Happy sylly week!

New semester, new you, new drinks. Going out to the bars in your college town is sometimes intimidating, there's not a direct menu, you'll see bottles of alcohol lined up from Monarch to Smirnoff and there are so many different flavors. I'm now 22 years old, so I've decided this year I need to stop shotgunning beers in a frat house; I'm evolving, ok? There are so many combinations with vodka, rum, and even whiskey that will taste so good it will get you dancing and maybe even singing some karaoke. I'm no expert, but I've ordered enough gross drinks to know some good ones.

Here are the 14 best drinks to order this syllabus week.

1. Vodka Sour

Vodka, lime juice, and simple syrup, this drink is sweet but also has a sour bite!

2. Jack & Coke

Simple, cheap, good.

3. Vodka Cran

Basic bitch but smart bitch because this is yummy

4. AMF

Adios!!!!! This is so good but will definitely get you blacked out.

5. Long Island Iced Tea

The BEST but has a lot of alcohol so this delicious drink will definitely catch up to you.

6. Vodka Redbull/Rockstar

Tastes so good but will 100% sneak up on you and you will be very drunk.

7. Vodka Soda

A classic. Just ice, vodka, tonic water, and a lime slice. This definitely isn't the tastiest drink on this list but it is great if you're trying to cut out sugary alcohol and extra calories.

8. Malibu Pineapple

Pineapple juice and Malibu rum, this is a tropical treat you don't taste any alcohol in it.

9. Dirty Shirley

All the goodness of a Shirley Temple but with alcohol, they grow up so fast.

10. Sex On The Beach

A fruity concoction made with vodka, peach schnapps, cranberry juice, and orange juice.

11. Tequila Sunrise

Tequila, orange juice, and grenadine syrup, this drink is sure to get you dancin'.

12. Lemon Drop

Perfectly lemony and perfectly sweet.

13. Whiskey Sour

Whiskey, lemon juice, sugar, and sometimes even a dash of egg white. Although at most college bars it's just whiskey, lemon juice, and sugar.

14. Cougarita

Exclusively at The Coug in Pullman, WA. A margarita, Wazzu style.

See y'all this year for some Cougaritas!

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
