There have been some trends I can get on board with; leggings with dresses, the big shift to online shopping, honey, and other fads I hope can stay alive and well. However, there are some which are as pointless as a broken pencil tip. As the novelty of 2017 is coming to an end, I hope these 8 trends find a place in our memories... but nowhere else.

Wedding season is here and has actually come early this year. Usually, I can make it to the end of March, beginning of April before I start seeing happy couples, sparkling rings, and curly script e-vites fogging up my social media outlets. This year decided that love cannot wait.

Hummus, according to Wikipedia, is a Levantine and Egyptian food dip or spread made from cooked, mashed chickpeas or other beans, blended with tahini, olive oil, lemon juice, salt, and garlic. Now from that description, it might not seem like it would be that tasty, which is something I thought until I was about 20 years old. However, do not let that stop you from trying hummus because it is scrumptious.  Especially with crackers or pita chips.

I've looked the same since I was 12 years old. Not like a little alike or the same hairstyle (trust me I go through some crazy hairstyles) but I legitly look like I'm 12. Which really is fine and I typically would think nothing of it... if it wasn't for the constant reminder that I look so young.

This topic has been on my mind a lot lately. In fact, so much so that I've it's been leaking into the conversations I have with my friends. I didn't grow up in Utah, however, I did grow up in the LDS (Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints) church. So I am what is considered a "Mormon." And in my personal opinion, Utah is the hardest place to be a Mormon.

I love video games.  I love the adventure aspect, leveling up, the stories that emerge, the world I help create, the characters I grow to know and the music which envelopes each new pocket of digital reality.

Do you hear that?  The swirling of coffee, the lights flicking in the late night hours, the twitching of students as they shuffle quickly through their notes they prepared that morning... That's right, it's midterms. Now in this season of tested material, there are two types of college students.  The first, study.  The second, don't.  Whichever you fall into, midterms bring the same thing to all: STRESS. So here are five ways to help handle the stress.

We get it. College. The highs are also the lows in a weird way, up is down, down is up. There are moments when you get to an exam and ask yourself, "am I even in this class?" We have the 12 memes that will make you say, "same." Remember when your professor stressed that the $300 textbook was absolutely necessary to pass the class?  Lies.  Just a bunch of expensive lies.

I feel like I haven't been doing quality writing.  Not that I haven't been writing, because I have.  Between school work and Her Campus, I've actually been writing a lot.  Maybe the increase in writing is why I feel... Dissatisfied with it.  I want to write things worth reading, and that's stressful.
