The best time of the year

Holiday Cheer Is Almost Here
Wall Paper Safari

Well, now Thanksgiving break is here and all of us students are beyond thrilled to eat our favorite dishes that Mom cooks. Not even that, but now we can finally sleep for more than 5 hours a night and don't have to spend half the night studying our lives away. We get to spend time with our families and our best friends from our hometown for the first time since August. All of us know this break is going to go by too quickly and before we know it we're gonna be back to pulling those all nighters and living on caffeine.

Although this is all true, after Thanksgiving break we only have about 3 weeks until the best time of the year arrives. CHRISTMAS.

Christmas is not only the best holiday of the year, but definitely just the best time of the year as well. The first day of December is the start of happy spirits and good vibes for sure. About a week later many of us students will be stressing over final exams and what not, but still the whole month of December is happiness for everyone.

So, everyone has just got to try and hang in there. This is a stressful time for all of us because even though we have a break from school, we are constantly thinking about the school work we should be doing and we just can't help it.

The holiday season is finally here and all we want to do is eat Christmas cookies, open presents, and hangout by the fire place. Pretty soon we will all be able to do this, we just have to get through the rest of the semester which all we can.

All of our college friends are in the same boat, so we can celebrate the holiday cheer with them as well. While studying for finals everyone should take some time to enjoy December and the holiday cheer. Make holiday cookies with your roommates. Do a secret santa with your girlfriends. We can all find some fun in the midst of the very awful end of semester work.

It's just a reminder to enjoy the breaks and times with friends and family at home. We will all get through finals and will still enjoy the holidays.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
