Dumb Bitch Energy: Do You Have It?
mikayla carr

I think the most important thing to start with is that the word bitch does not have to be a bad thing, a word is just that until you make it mean more. For me, I feel like being able to openly describe myself as a bitch is empowering like I'm taking it back from anyone who has used it negatively towards me. It might not make a lot of sense to anyone else, but it makes me feel like I always have the upper hand.

But let's get down to the good stuff, dumb bitch energy. If you're a woman anywhere from 18-25 you have experienced the dumb bitch energy moments. It's like if big dick energy had a femme cousin who was just kind of... a dumb bitch. I want to follow that statement by saying that I don't really think any woman can really make a conscious stupid decision, I think that it just comes down to want versus a need.

For example, every single woman knows an 'F.W.B' isn't really beneficial at all, in fact, it is the epitome of how to mess with your emotions and hurt yourself. But every single time, we just tell ourselves that it will definitely be different this time. But, it never is. This is a dumb bitch energy mood when you actively know that Kyle from Tinder is really cute but doesn't want you for what you actually are... c'mon sis. You know what's going on. You do not need Kyle from Tinder, he is just a placeholder. If he texts you at 2 AM he isn't thinking about how dope your personality is and you as an adult woman know that. But you choose to hit him up regardless because he is so fun.

Or when you know you have an assignment due in an hour and a half but like why not take another shot? You know why know but sometimes it is that dumb bitch energy that jumps out and bites you right on the butt. But the good news is that you are not alone, other women have felt the power that is.

To sum up your new favorite phrase of 2019, dumb bitch energy is when a woman, normally a boss bitch of sorts, makes an active regrettable decision. But we are not alone, knowledge is key. Now, we can work together toward actively saving ourselves from the 'D.B.E'

"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.
