The 10 Feelings All Freshmen Feel When They Come Home After Their First Semester

Coming home after first semester like...

1. Crying when you finally get to see your pet

Giphy

MY LOVE IT HAS BEEN TOO LONG!!!!!!

2. Crying some more when you meet up with your best friend

Giphy

MY OTHER LOVE I HAVE MISSED YOU!!!!

3. Crying a third time when your favorite dish is made for dinner

Giphy

WOW THIS IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE DINNING HALL!!!

4.  Telling yourself you have to stop crying because you haven't been away that long to begin with 

Giphy

Wow okay sorry about that y'all, I'm feeling better. I'm just happy to be home.

5. Finding joy in the little things of your home town

Giphy

I love this corner. I used to pass it all of the time but loo now some flowers are growing underneath the stop sign. Incredible.

6. Sleeping. In. 

Giphy

Enough said.

7. Panicking because you think you have homework but then you remember that you don't have to do any homework 

Giphy

You mean I can just watch Netflix without any stress?

8. Feeling like your in high school again when you go out and just hang with some friends

Giphy

I don't have to worry about anything. What's college debt? What's that B+ that should have been an A? I don't know all I know is that I'm back.

9. Getting excited for the holidays again 

Giphy

I have no money but I am going to try to buy everyone the best gifts.

10. Letting the happiness wash over you because you are finally home and you just get to enjoy it for four-ish weeks 

Giphy

This will be the best month of my life, I know it.

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.

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.
