One Rainy Morning

What Is The Scariest Thing That Ever Happened To You?

I woke up one rainy morning around 10:30. There was nothing, but silence throughout my entire house, so I made my way down the hallway to see if anyone was up. No one was even home. No big deal. I decide to head downstairs and make some coffee only to realize that the coffee pot was completely full. I found myself to be overly pleased and excited. Anyway, I go to grab my favorite mug as I do every morning, but it's no where to be found. Okay - no big deal, I'm already over it, so I grab a random mug out of the cabinet. I start to pour myself some coffee, but it doesn't smell like coffee. It just smells like nothing. I just figured it wasn't strong. I mix in some half and half, a little sugar and I take a sip. Tastes like nothing. I'm confused as ever. I add more sugar. Tastes like water, but less than water. It tastes like absolutely nothing, but it's brown like coffee. I'm baffled. I laugh because this is so absurd. I go to the pantry where the coffee is usually kept, and the whole thing is empty. Nothing, but a few paper plates scattered, a box of brownie mix, and a half eaten roll of Ritz crackers. Mind you, this pantry is usually stacked with the best cereals, cookies, and snacks. But now - nothing. I go over to my puppy to fill his food bowl, but he wasn't there. He usually runs when he hears someone getting him food. So I fill his bowl, the usually puppy chow. Except, what comes out of the container is translucent. But I hear it hitting the bottom of the bowl. Translucent pellets hitting the bowl, but I see nothing! I start to panic, but I'm really hungry. So, I go to the fridge to grab a couple of eggs. I like them fried. The eggs feel completely hollow, but I don't think about it too much. I crack an egg onto the hot frying pan, and an already fried egg comes out of the shell. I grab my purse and leave the house in my mismatched pajamas and socks. Where the hell is my family? Am I right? I get in my car, and I am being way too calm. I have no idea why, because I just experienced everything peculiar happen. I drive up the street to the grocery store. Tons of cars there, as always, so I feel better. I walk in, no one is there. No one at all. The aisles are empty. EMPTY. I try to run out, but the automatic opening doors won't budge. I'm stuck in the empty grocery store. I took a quick nap on the cold tiles. When I woke up about 10 minutes later, some guy was trying to wake me up with an iced coffee in his hand. There was a bunch of people staring at me. I was so confused. The aisles were full again, the lines were long, and there were people. I run out to my car and go back home. Everyone is in my house enjoying their morning coffee.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition

I just know that the idea of releasing vault tracks came out of the moment Taylor remembered she wrote 'Is It Over Now?'

A Deep Dive Into Taylor Swift’s Albums: 1989 (Taylor’s Version) Edition
Edited by Hailey Hastings

I am fully emersed into diving deep into every single Taylor Swift album, which I do on my own all the time, but wanted to do it in a way where I am sharing what a special discography she has. I feel like 1989 is the perfect place to start, it's an era that changed everything, and will always be an album people automatically think of when you say "Taylor Swift."
