10 Ways To Get Beer Money From Your Parents

As college students, let's face it when we have $20 in our bank account we feel like millionaires. However, we know we would rather live off the dollar menu at McDonalds and save that $20 for a bottle of liquor/shots at the bar.

Sometimes we have those weeks where we go out four times and well that $20 is gone after one night, so we make the attempt to face our parents and ask them to float us a loan. If your parents won't budge to give you some extra cash maybe one of these excuses will help you out.

10. We ran out of toilet paper and paper towels in our house.

...cause that really is the worst situation you could be in.

9. I have to buy another book for my biology class, we need to have it by Monday.

The story of my life, rather spend half that money on tequila and pitcher night.

8. I'm sick, I need to go to CVS to buy some NyQuil and Mucinex.

The fifth product I'll need to buy is a bottle of wine obviously.

7. It's my roommates birthday, we are all pitching in to buy her "dinner."

When we say dinner we mean drinking our calories.

6. I need gas money.

Even though you don't have a car at school.

5. I need groceries, do you want me to go hungry?

Let's admit, all your parents care about while your at school is if you're eating and doing homework.

4. I didn't have the chance to attend work study, because of my 10 page paper—and I got an A on it.

But you actually got a B+, but it's basically the same thing in your mind.

3. I've been in the library all week, I just need one glass of wine (or a bottle).

Lies, lies, lies, forget the library give me the wine.

2. "Mom said you would"


Mom always said "ask your father."

1. Always resort to dad.

ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS.

Tell us what excuses work for you in the commente below.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
