Be with someone who makes your Mondays feel like Fridays.

You know that Friday feeling? Pure joy and excitement?

In society, we are taught to look forward to the weekend for rest and amusement; a break from the draining mundane. We often tell ourselves, “Don’t worry, the weekend is just around the corner”. If we look forward to a day of the week that much, shouldn't we wait to share our lives with someone that makes us feel the same way? Why do we simply accept people who leave us with the same dread as waking up on a Monday morning?

When you finally find your Friday, you’ll know it. You’ll know when you realize the sound of their voice feels like home. Or when you see them and you suddenly get the same feeling of anticipation as when you see your food coming at a restaurant. You’ll know it when you step back and try to count your ridiculous amount of inside jokes, only to find there are too many and you just can’t keep track of them all. Or when you find yourself communicating with only facial expressions and laughter. That feeling of pure joy and excitement is imbedded in the way they are included in some of your favorite memories, and you can’t imagine a future without them. Like days on a calendar, your Friday will sneak up on you when you least expect it. And like every weekend you will find yourself always looking forward to your time with them. Like every Friday, you know they will always be there.

They are much different from a Monday or a Wednesday. They won’t weigh you down or exhaust you. They will lift your spirits even higher than you thought your spirit could go. Fridays love each and every flaw that mark your body or stain your heart. Fridays support your goals and dreams, while Mondays make a joke out of your wants or desires. Mondays suck and everybody knows it.

So please, I’m begging you, darling, wait for your Friday. Don’t ever settle for a Tuesday, a mediocre Wednesday, or even a Thursday. Because who knows, your Friday may be right around the corner.

"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.
