I went through a phase in seventh grade where I would wear ponchos and Ed Hardy apparel weekly, and I also ate at a sketchy Asian buffet last month. What I’m trying to say is that sometimes I make very questionable decisions. Whether the poor decisions revolve around unfortunate fashion choices or what […]
Five things you ask yourself during the last weeks of the semester: 1. Why do six page papers happen to good people? 2. So what’s the lowest acceptable grade I can get on the final to still pass this class?3. How late is Del Taco open?4. Will anyone notice that I’ve worn these jeans for eight […]
I used to hold my breath every time the Walmart cashier would swipe my debit card. I was beyond broke for my first two years at Dixie State University. I was constantly driving around with my gaslight on, paying for coffee in dimes and refusing to buy books for school. Luckily, now I’m older, wiser […]
I’ve had a turbulent relationship with an object that sits on my bathroom floor. I’ve praised this thing, despised it, been terrified of it; I’ve had everything but a healthy relationship with the bathroom scale.

You are not the biggest pumpkin spice latte fan, but the Starbucks barista insisted. 3. Staying in. Who needs socializing when there’s sweats and Netflix? 4. Holiday decoration.

Their eagerness tends to scare people. 2- The people who have no idea what’s going on. “Which building is the Gardner again?” 3- The people who are just trying to survive.
