15 Mundane Things College Students Proclaim As ‘Miracles’
Brynathyn University

These are those moments in college that make you awe in shock and gasp, "WHAT?!"

1. All of your deadlines fall on different days/weeks.

Like what? Professors are actually aware and considerate of that fact that you take more than one class? That's insane.

2. Your wardrobe consists of more than cozy university apparel.

If you wear anything else other than sweatpants and sweatshirts, you deserve an award. What twenty-something year old owns dress pants? Relax, you only have an internship. You don't know the true meaning of a 9-5.

3. Your diet contains fresh fruits and vegetables.

You don't even glance at 25 cent ramen anymore.

4. You can understand your professor's accent.

Bonus miracle: you know how to say their name with confidence.

5. You perform exceptionally on a quiz or exam that you legitimately did not study for.

You didn't even purchase a notebook for this class and you're somehow getting by?

6. You're able to zone out of lectures and still be on track.

YOU didn't even know you were that talented.

7. Your resume is close to being two pages.

You are...employable??

8. You have free time.

Hours of it.

9. You get your work done early instead of procrastinating.

Like, what?

10. Not everyone in your class is a smartass.

Unprecedented.

11. Not everyone in your class is a dumbass.

Omg, borrowing notes from a class you missed is actually helpful.

12. When people ask you how you're doing, you're able to respond with other adjectives besides, "tired", "stressed," "depressed," "suicidal," and "homicidal."

#blessed

13. You clean your dorm bathroom.

Thoroughly.

14. You get a healthy amount of sleep each night.

Practically giving you superhero-like skills like "staying awake in class" and having enough energy to workout on a regular basis.

15. You finally have enough money to go out with friends.

WHAT. IS. THIS. SORCERY?

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

8tracks radio

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:
