You NEED To Know About Pothos, Here's Why
McCall Donoho

Let's get started with why indoor plants are THE BOMB:

First of all, plants create oxygen...like the exact oxygen that WE, as humans, need to breathe. By oxygenating your lungs with indoor plants, your respiratory system is cleansed with the fresh, pure, and organic oxygen; which is incredibly essential tp counteract pollution in the air.

Adding plants inside your home also raises the vibration of the space. Energy is able to move freely and quickly which, in turn, increases the possibility of happy home-rs.

Indoor plants, obviously, add greenery to your home! Of course, the foliage with being aesthetically pleasing to look at, however, adding the extra green to your home can increase the love in the space. As green is the color of the heart chakra, due to color therapy, adding the color into your space can balance and realign your heart chakra.

Now, I can move on to pothos.

POTHOS IS THE BEST!

Pothos, or Epipremum, requires minimal light -- however, the lower the light, the less variegation or color your plant will produce.

Pothos only needs to be watered every seven to ten days.

Pothos is made up of vines that can grow impressively long and double as decor.

AND!

(I saved the best for last) ...

Pothos actually purifies the air!

On top of supplying fresh, pure, oxygen for your space, pothos will also CLEAN your space. Basically, like one of those vacuum robots that cleans while you're at work -- except those vacuums can get pretty pricey, and a baby pothos plant can be less than $10.

I have recently gone POTHOS CRAZY. To the point of quadrupling the number of pothos plants in my home. so clearly, there's something pretty great about these things!

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester.

Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
