To My High School Best Friends

To the girls who have always been there for all my ups and downs, I couldn't thank you enough.

To My High School Best Friends
Emily Davis

To the two most amazing girls I know,

I can't put into words how lucky I am to have you guys in my life. You guys have seen me at my best and at my worst, but you always stick around to help me get through any situation — no matter how messed up it may be. Through every break-up, heartache, and failure, I can always count on you to be there for me. I'm beyond thankful that I can always rely on you to help me get through all those shitty situations and I'm even more grateful that I can be there to help you too.

It feels like yesterday we were sophomores sitting in the cafeteria, joking around about anything and everything. We had always been super close and did everything together--from eating lunch to buying our prom dresses to working Clemson Concessions for 12 hours straight. You guys were my first call when I got accepted into CofC and a shoulder to cry on when Dartmouth didn't work out. You supported me through the toughest times of my life and I couldn't imagine what my life would be like without you.

By the end of our senior year, you guys were no longer my Best Friends--you were my sisters. The hardest goodbye I had to make was to y'all and my plan of moving across the state was harder than I had originally thought. We had grown up together and shared everything with each other; moving away felt like the worst decision for me during that time. I was afraid we would start to grow apart and slowly lose our friendship. Honestly, it was hard to imagine starting college without you guys at my side.

Now, as my first semester at college is coming to an end, I couldn't have been more wrong. Even though we might not talk every day or see each other all the time, you two are still my first call if I have any major news. Anytime I need a good laugh or someone to listen, I can still count on you guys to always be there. I couldn't be more thankful to call y'all my sisters and I can't wait to see what the rest of our lives hold for us.

Love always, Em

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. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

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. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:
