As a college student, I don’t think I’ve been this perpetually poor since I bought my Game Boy Advanced 10 years ago. And after a summer of living on my own, no dining hall included, my wallet really felt the burn—a stinging, 3rd degree, need-medical-attention-now burn. It was time to get real, and instead of begging my mom for account transfers every other day, I instead looked to see where I could save money. Here are 10 of the most useful student discounts this side of the mountain of college debt:

1) Amazon Prime Student

There are no ends to Prime’s glory. You want toilet paper in

two days? You got it. You want to watch Sex and The City until the sunrise? You got it. For $50 rather than $100, you can reap all the benefits Amazon has to offer.

2) UNiDays


Sign up for UNiDays and you enter a world of hundreds of discounts—Apple, ASOS, Missguided, Express and so on—the sign up is free, and so are the smiles when you see all the money that can go toward Arbor Mist rather than a new interview outfit.

3) Sam's Club Student Discount

Go in with a few friends, and get more Tide Pods than you’ll ever need. Also, if you don’t feel like making the plunge yet know your parents have a card, you can use theirs temporarily (for free) while in store.

4) Adobe

Act now and you can get it for $15.99 (s/o to Black Friday) or wait and get it for $19.99. Either way, you are saving stacks on stacks from the regular price of $39.99.


5) Madewell

When buying a scarf can cost you $50 dollars, a 15% discount can mean the difference between a ridiculous and somewhat-justified purchase.


6) Kate Spade

Another 15%, another dollar. Go ahead get the phone case AND the planner.

7) Spotify Premium

Half price for one of the greatest luxuries there ever was—to skip through as many songs as you want without having to listen to ad for Strayer University.

8) Hulu

Although they technically don’t have a discount, you can have a month trial and suspend billing for up to three months—not too bad when your bank is sending you insufficient fund texts.

9) Chipotle

Get a free drink with your student ID, so at least you don’t have feel bad when you fill up a water cup with lemonade.

10) The New Yorker

Educate yourself and look worldly by paying six dollars for 12 weeks’ worth of the best writing and cartoons known to man.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
