Man, we do some weird shit.

8 Things You Do When You're Home Alone
Warner Bros.

1. Wake up in the middle of the day.

Alright, it's 1 pm, I guess I can wake up now. Is it still considered breakfast, or do I eat lunch? Some people are only halfway through their day and I'm just waking up. How grand is this!

2. Eat some weird shit.

Well, I don't really want to eat breakfast, but I need to eat some sort of breakfast item. What about like eggs, with some chips and soda. Both breakfast and lunch! Maybe I'll even make an egg sandwich so I can say I had eggs for breakfast and sandwich for lunch. Perfect! Wait but look at that gallon of ice cream. It's staring me down.


3. Have a dance party.

"What's that? A hat? Crazy, funky, junky hat. Overslept, hair unsightly. tryna look like Kira Knightly. We've been there, we've done that, we see right through your funky hat."

Lemme just bust out my moves real quick.


4. Watch a show you've never watched.

You know what? Today is the day I'm going to try a new show. I have so many recommendations I just don't know which one to start with.


5. Binge watch something on Netflix

The real struggle is not knowing which one to start with, which ends up leading you to re-watching Grey's for the millionth time.

6. Plan life out

Tomorrow I'm actually going to do something. I'm going to get all this shit done, and next week and the week after. I'm going to make it so far up in the chains I'll be the president. I just gotta follow this plan and I'll be all set.


7. Take a nap

Well, It's only 3 pm, I think I can squeeze in a 2-hour nap. Wake up and eat some popcorn or something. Or maybe I could take a nap at 3:30 pm finish this show and wake up in 3 hours. Yeah, that's better.


8. Make yourself look semi-presentable

I mean if someone decides to show up this hair is not going to cut it. I'll put in in a nice pony tail and have light make up. I'll make these sweats work.

40 Gift Ideas for the Indecisive

It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. But also a time of stressing over the perfect gift.

It's officially December. There is less than a month of 2024, and I still feel like yesterday was summer. Now comes the merriest time of the year, the Christmas season.

Everyone has been waiting for this time of year since mid-October (which is way too early, in my opinion) or before. It's a time of love, family, memory-making, and gift-giving. A lot of times when I ask friends and family what they want, I get a lot of "I don't know" or "I don't care."

mu bucket list

I was sitting at my cubicle, now that I am an adult, looking at the rain pouring down on the windowsill, bumming on life, wishing for the rain to just stop for a full day.

There are moments where we count down the hours until work is over and how many more days till the weekend, and this many weeks until something exciting. Or something like that? Well, I was bumming because my next day off from work is not until Memorial Day weekend, which is not until the end of May. And since this is my first year out of college being a “real person,” I am totally missing the winter, spring and summer breaks. I am sure all of us have felt this way even if just for a hot minute…

Great Value Colleges

If you go to or went to Kent State, then more than likely you have done or will do some of these things.

1. You’ve slipped and fallen on the ice at least once.

The winters at Kent are brutal, and while the heated sidewalks and some great snow boots are always a help, there’s no chance you won’t bust it on the ice at least once in your four plus years at school.
