20 Things You Can Ask A Person Instead Of 'Sup'
Anushree Rayarikar

Picture this: You meet someone cute in class, you start talking to them, and they seem funny so you exchange numbers. You go back to your dorm hoping your phone will light up with a text from them. Your phone buzzes. Anxiously, you go to pick it up and read what fascinating things they have to say. You open the text, and it reads: "Sup."

As scintillating as that sounds, sending a "Hey" or "Wyd" often results in a boring, short, agonizing conversation. Here are a couple of alternatives that I, personally, would have much more fun responding to.

1. What is your favorite movie?

Who knows, maybe this could result in a movie date!

2. Panera Bread or McAlister's Deli? 

Bonding over bread bowls? Sign me up!

3. If you were a bird, what type of bird would you be?

As weird as this question is, it could give you something crazy to talk about, and you may find something out about their personality!

4. Cereal first or milk first?

This may make or break the relationship, so tread lightly.

5. Is ketchup a smoothie?

Think about it... I mean really think about it.

6. Who is your favorite Big Time Rush member?

Oh Oh Ohhhh Ohhhhhhhh.

7. Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts?

There IS a right answer here, ladies and gents.

8. Netflix or Hulu?

This will hopefully lead you to bond over your love for "The Office!"

9. If you were the president what would your first action be?

Obama and Joe

Side note: I miss JoeBama so much.

10. What are your top 5 favorite Vines?

It's frickin bats!

11. How do you feel about breakfast for dinner?

Pancakes all day, err'day!

12. Team Marvel or Team DC?

My answer would be Marvel.

13. What movie makes you ugly cry?

If they say "no movie" then they're lying.

14. If you got a tattoo what would it be?

Getting inked = commitment, ladies!!

15. If you had a pet llama, what would you name it?

Some great options include: Drama llama, Me llama, Obama llama, etc.

16. What's the scariest dream you've ever had?

For those who love spooky season!!

17. Do you like the Green Bay Packers?

Hint: if they say "yes" make sure to ghost them ASAP.

18. Coffee or tea?

19. Where is your dream vacation spot?

20. What is your favorite conspiracy theory?

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
