Everything you love about Stonehill.

The ABC's Of Stonehill College
Tumblr

Since freshman year, Stonehill has slowly, but surely, become my home. I walk through campus with so much pride, knowing, not only, that this is where I live, but also that this is where I will become a better, more intelligent and mature person. Throughout my Stonehill journey thus far, I've become extraordinarily familiar with the Stonehill community and what makes someone a Stonehill student. With that being said, here are the ABC's of Stonehill College:

A is for Ace's Place:


B is for Bridges:

Which one? The heights bridge? The orange bridge? The commons bridge? The O'Hara bridge?

C is for Clock:

...and all the Instagram pictures of it.

D is for Daddy's Dairy:

They have Stonehill-styled sprinkles and accept HillCards. What more can you ask?

E is for Expenses:

...because our school is mad expensive.

F is for Friends:

Gotta thank Stonehill for bringing me to some of the most wonderful people I've ever met.

G is for Grass:

...and watering it even when it's raining.

H is for The Hill:

Drunk, 1 am Mac'nCheese Bites and Motz Sticks sounds like home.

I is for Instagram:

...and all the glorious Stonehill Campus pictures on it.

J is for Junior Courts:

Courts parties aren't exactly fun, but we all go anyways, don't we?

K is for Keys:

....and trying not to lose them because if you do, you'll spend the next hour looking for an RA and forming a plan to distract them from looking into your room when they open your door because you have an illegal pet and a handle of vodka sitting out.

(Not from experience)

L is for Library:

We spend all our time there in the week to justify not touching our backpacks over the weekend.

M is for Midnight Madness:


#HillYa

N is for New Hall:

...and being thankful to go there instead of the courts.

O is for Owen's:

Unfortunately, only students who are 21 have ever been.

P is for Parking:

Don't even get me started. As soon as someone has a valid reason for why Stonehill decided to let freshman have cars on campus the same year they shut down half of Lot 17 for construction, please, let me know.

Q is for Quality:

...not quantity! Stonehill may be small, but we're extra special.

R is for Roommates:

...or suite mates or whoever you get the pleasure to live with. It can be difficult at times, but in the end, you know it's a blessing to live with all your best friends.

S is for Sodexo:

...and all the stomach aches that follow.

T is for To-go Containers:

I mean I'm certainly losing a ton of money because sometimes I get things in to-go containers when I'm eating at the dining commons, but oh well. Sometimes I get food in plates and then take them back to my room with me, too, so I'm just full of surprises.

U is for Ugly:

...because that's how I go to class- sweatpants and t-shirts.

V is for Vineyard Vines:


Rich people go to Stonehill. I don't fit in.

W is for Wifi:

I'm honestly just used to having sh*tty wifi. As I type this, my words are minutes behind me because my wifi is so bad. Nothing works.

X is for Exes:


Stonehill is such a small school. If you date someone or have any sort of relationship with anyone that doesn't work out, you will see them everywhere.

Y is for Your Future:

...because Stonehill is where your future plans becomes a reality.

Z is for Zzz's:

Make sure you get enough of these! Personally, I can't function with less than 10 hours, but that's just me.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
