Adventures in Online Dating Part 2

I'm back again with another rendition of adventures in online dating. It has been about three weeks since my last article on the subject, so I thought I'd give an update. I have met a few very nice people, however, as someone who has anxiety, it can get to be a lot. Sometimes texting three different people at the same time can be detrimental to one's mental health. So while all of this is fun and games, always remember to do what is best for you and to take a break. Now that the PSA is out of the way, let us get into it.

This week I decided to try and tinder and it is something else. The first thing I noticed is that people are BOLD. Some are straight up and just want to hook up, some are there to mess with people, and there's is a very small percent who might want a relationship. A lot of conversations go like this,

"insert pick-up line"

"haha really funny"

"thanks, so you looking to ****"

*block

It's a rough world out there. Then there's the few who start conversations with you and want to know everything about you. Then BAM, they ask you for a picture and they ruin it. Word of advice, not a great way to get someone to want to talk to you more. Then there is my personal favorite, adding someone on snap and then you just stop talking to each other. My views on my story have never been higher.

To the few nice guys, thank you, you give me faith in humanity. However, that''s just two people so it still is like a 2% chance. Next week I will be back after asking other people their stories and opinions on online dating! Until next time, happy dating and be safe!!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
