The 6 Essentials You'll Need For A Perfect St. Patrick's Day

Hello my lovelies! I hope everyone is ready to party for St. Patrick's Day! Whether you're having an early celebration like a party or a parade, here are a few things you might need on the "lucky" day:

I always love to dress up and let my inner Leprechaun shine! Here's an awesome trio that perfectly suits the theme of green and gold! Mary Kay has one of the largest varieties of shadows that are so pigmented and very creamy. I love this trio especially in the shade Earth Bound. Mary Kay has a huge collection of makeup on their website and I love all of their makeup.

Everybody needs a pot'o'gold right? This Maybelline Color Tattoo in Bad to the Bronze is an amazing creme eye shadow. I love using it on as a base and I can usually get away with only wearing this as my eye makeup. You can easily blend it out (I like using my fingers). This creme eye shadow never creases and does really last a very long time. Perfect for a parade or party!

I also love painting my nails gold for St. Patrick's Day. This Miracle Gel by Sally Hanson really is a miracle in a bottle. I really love the way it lasts and looks on my nails!

To finish off your St. Patty's Day look, you need to add some green shamrocks to your pretty cheeks! After using the NYX Powder Blush in Terra Cotta to really give off a golden glow, use some green face paint and go nuts. Then top it all off with a bit of lipstick to make your look amazing!

A family tradition of mine every St. Patrick's Day is too not only have a little roast with cabbage and potatoes, for dessert we celebrate with our own, homemade Shamrock Shakes! Anyone can make these!

Ingredients:

-Green River (any other type of green/lime soda will do)

-Vanilla Ice cream or Lime Sherbet

-A Cup and a Straw

All you have to do is take a couple scoops of ice cream and pour some soda into the glass! So easy, right? Add a final touch with a cute straw (I couldn't really find a cute enough one haha).

I hope you guys have a great and safe holiday coming up and enjoy any type of way you're celebrating! How do you guys celebrate St. Patrick's Day? Leave comments below!

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

You can't say that no one told you life was gonna be this way.

friends

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
