5 Reasons Why Homecoming Week Is THE Best Week of College

It's that time of year. I've got spirit, yes I do. We've got spirit, how 'bout you?!?! It's your college's homecoming week!!! Prepare for fun!


1. Crazy Fun and Free Events ALL Week

As a college student, were already broke as can be, so fun free events and possibly free stuff have our names written all over it.

2. The Overall Hype Around Campus

We though high school homecoming was lit. No. College homecoming is bigger, wilder, and feels like it lasts forever. Everyone even after homecoming is in a good mood.

3. College Professors Cut Some Slack

Not every professor will, but most professors will cut some slack or cancel class on Friday before homecoming. So if you're lucky enough to have one or two like this, enjoy it.

4. Homecoming Weekend

Especially if you win the homecoming game, the parties are crazy. Full of people, loud music, everyone having a wonderful time. Just remember to be safe and have a designated driver if you're going to drink. On bigger campuses, I definitely recommend having a party buddy to help make sure you don't get yourself into sticky situations.

5. You only get four

Like high school homecomings, there are only four chances to enjoy these as a student. So be spirited. Feel the pride. Enjoy each and every one of your college homecoming because before you know it, you'll just be another name on their records that received a degree from them.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
