got them!

10. Things you would change about your university.

We all have a list of those too!

11. Do you think women have a say in society today?


Be honest and give out surveys! You will be pretty surprised to what you would find!

12. A list of things you would never do again.

No Ragrets. Not even a single letter.

13. Write a travel blog.

If you like to travel and you do so every break from school, write a photo essay. As they say, a picture is worth a thousand words!

14. Top 10 favorite YouTube videos and stars.


YouTubers can be pretty inspirational sometimes and we can learn a lot about how to live the life you want to live from them! Shoutout to IISuperwomanII, Love you!

15. Write a list of possible Odyssey article topics.

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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?
