“I hate the way you tie your shoes and the way you wear your plaid. I hate the way you blowout your hair. I hate it when you stare. I hate your dumb little sweaters and the way you think you are better. I hate you so much that it makes me sick. But mostly I hate the way I don’t hate you, not even close, not even a little bit, not even at all.” -10 Things I Hate About 90’s Fashion

Many students dream their whole lives of studying abroad. Presenting opportunities to travel, immerse oneself in unique cultures and meet new people, studying abroad can be a life-changing experience. Sadly, the COVID-19 pandemic changed lots of plans as students were sent home in Spring 2020 and universities canceled future programs. While the pandemic has complicated the traditional study abroad experience, it is still very possible to have a worthwhile semester abroad.
You may have dissed crocheting in the past because it was your grandma’s favorite pastime hobby (maybe her only hobby), but don’t make that same mistake twice.
Sweatpants and a button down shirt may have been your professors' pandemic outfit of choice, but with reintroduction of in-person classes, professors are once again showing off their personal style.
Many of us growing up online have heard the famous line, “Gossip Girl here, your one and only source into the scandalous lives of Manhattan’s elite.” Some of us have even wished to experience the drama and chaos that is Gossip Girl. But what would you do if suddenly Gossip Girl was no longer exposing the just wealthy elite of New York, but rather the students, faculty and staff of UofSC? Would you add fuel to the fire and send in gossip to be viewed by peers? Or would you rather be the Gossip Girl, front and center with the rumors, scandals and inside scoop of your community? Any fantasy can be accomplished with the resurgence of the app YikYak: an anonymous posting app that connects you with your local community.
We, as a society, have finally reached a point where we truly understand the cure to a horrible hangover is a lot of sleep and a lot of water, but those are no fun. Sure, some people have their go-to greasy fast food breakfast or cleansing smoothie, but no one I’ve met has had some kooky mixture they stand by. Growing up, there were always those terrible scenes in movies where someone would make a concoction of hot sauce, grease and a raw egg and call it the elixir of life, and I always wondered if they actually did anything. In the name of science, I decided to find the top three oddest, grossest hangover cures and see if they do anything.
Whether you hear Harry Styles’ and think of his boy-band-era filled with prep school styled blazers and skinny jeans, or his sheer ruffled sleeved suit and single pearl earring while hosting the 2019 Met Gala, Styles’ most praised asset continues to be his style.
It may seem like everyone is spending a daily meal swipe at the Chick-Fil-A, but more students than ever before are following plant-based diets. Plant-based doesn’t necessarily mean that someone is vegan or vegetarian, but that plants are the focal part of their diet. According to a survey by College Pulse, 14% of college students are plant-based. This is almost four times the percentage of plant-based adults.
There are a select few things in life that just hit different: the sound of rain whilst vibing, flipping to the soft side of a pillow and that first sip of matcha tea. The drink is a Japanese green tea variant that takes young tea leaves and grinds them into a fine powder. When prepared in drink form, it has a smooth vegetal yet sweet taste with faint chalky undertones. The unfathomable wonder that is matcha tea ascends the planes of comfort and finds itself seated at the zen throne.

With the way this year is progressing, it looks like everyone is going to spend at least one birthday in the middle of a global pandemic. However, while it definitely puts a damper on some of the more exciting 21 birthday ragers, there are still fun ways to ring in your new age. Whether you're looking for a fancy socially-distanced brunch or just a quick slice of cake, there’s something safe out there for everyone’s comfort level.
Believe it or not, Valentine’s Day isn’t the only made-up holiday we can celebrate in February. Valentine's Day endorses buying cards, candy and overpriced flowers for your sweetheart, but what about those of us that don't have one? It's unfair to expect us to miss out on the fun. Since we are celebrating our significant other, we might as well celebrate our significant others too. Galentine’s Day started out as just an episode of "Parks and Recreation", but has become a movement for "lady friends" everywhere. It takes the pressure away from those of us that aren't in a relationship, but still allows us to celebrate the lovey-dovey month of February. Here are some fun ways you can celebrate this holiday on Feb. 13:
Dread it. Run from it. Valentine’s Day still arrives. It seems to be a fact that the more celebrated a holiday is, the more miserable we as a people can get. Which I totally get, and to some level have even accepted, but I am not the majority. This list is dedicated to those who fail to internalize the utter dread of being single on Valentine’s day and subsequently come up with reasons why they’re “okay” with their relationship status on the one day it seems to matter. This list is the comfort, the intervention and the all-around kick in the butt to get back in the arena this year. Interested yet? Let’s proceed.
