I'll admit, I'm fairly new to the nail game. There are so many designs and colors to choose from, and it can be a very tedious, very expensive thing to keep up with. As someone who is always chipping her nail polish or breaking her nails, I decided to try my hand (literally) at acrylic nails. I had heard a lot of positive things about them, how they are durable and look amazing for up to a month before you have to get them filled. Taking the risk, I nervously walked into the nail salon and braced myself for what was to come. I opted for a coffin shape and a maroon color for my first experiment, and the results were honestly shocking.

1. First of all, wow, my nails look amazing.

I say this every time I get them done, but these nails were honestly STUNNING. It was the first time I actually liked the way my nails looked.

2. The shape is everything I'd dreamed of. 

Coffin 4 life. (And it's also recommended by manicurists because its the most durable shape!)

3. I could probably kill a man with these daggers if I wanted to

And that thought has crossed my mind a lot, TBH.

4. My boyfriend is going to ask me to scratch his back forever now

A blessing and a curse.

5. Wait, how do I type on my phone now?

Alright, just gotta take it a little slower...turn on autocorrect....abuse the hell out of the backspace button...

6. Bloody hell, how do I TYPE with these things?!

At least my hands look good while I try to keep up with these lecture notes.

7. How do people write with pens and pencils with these things?!

Doing anything revolving my hands is becoming just a little bit tedious.

8. Hey, a whole week has passed and I haven't chipped or broken a nail yet!

This may all be worth it....

9. OK, I'm totally rocking this

Giphy

I've had my ups and downs, and I text a lot slower, but it's all worth it.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
