I'm going to take you on a tour of the wonderful campus of Mississippi State University through a series of pictures. This tour is not all inclusive. It hits many of the top spots as well as some obscure spots you should still probably know.

First stop,

LEE HALL

Named after the first University president, Confederate General Stephen Lee. This is the crowning jewel on the main part of MSU campus.

Next stop,

THE DRILL FIELD

Opposite Lee Hall is Swalm Hall and in between them is the Drill Field. It is the main academic location on campus with many on the classroom building along its perimeter.

Next stop,

MITCHELL MEMORIAL LIBRARY

This is MSU's library, which is finishing up construction on its new expansion this semester. "Pardon Our Noise"

Next Stop,

COLVARD STUDENT UNION

The Colvard Student Union is one of the busiest locations on campus with a food court, classrooms, meeting rooms, HCDC, Student Affairs, and Greek Life.

Next Stop,

BELL ISLAND

This is the small strip of land between the Union and the Chapel. It houses the retired bell from the Chapel and thus the name.

Next stop,

CHAPEL OF MEMORIES

This is the bell tower and the chapel for the University. All of the brick are from the old dormitory, Old Main, which burned down in the late 40s, early 50s.

Next stop,

ALLEN HALL

This is another academic building that additionally houses the College of Education and the Dean of Student Affairs.

Next stop,

THE JUNCTION & DAVIS WADE STADIUM

This is the main tailgate area for weekend football games. HAIL STATE!

Last stop,

HUMPHREY COLISEUM

This is the home of the basketball teams for both Men's and Women's. It is located on the north side of campus.



Well I hope you have enjoyed your tour! And don't forget to share this for any of your friends that might not know what some of these locations are. Or you can share it so your relatives can see what a beautiful university you have chosen.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"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!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
