As I stated last week...THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS!!! There is a real possibility of setting yourself, someone else, or something on fire. Take precautions to minimise fire danger. That being said, I LOVE doing this and the results are always nothing less than spectacular.

Ok, so I promised to teach you how to do this...

There are a few essentials you need.

Steel Wisk Steel Wool

Steel Rope

9Volt Battery or a Lighter

LAST BUT NOT LEAST A FIRE EXTINGUISHER...SAFETY FIRST

I can not stress enough about safety! This is literally molten steel on the end of a string and flying around in all directions. A most important fact to remember, what goes up will come down and those lovely sparks going up and out and going to come down and some of them WILL fall on you! This brings me to Protective Clothing. Long Pants (Denim) Long Sleeves and Hat. Nothing made of Nylon. Cotton is prefered!

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Everybody gets sick once in a while, but getting sick while in college is the absolute worst. You're away from home and your mom who can take care of you and all you really want to do is just be in your own bed. You feel like you will have never-ending classwork to catch up on if you miss class, so you end up going sick and then it just takes longer to get better. Being sick in college is really tough and definitely not a fun experience. Here are the 15 stages that everyone ends up going through when they are sick at college.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
