End of the Semester Treats

We're almost there!!!

The final weeks of the semester are always incredibly stressful, boring, and evil and sometimes there never seems to be an end in sight. You probably forgot what it was like to sleep, socialize, or just try to relax. Don't worry, you're almost there! Here are some end of the semester treats awaiting you that you probably completely forgot about!

Eating Real Food

Remember real food that didn't taste like garbage? Remember what it was like to have a variety of different foods that weren't just burgers, fries, pizza, and pasta from your college dining hall? Guess what, you get to eat real food again! It may only be for a few weeks, but you'll finally resuscitate the taste buds you thought were long gone. Oh, and you'll stop having the shits from the stuff they put in college foods!

Actually Celebrating the Holidays

Oh shit, Christmas is coming up! You had absolutely no time to watch any holiday flicks or listen to Christmas music! To be honest, you probably completely forgot it was the holiday season because colleges don't decorate for shit! I mean yeah, there are those generic holiday lights they put up, but they don't even bother trying to decorate for all of the holidays collectively. Well, once the semester ends you can go crazy watching all of your holiday movies and listening to all of the music and actually feel like a human being again. Hooray for holidays!

Bingeing the Hell Out of TV Shows

Sadly, I can't start re-watching some of my favorite shows until the semester ends, but don't forget, we all get to become vegetables on our couches watching endless amounts of television and having absolutely no responsibilities once it's done! It's like summer break all over again! Damn, I miss having no responsibilities.

Seeing Our Friends From Home

Soon we can actually start seeing some of our other friends from home (assuming they are free) and not annoying the hell out of our college friends. It's good to have some balance, but enough on that; I already wrote too many articles on balancing life.

Actually Going to Other Places Again

When your campus has no town and nothing to do and you have no car, your life is pretty much bound to one little area and you are trapped in a bubble. However, between visiting family and friends for the holidays, hanging out at all of your favorite places, going on some winter vacations, and actually being in your house for a long period of time, you'll feel like a renowned explorer. Look at you having a life outside of school!

Hopefully I got you hyped for your winter break. Again, the end is almost near, so do your best! Now get the hell back to that 8 million page paper!

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition

I just know that the idea of releasing vault tracks came out of the moment Taylor remembered she wrote 'Is It Over Now?'

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition
Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."
