50 Things I Miss About The Best Place On Villanova's Campus: The Quad

Kaitlyn Stivers

Everyone knows that The Quad is the best place on Villanova's campus. In fact, it's an irrefutable statement. Unfortunately, time in our favorite place was cut short. Although we had to leave early, we can't discount the amazing times we did have. What better way to honor the many 'quad bools' than a reflection on some of my favorite memories in my favorite place. So, without further ado, I am honored to present a comprehensive list documenting some of my favorite memories, and what makes The Quad so special.

1. Quad bools. Duh.

2. Sully 007!!

3. Waking up to the sweet sound of an aggressive lawn mower....in December.

4. Waking up to the garbage truck at ungodly hours of the morning

5. The Schmourts

6. Taco Tuesday in the Pit

7. Having my shower caddy punted down the ground floor hallway

8. Living with my best friend

9. Falling down the Bartley stairs. Yup.

10. Date functions

11. No toilet paper in the 3rd stall on Sully ground floor

12. My little

13. Studying in the Sully lounge

14. The Exchange

15. Attempting to relive my 7th grade basketball glory days

16. Cova burrito bowls

17. A freezer fully stocked with Ben & Jerry's pints (Shoutout my Tonight Dough people!!)

18. Bringing my speaker to the shower and shamelessly singing 'Dancing Queen'

19. Themed nights

20. Wells Fargo tailgates

21. Late night (mozz sticks and mac & cheese to be precise)

22. Bachelor Mondays

23. Chairs thrown down the stairs at 3 a.m.

24. The sin-a-muffins from Holy Grounds

25. Talking to people in class and not through a screen

26. An endless supply of chips and salsa courtesy of Conn Convenience (aka Carket)

27. Basketball games in the Finn

28. Mario Kart

29. Walks to Starbucks

30. Pictures in Driscoll

31. Sitting in a CampCo booth

32. The 3 roll special from Vic's

33. My Kardashian: 'America's Royal Family' flag

34. Dancing with my friends

35. 10 honey BBQ wings on the bone from CampCo

36. Movie nights

37. Wearing everyone's clothes but my own

38. Xolos, obviously!

39. My roommate's Crocs

40. Being scared to get anything from under my bed

41. Zilly Fries

42. Late night Manilla's

43. Sunsets

44. Pedialyte Pops (If you haven't already tried them, these are a staple!!)

45. Going to chapter with my sisters <3

46. "Be safe and have fun!!....But... mostly have fun!!"

47. Laughing so hard it's a better workout than Chloe Ting

48. Running across the intersection with 1 second left...yes, I'm THAT girl

49. Singing my favorite songs, and no one caring about my brutal pitch

50. Most of all...I miss being in my favorite place, making friends and making memories, surrounded by the best people.

Needless to say, bury me in the quad.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:
