Ten Trends and Phrases That I Just Don't Understand



Hey Friends!! What's up?
Today I am going to share a list of things that our society deems as "cool" but I just can't understand. These are the top ten things that make me cringe the most.

1. Lit. I don't get why a slang word needs to be shortened any more! Why? Just Why?
2. Dabbing. Don't even get me started on this one. Who came up with this anyways?
3. Fam: People started saying this at my school recently and I don't understand. I am not your family. Why do you call me fam? WE AREN'T EVEN RELATED!
4. The whole "Whip" and "Nay Nay" song/dance. No. Just No.
5. Planking. All I can say is that after a while, this is bound to get tiring. Am I right?
6. GIGANTIC Winged Eyeliner. #walklikeanegyptianforrealthough

7. Man Buns. Not a good look. On anyone. Ever.
8. Shift Dresses. I'm kind of back and forth on this one. I look absolutely awful in shapeless clothing but I do think that there are a select few people that can pull it off.
9. Music.ly: Just trust me when I say that you will regret it when you are older. What goes on the internet, stays on the internet.
10. Saying hello after seeing something cool over, and over, and over... Stop. Just Stop.

30 Things I Wish I Knew Before Starting High School

It is NOTHING like the movies.  Being super involved in sports isn't everything. If you want to be valedictorian, you need to decide 1st term of freshman year. You need a LOT  less  school supplies than you think you do.  Time flies A LOT faster than you think it will. Failing a class isn't the end of the world. If you don't go on a lot of dates, IT IS NOT THE END OF THE WORLD.  Find something that you love and stick with it. Don't be afraid to make new friends or lose old ones.  DO NOT MISS CLASS. 1 hour of missed class = 2 hours trying to catch up. If you have a hard time remembering your locker combination, write it in permanent marker on your hand. Keep it there until you can remember it.  Having a good teacher is better than having an easy teacher. Only rent a locker if you need one. I ended up spending $10 to rent a locker last year and never used it.  Don't use binders. They are heavy and take up a lot of space. Opt for a notebook and a folder

The Writings of Baby Julie | Installment #1

Hi Guys!  This past week, I have been sorting through old folders and files, trying to clean out my flash drive and I stumbled upon a bunch of old writing. I read this one and thought it was pretty good. It was from my English class when I was a freshman. Hope you like it! (And if you don't like it, don't tell me. This essay has little bits of my heart woven into it.) ~Julie ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- It's Okay to Cry by Julie Ackerson Purple skies of rain drenched my sorrowful soul as I watched the casket being lowered into the ground. The tightly woven tension crept through the chill morning air, threatening my ability to stay strong. Don't cry Julie, don't cry. I  listened to the people who spoke and held my tears through the whole program. I  looked around me and a tear began to arise in my eyes. I  could no longer hold it. The single tear slid down my face. I
