11 Foods Your College Town Needs To Get That New York Already Has

If I had a genie, bringing these foods to my college town would be among some of my top wishes. When our school adapts to the incredible foodie culture, the days of stumbling back to our dorm rooms with plain cheese pizza will be a memory in the past. Until then, just drool over these pictures of food I've been lucky enough to eat lately.

1. Nutella Stuffed Donuts

You know what’s better than eating nutella from a spoon while binge watching your favorite TV show? Eating nutella within a donut while binge watching your favorite TV show. These donuts are the only things America should be running on.

2. S’mores in a Jar

Can’t build a fire in your dorm room? No problem! Enjoy the amazing summertime snack on the comfort of your own futon -- in the ever-trendy mason jar!

3. S’mores on a stick

What’s better than s’mores in a jar? S’mores on a stick! New York City is famous for their frozen s’more on a stick! There is chocolate, ice cream, graham cracker, oh my! After a late night, you’ll be craving s’more.

4. Cheese stuffed pizza crust

If you’re a college student you know these two words very well: Cheesy Bread. Now imagine this cheesy bread covered with pizza sauce and even more cheese! This pull-apart pizza has cheesy bread as the crust. I know. Game changer.

5. Ramen burgers

Do you ever find yourself reaching for the last plastic Styrofoam container of ramen noodles in your college pantry? Gross. Once you’ve had a ramen burger, you’ll never go back. Sorority girl's favorite types of men are ramen.

6. Real wonton soup

I’m not talking the typical late night egg roll and wonton soup that tastes like water. I’m talking real wonton soup. New York City is the place to find it, and you’re missing out big time in your college town.

7. Rice Krispie ice cream sandwich

Snap, crackle, pop. These ice cream sandwiches are poppin’. Definitely better than the local cookie delivery thinking they are creative by putting a scoop of ice cream in between. Day or night, this ice cream sandwich would be on the top of my to-eat list.

8. Mac and Cheese with breadcrumbs

Mac and cheese is always a late night favorite, but when you add breadcrumbs and pimento cheese this becomes an all-day favorite. I know it’s cheesy, but this mac and cheese is grate! Did you get the pun? Grate? OK, well, at least I tried.

9. Soup dumplings

These dumplings are all that and dim sum! The dumplings pictured above are onion soup dumplings, but this city is filled with souper dumplings! You would love these dumplings soy much!

10. Churro-cone ice cream

Combining all of our favorite things: Mexican food and ice cream! What could be better? “Well, if the cone was filled with chocolate ganache…” Well, this churro ice cream is filled with chocolate ganache! This dessert is melt-in-your-mouth-delicious, but I don’t want to taco ‘bout how many calories are in this thing.

11. Lobster rolls

The best way to roll out of the semester would be to roll out with one of these. I can’t promise you it’s affordable, but I can promise you it’s delectable. Case closed. Bring in the dancing lobsters.

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.
