Coming into college from Florida to Virginia, I couldn't bring much stuff so I had to get creative. Bringing photos is always a good idea but how to do it was a concern.

1. Hanging up photos!


Try hanging up photos with clothes pins and sting or put colorful paper behind the pictures to give your room a pop.

2. Make a picture collage calendar

Buy a picture collage from the dollar store, put some fun paper in the back, and write your days on the glass with dry erase marker.

3. Use shoe holders as snack holders.


Either use your shoe holder from move in day or get one from the dollar store. Hang it over your door and right before you leave you will never forget a snack.

4. Branch hook

Next time you are outside pick up a branch, paint it whatever color you wish, and hang it up.

5. Crayon rainbow art.


Buy a white canvas from the store and some crayons. Glue crayons in color of the rainbow or however you like, use a hair dryer to melt the crayons to create rainbow art, and hang it up!

I hope these ideas make your college dorm room pop and had a homey feel to it!

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
