Witty, annoying, or both?

survival Guide: college move-in day

It's that time of the year:

College Move-In season.😯

With move-in season comes lots of stress, money, packing, and of course, the basic Instagram captions. I'll admit, they're creative and I've used them too.

But let's face it, when you've seen the same on hundreds of times... it gets old.

1. "Hey MTV, welcome to my crib"

This is not a 4 billion dollar house, this is a $1,200 a semester, 10x12 room. MTV does not really care about your Christmas tree lights around your wall or the cheap bed skirt, and neither do I.

2. "My hardest goodbye" *inserts pet pic*

....OK. I'll admit. I'm guilty of this one too. But is this really EVERYONE'S hardest goodbye?! What about Mom? Dad? Your best friend? Your BED!?

3. "*insert college town name* ain't ready"

Oh no... YOU aren't ready.

4. "On to better things..."

First year of college meme.

Freshman 15? All nighters? Student loans? Let me know what these better things are that you're talking about...

5. "Messy bun and getting stuff done!"

This is more of a school year kind of caption, but let's be real. The girl that took this picture is INDEED not getting stuff done as she probably took 30 minutes to take and edit the perfect picture to post.

6. "Dorm Sweet Dorm"

Maybe it's just me but this one really doesn't work for me. It just doesn't have the same ring as "Home Sweet Home". Also I really just want to stay at home.

7. "On to the next chapter"

I'm like 99% sure everyone's used this one at some point.


Have a great school year, everyone. And if you're stuck on a caption for the picture your dad took of you sitting on your dorm bed, I hope you can utilize one of these.

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.
