YOU BE THE JUDGE!!!
Jay-Z might’ve brushed off Kanye’s stage bum-rush, but when it came to Lil’ MaMa’s ignorant move…he was not feeling it all. Despite putting on the mean grill and giving her the ill side-eye, Jay-Z kept his cool on stage. But backstage was a totally different story…
According to NYDailyNews, a backstage snitch claims,
“He went ballistic. He was screaming at the MTV producers about the lack of security. He apparently thought at first she was just a fan. Beyoncé finally calmed him down.”
5 ways to meet someone this fall: A back-to-school special
5 ways to meet someone this fall: A back-to-school special
Yes, you just spent nine hundred dollars on textbooks, but the girl at the cash register might want to date you!
By Caitlin Gray
The leaves are changing, the air is getting crisper - or if you go to school in Arizona, it’s dropping from 115 degrees to a cool 105, in any case, it’s back to school time. It’s a time for fresh starts, new classes, and, wouldn’t you know it, some amazing opportunities to meet some girls and guys! Let College News be your guide.
How to meet someone special this fall (I know meeting the partial cast of Twilight Comic-Con was also special, but we mean people at your school):
1. Reconnect with old flames
Absence makes the heart grow fonder, and, if summer was the culprit separating you from someone you like, the fall is the perfect time to re-establish a romance. Arrange a time to get together and “catch-up,” even if you sort of mean “hook-up” at the same time. Chances are, they are equally excited to see you again as well.
2. Introduce yourself to potential class crushes
Ah, the tradition of a new class, and a new crush. How many times did I scan the room for that special guy I would obsess over throughout the semester? Occasionally, obsession would turn into an actual real-life relationship!
I remember Jared, a super cute musician who I gawked at for weeks in our Linguistics class. It was actually called, “Morphology.” Somehow, I managed to become partners with him for a big project. We gave a presentation together, and then ended up dating for three racy, lip-locked months! You never know what a class crush could “morph” into. Sorry, bad joke.
3. BFF your new neighbors
There is nothing more fun in college than your house full of people becoming BFF’s with your neighbors’ house full of people. My two best friends, Willa and Michelle, lived in a house right next door to a bunch of guys. Everyone bonded at a back-to-school block party, and after a few years, and and a few Melrose Place moments, Willa and Michelle married Jake and Jeremy, two of the boys living in that house! Go ahead, borrow a cup of sugar, be bold, be neighborly!
4. Take advantage of back-to-school banter
Let’s say you are biding your time in the snaking, unreal, super-long line at the bookstore. That’s a perfect opportunity to start some small talk with the people around you. At the start of the school year, we are sharing so many common experiences - the nightmare of desperately trying to add an in-demand class, laughing out loud in a silent computer lab at the latest viral video, tripping over the crazy bricks in your school’s giant square. There are icebreakers all around you! You just have to be brave and take a chance to make that connection.
5. Crazy theme parties
When in doubt, throw a party. Now, it sounds dirty, but it was really meant to be funny, and it ended up being hilarious; my roommates and I threw a “two article of clothing party.” My roommate, Jesse, actually wore a pair of snake pants (borrowed from me) and a wig. I was just thinking about them the other day. I had to dress up for an ‘80s party and I wondered, “I did dry-clean those, right?”
Needless to say, I wore an alternative outfit rather than risk it. The point is, you can have a crazy party that ton of people, and potential dates, can talk about for years afterwards. Have a celebrity party, a Double Dare party, a historical Halloween party, whatever. Just get creative and live it up.
College years are some of the best years of our lives, and fall has to be one of the best seasons - especially for meeting someone special. Good luck and happy dating!
