Sometimes We Just Fail At Fashion: ORU Edition

We all have those days.

Sometimes We Just Fail At Fashion: ORU Edition

I am not a Tulsa native, but since attending ORU, I have slowly become accustomed to the crazy, daily weather changes. Along with these changes comes the struggle to look presentable every day. Some days, we put in the extra effort to look good. But on other days, we just fail at fashion.

Here are 5 times where trying to be fashionable at college, specifically ORU, can be a failure:

1. The time you wanted to up your game and wear a dress or skirt...

...and you were feeling great, like a twirling Taylor Swift on a random front porch:

...but once you went outside, you realized that the wind is definitely a common occurrence in Tulsa. But it's okay, because you still looked cute:

OK, let's be real...this is what really happened:

2. Those times you thought there would be a massive snow storm because the weatherman told you so, but soon thereafter it hits you that it was all a lie...

It was just a dusting, but you are dressed for a blizzard:

...so you end up wearing your warmest wool sweater that your Aunt Tina made, and you're stuck sweating bullets because there's no time to go back to your room to change.

3. Those times you were going to class (knowing that geese would be along your path) so you had to dress like you were going into a battle zone...

Well, because geese are the worst.

4. The times you slipped on your rain boots and had your umbrella at hand, only to find out that it's freakishly sunny outside...

...so you pretend that you totally meant to wear the rain boots and rain coat for the heck of it.

Or even worse, you didn't dress appropriately for any extreme weather, and there was a massive rainstorm:

5. Those days of the week that you have HPE (gym class), but still try to look good after class is over...

...even though you had to run around the track one too many times and the "looking good" part isn't working out. (Pun intended).

What's even worse, is when you can't get the sweating to stop even after class is over.


You may feel like everyone is judging you...

But we're all in the same boat, juggling finals, a social life, and a job. Some may say...

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
