The Voices In His Head

It is 12:03am. Your phone lights up on your night stand... "iMessage." It's him. HIM. But, then, you ask yourself: Tonight, which version of him will I be receiving?

Sure, we, as women, conclude all sorts of things about men; yet, we never analyze why. Believe it, or not, men have voices in their heads, too. What voices?, you may ask. Well, do these ring any bells?

1. HER.

Every man has his "her." You know, that girl that he listens to, no matter the circumstance, who he once loved, but wronged her (or, she wronged him); so, they stay around for one another, simply because... I, actually, do not know the answer. She does not want him, but she does not want anyone else to have him, so, therefore, you do not get to have him.

2. The Bros (who they insist on putting "before hoes")

First of all, we are not hoes; we are grown ass women. Now, that we have that straight, let's talk "bros": They, actually, can give pretty stand up advice, depending on their culture and circumstance, but they will always favor the girl, who treats their "boy" well. So, treat him well, and you will get the bros votes.

3. Society

Society is the voice in his head you should fear the most. Society will always tell him that there is someone better out there; the only trouble is, she is in the Michelob Ultra commercial, the cover ofVogue, and well... Megan Fox. Society will be your biggest enemy, as you fight the battle of voices in his head.

4. Momma

Though men retreat from their mothers on the first-day college, her voice never leaves their minds. "Open the door for her;" "call her back;" "remember, a smile can go a long way;" "be honest with her." All good advice, yes; let's just, hope he chooses to honor his Momma and not rebel against her stealthy advice.

5. Himself

At the end of the day, no one lies their head down on his pillow, but himself. So, only he knows how he truly feels; however, this will be the meekest voice.

Ladies, as you battle all of the voices in the room with you and "him", remember: You can love someone and not want to be with them. You can often love someone for all of the reasons they are not like you. You cannot love someone, who you wish to spend all of your time with. All anyone really wants is more: more vodka, more love, more laughter. More. And the more you ask of him, the more the voices in his head will crescendo. Tread carefully.

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!
