So, just wanted to let you guys know that this stupid One Month Challenge is officially cursed. When my sister gave up her penchant for junk food for a month, her and her bf broke up. Fast forward 2 challenges later, I broke up with my boyfriend, who was living with me and my roommate.

Your Ultimate Theme Party Survival Kit
There is one thing in life you don’t understand until you get into college (besides a cheap vodka hangover). And that one thing is theme parties. And the one thing you don’t understand about them is how amazing they are.
From CollegeFashion: How To Wear a Winter Vest
One of the best ways to battle the cold and look perfectly seasonal during winter is to wear a cozy, cold weather vest. Before you say anything, hear me out: There are ways to do so without a) looking like you’re about to go skiing, b) evoking images of the Marshmallow Man in Ghostbusters, or c) having people ask why you’re wearing a life preserver, like Marty McFly in Back to the Future.
Now Showing: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
Disclaimer: Many Harry Potter fans sit in the theater picking the movie apart in terms of being an accurate adaptation, but I believe the film should stand alone as a part of its own art form, which is first and foremost a film, not a book.

Gossip Cheat Sheet: Why Would You Cheat On Eva Longoria?!
We all know how quickly things happen in Hollywood, and this week is no exception. One day you’re happily married, the next day your husband is sexting other women. We all know how that is right?

Stop Hating On Liberal Arts Majors
As a senior in college, I’m scared to graduate. I’m terrified of turning my tassel because it’ll mean I’m leaving a world of over caffeinated classes, themed parties in Greek life, and apparently the opportunity to play competitive Quidditch . And like most of my generation, I might possibly find myself contributing to the nation’s economy by suddenly joining the unemployment rate.
10 Things NOT to Bring Up At Thanksgiving Dinner
So you’re going home for Thanksgiving. Clean clothes, fresh sheets, and comfort food? Wise choice, my friend, wise choice indeed. While you’re sitting ‘round the table giving thanks for the bountiful feast laid out before you, it might be best to omit these observances from your polite dinnertime conversation…
Budget Stylista: Winter White
As much as we want to deny it, if my frozen toes are any indication, winter is on its way. And with winter comes lots of dark, gloomy fashion. The black and gray sweaters, the dark jeans, the Uggs. Ugh. But why? Winter is a beautiful season – all that bright, sparkly white snow – so I say it’s time to trade those winter woes for winter whites.
WTF Friday: Most Confusing Message Ever
What were they smoking when they came up with this crackpot commericial for abstinence? No seriously. Does anyone really think that The Situation is a good spokesperson for anything, let alone anything involving smart sex decisions?
Robotripping, Four Loko, and Other Ridic Ways College Kids Get Messed Up
It’s not difficult to get messed up in college. Keg shells line frat house walls and liquor seems to flow freely from faucets, available whenever the time feels right. Yet, students continuously resort to more creative techniques to make their heads spin. Why?
Friday Faves: Biggest Bar Night of the Year. Nope! It’s Not Deja Vu
