Mars Hill University As Told By Jennifer Lawrence
Mars Hill University

Oh good ole Mars Hill. The place that we love so much, but at times it is a struggle! So, here's what it's like being a student at Mars Hill, as told by the amazingly honest Jennifer Lawrence. (Please don't take everything TOO seriously. It is all for fun!)


1. Realizing that it is visitation day, and the food is top notch on these days so you step into the Caf like...


2. But when it's not visitation day, and you have to settle for what they have...

"I guess I will just make a sandwich..."


3. Smiling for your student I.D picture like...


4. And realizing you're gonna have to keep that picture for the rest of your college career!

*Senior Year* "I don't even look like that anymore!"


5. Snow days are tragic at the Hill, so you prepare for it because you're gonna show that snow who is boss...


6. But for some reason you always end up like this...


"They should've cancelled classes"


7. And don't get me started on walking up Huffman hill...


"I'm driving."


8. When you FINALLY get a break during fall semester for Thanksgiving and the professors are like...


"Have a great break, and rest as much as you can!" Right.


9. When you and your girls show up at your first Mars Hill party as a freshman...

Slay.


10. And then you second guess your decision and wonder why you are there...


11. So you leave and hit up Waffle House because that's the closest place that is open late...

"I'll have a chocolate chip waffle with EXTRA chocolate chips"


12. And don't get me started on the business office...

Me: "How do I have a $10,000 balance?!"
Them: "Sorry I can't answer that question but someone downstairs can."


13. When you see the new freshman walking around campus...

"Did I look like that when I was a wee freshman?"


14. When CAB throws a huge Bingo Night, and you keep on losing...


"I CALLED BINGO FIRST!"


15. Whenever you smell a skunk, all you can think about is Mars Hill...

"Run away from the scent as fast as you can! And don't go near Fox! The skunks are down there!"


16. And for some reason all of the professors LOVE assigning out of class group work...


17. So you just have to deal with it and hope you get a good grade...


18. When you are a freshman and you HAVE to go to SLAM...

"AWWW MAN WHY DO I HAVE TO GO"


19. When you are an upperclassman and you get to choose to go to SLAM...

"Ya know, I actually like SLAM"


20. When your upperclassman friends are graduating...

"What am I gonna do next year without you"


21. Dealing with the TERRIBLE wifi on campus...

"That's it! I'm going to get wifi at Starbucks!"


22. If they raise tuition ONE MORE TIME...

"What do you mean they're charging $2,000 for books that don't even cost nearly that much, let alone I CAN'T EVEN KEEP THEM WITHOUT YOU CHARGING ME AGAIN!"


23. And even though you sometimes wonder where all your money has gone...



24. You still love Mars Hill, and wouldn't trade this experience for the world.

I have gained some amazing friends, organizations, a beautiful campus, wonderful and supportive professors and staff, and so much love for my school.

25. GO MARS! LOVE YOU FOREVER! MEAN IT!

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

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.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
