In school you are always going to have those people who are all about school spirit and those who could care less. This leads to some arguments and often ruins part of the fun for most.

People with spirit want to have fun and live a carefree week. Fun things are usually happening and majority of people want to be involved with these once in a life time experiences. The events range from something mild such as wear your school colors day, to something extreme such as Meredith College's cornhuskin'. Enjoy the fun while it last because once this chance is gone its gone.

Now as for those people who don't really have any school spirit, try to find some. It may not be your thing because you were raised in a calm environment, but it is a ton of fun to cut up and let loose. Trust me, do it while you can because this chance and opportunity will be gone faster than you know it. And in addition, when you are a person who dosent get involved, you are ruining the fun for everyone else and they will be mad at you or shun you till the festivities are over.

School spirit is so important when you are young. No matter who you, you need school spirit to enjoy life. Take it from me. A quiet girl who doesn't talk much at all. I have learned to participate as much as possible to ensure that I have a little fun during my school year. Powderpuff football is one of the many things I have done in my school career to enjoy life, and I am planning on continuing to be involved as much as possible before I graduate.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair
Tumblr

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
