5 Apps College Students Shouldn't Live Without
Digital Trends

As college students who are attached at the hip to our phones, we think we have everything we need, right? Here are five apps that every college student should have:

1. Mint. (iOS + Android)

Ever feel like you're not able to keep track of your spending? Well, think again, Mint keeps all your spending up to date and puts your purchases into categories!

2. SparkNotes. (iOS)

SparkNotes provides study guides for almost every book as well as chapter summaries for you to brush up on your studies. (I'm sure we've all heard of SparkNotes, but did you know it was an app?)

3. EasyBib. (iOS + Android)

Need help with building a citation? EasyBib is the one stop for any format of citation you need help with. It also allows you to email your citation list or scan the barcode on a book to create a citation in APA, or Chicago style,for example.

4. Spotify. (iOS, Android, Blackberry, Amazon)

Music. Everyone needs music, right? Check out Spotify, even if you already know what it is. Any music app will do, but this is one of my favorites along with Apple Music.

5. Notability. (iOS)

If you ever forget a pencil and some paper to jot down notes in class, this app will come in handy. It gives you the option to write notes, record, annotate PDF's, as well as add links and photos. It definitely comes in handy on those days you rush out the door and forget your materials.

As a college student, these are very helpful to me and hopefully you too! Check them out, maybe you'll get good use out of them!

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
