A List Of Things I'll Never Do Again

A perm? Seriously?

A List Of Things I'll Never Do Again
YouTube

We're all humans, which means by definition, we all (and I mean ALL) make mistakes. We might think we're all that and a bag of chips, but when it comes down to it, we have a few things we would 100 percent positively absolutely never ever do again...under any circumstance. Here's a list of my previous (and slightly embarrassing) disasters that I'll never do again:

1. Get a perm

Let's leave this hairstyle where it belongs: in the 80's.

2. Shot race

Unless you're a fan of hugging the toilet all night (and the following morning), stick to mixed drinks.

3. Dip dye my hair with Kool-Aid

This was cool in middle school. I think.

4. Date a jerk


Roses are red. Violets are blue. You were a jerk and I hate you.

5. Eat a salad for dinner just because I didn't want to seem fat ordering a burger

Sometimes, on a rare occasion, I actually want a salad for dinner. But most of the time, I want a burger. A big juicy burger with fries on the side. And a milkshake. Treat yo self.

6. Listen to Skrillex.

"Scary Monsters and Nice Sprites"? My mom was right to be concerned.

7. BUY music

This is 2017. We don't BUY our music. The internet has us covered when it comes to sharing and downloading what we want to hear.

8. Neglect sunscreen just because I wanted to get a tan

In the olden days, being pale meant you were wealthy because it meant you weren't working outside all day long exposing yourself to the sun rays. Instead, you worked indoors while you were fed grapes and sat on a throne of gold. I'm going to pretend that's still what it means, so you can find me indoors eating grapes and watching Netflix.

9. Wear a matching jumpsuit out in public

Unless you're a Cheetah girl, you are absolutely banned from wearing matching sweatpants and sweatshirts out in public. This includes the Juicy Contour jumpsuit that everyone had in the early 2000's.

10. Watch "Ridiculousness"

The show itself isn't half bad. But, HER LAUGH. I can't handle it. It haunts me in my sleep.

11. Eat White Castle

Harold and Kumar themselves couldn't even persuade me to step foot in there.

12. Stick my nose in a Tiki torch

I'm not sure why I did it to begin with: I was young, curious, and apparently, stupid. My nose swelled up like a balloon after a wasp attacked me.

13. Bikram Yoga

Yoga is for certain people, you see. I am not one of those people. Nor will I ever be one of those people.

14. Shop at Aeropostale

There's a reason they declared bankruptcy.

15. Try to wax my own eyebrows

7th grade is a tough time for anyone; especially someone who accidentally shaved one of their eyebrows off.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
