It's pumpkin carving szn, people! Everyone is Halloween shopping for costumes, plastic spiders, spooky skeletons, and the perfect pumpkin to dissect. But how is one to carve in an artsy or creative way, though? You came to the right place. Here's a couple of ideas to consider before you start dicing up pumpkin carcass.

1. Use a laser

Grab your handy dandy laser that I'm sure you keep in your back pocket and really just go for it.

2. Use science

Isn't it a hassle to poke out the pieces of pumpkin you just cut? No longer! Make it explode.

3. Find a squirrel

Use your natural resources.

4. Shoot it

This technique will probably double-time your efforts! The bullets are gonna have to come out the other side, so you'll end up with a smiley face on both sides of your pumpkin!

5. Beer bottles

Just shove some beer bottles into your pumpkin. Then later, maybe stuff the insides with ice, and you've got a party.

6. Use cookie cutters

It beats cutting with a knife! Eh? See what I did there?

7. Take it seriously

You could get really into it and Picasso the heck out of your pumpkin.

8. Drill it

If shooting bullets through a pumpkin made you uncomfortable but you still wanna go at it with a masculine approach, use a drill!

9. Use a turtle

Similar to the squirrel approach, set a lil turtle in front of a pumpkin. The tiny nibbles will give it that super detailed look you're going for. Plus, isn't this cute?

10. The classic knife

Maybe don't go at it with as much angst as Lucy, but you've got the idea.

All of the other jack-o-lanterns will be so jealous! Just get your head in the game and really put yourself into it.

Alright, I'm done with puns now.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
