Date My Friend: An Adventurous Photographer In Phoenix

If there's anything great about life, it's that it offers us some great adventures that we just have to take. There are so many moments to seize that make life memorable, whether it's a spontaneous hike in the mountains or a late-night talk with a good friend.

No one understands this better than one of my best friends, Cierra Norton. She's one of the most adventurous people I've ever met, so if you're looking for adventure and the experience of trying new things, she's the perfect date for you!

About Cierra

  • Age: 20
  • Height: 5'3"
  • School: Grand Canyon University
  • Job: Future Photojournalist (hopefully for a nonprofit organization)
  • Location: Phoenix, AZ
  • Hometown: San Diego, CA

Cierra's Preferences:

  • Dogs or cats? Both! Especially two special puppies named Reece and Porkchop.
  • Night owl or morning person? Night Owl
  • "The Bachelor" or "Keeping Up With The Kardashians"? To quote Cierra herself, "lol, neither" (she loves watching National Geographic documentaries)
  • Taylor Swift or Beyonce? Again, to quote Cierra, "lol, neither" (she loves listening to alternative music)
  • Baby Yoda or Baby Groot? Baby Yoda

Never has Cierra ever lit a candle.

If there was one funny story from Cierra's life that perfectly describes them as a person it's this:

If there was ever a story to describe Cierra, it would be that one day, when she was on a hike, she got so hopelessly lost on the trail that she took a delay that lasted several hours. She ended up encountering a rattlesnake and a deer carcass, but in true Cierra fashion, she took it all in stride. She even managed to capture some great photos on the way.

Four qualities Cierra is looking for in a partner and one they're absolutely not:

  1. Loves Jesus ✓
  2. Always down for a spontaneous adventure ✓
  3. Dark hair ✓
  4. Loves McDonald's (especially their sweet tea) ✓
  5. Cierra is NOT looking for someone who is disrespectful of nature ✗

"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."

Christmas tree

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.
