The New Season of American Horror Story Is Finally Here
ytimg.com

On September 14, 2016, FX's highly-anticipated sixth season of "American Horror Story" finally aired. Over the course of several months, Creator and Executive Producer Ryan Murphy had fans going insane with questions on what the new season would be about. Of course, the newest trend in media is the element of surprise, so the theme of season six was kept quiet up until the season premiere.

"American Horror Story: My Roanoke Nightmare" is certainly a season that is going to change "American Horror Story" forever. The format received a complete facelift, as the season will be told as an actual story.

Roanoke is set in 2016 in North Carolina. The entire season is set up as a documentary titled My Roanoke Nightmare and stars Shelby Miller, husband Matt, and Matt's sister, Lee. However, a twist in this season shows "dramatic scenes" that use actors, which in return are cast members of "American Horror Story". This is a completely different format that will definitely need some getting used to as the season progresses.

So far, we know that Lily Rabe and Sarah Paulson are playing Shelby Miller, Cuba Gooding, Jr and Andre Holland are playing Matt Miller, and Adina Porter and Angela Bassett are playing Matt's sister Lee.

Even though there has only been one episode, it's clear that this season is taking the horror aspect to the next level. The episode had me on the edge of my seat, as the scenes were significantly scarier than any other season thus far. The documentary-like season has potential of getting even scarier, as guest stars such as Kathy Bates, Lady Gaga, Matt Bomer, and Finn Wittrock join the main cast.

Don't forget to tune into "American Horror Story: My Roanoke Nightmare" every Wednesday at 10:00 PM only on FX!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

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!
