Hot In Stillwater

12

Because last weeks article for the boys was such a hit, we bring you another one! Although some of this information may sound similar to last week's tips, that just means that it is HIGHLY important! So boys, read and follow.

Guys, have you asked yourself recently, "Why should I care what I look like?" Well, here are a few reasons that might make you stop and think: a good-looking guy in a stylish outfit can make more money, elevate his career and influence others. And, of course, it can't hurt too much in the romance department.


Shorts

Do:
Wear shorts that are a fun color. While basic colors like khakis and navy are smart to have, it is okay to go for fun colors, too. Red, blue or colors that are great if you pair them with the right thing. If you are going to wear a statement pair of shorts, then wear a basic, plain shirt.


Don’t: Wear shorts that are too short. Length is so important. If your shorts are too short, too tight or too small in any way, girls instantly put you in the “dweeb” category. In order to avoid this label, make sure those shorts are the correct length! Follow this same rule when wearing a swimsuit, too.

Shoes

Do:
Wear athletic shoes, Jack Purcell’s and Sperry’s. The key to pulling these shoes off is to make sure your outfit matches. If you wear athletic shoes, then wear athletic shorts and a t-shirt with it.  If you wear Jack Purcell’s, pick out your outfit accordingly.


Don’t: Wear flip-flops unless you are going directly to the pool. I know they are tempting because they are so easy to slip on, but unless you are going straight to the pool, opt for something other than the flip-flop. If you have to wear them, be sure your toes are presentable. Also, if your feet are tan, that will work in your favor and you can wear flip-flops more freely.

Swimwear

Do: Wear a swimsuit that fits well and is long enough. Wearing a swimsuit that is too short will put you in the same “dweeb” category talked about above! If you are not sure what exactly to look for when purchasing a swimsuit, going with a basic suit is a good idea. When in doubt, go with plain. Keeping it simple is always a good idea. Don’t do anything too rambunctious.

Don’t: Have a farmers tan. I know sometimes they are hard to avoid, but do your best. They show girls how pale you normally are and they look awkward. This rule also applies to your white feet. I realize that we are telling you to rarely wear flip- flops, so you are probably thinking “how do I avoid having white feet if I am not allowed to wear flip-flops?” Well, there isn’t really a solution to this! Just make sure that when you do go to the pool, your feet get some sun.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

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.
