Student Takes Christmas Tree Twitter Challenge and Regrets it Immediately
While most college students are preparing for final exams, 20 year old University of Alabama student, Kelsey Hall started a Twitter challenge for herself. Kelsey tweeted a photo of herself in Christmas tree costume last Saturday. She captioned the photo, “1,000 retweets and I’ll wear this to all my classes for the rest of the semester.”
