8 Best Snacks For Your College Dorm

The college budget is no joke.

8 Best Snacks For Your College Dorm

Being in college now, I’ve learned how hard it is to budget your money. How much is okay to spend on clothes or food or going out on weekends? I learned that sometimes dinner just isn’t an option when you have $13 in your bank account and that snacks can really be your saving grace. So, I decided to make a list of the best snacks for when you’re flat broke and in need of some junk food.

1. Goldfish

There isn’t anything not to love about Goldfish. You can never just have one either, so soon enough you’ve binge watched an entire season of "Grey’s" and you’ve finished the entire bag of Goldfish! Congrats!

2. Oreos

One will quickly turn into two, and two turns into an entire sleeve, you get the point. But they are beyond perfect for a drunken snack.

3. Microwaveable Popcorn

I could eat popcorn everyday. Well, I do eat popcorn every day. I’ve tricked myself into believing it’s not bad for me. (It wouldn’t be if I didn’t get the movie theatre butter kind.)

4. Fruit snacks

These are the healthiest things on the list, but once again I take it to the next level and buy Welch’s Fruit Snacks and eat 10 little bags. They’re just so good though, yanno?

5. Lay’s Potato Chips

Another great drunken snack, and another one of those things you definitely cannot just have one of! Go big or go home, right?

6. Any kind of cereal

I prefer dry cereal, specifically Cheerios, but if you’re into soggy cereal then get some milk and you’ve got yourself a nice little dinner.

7. Granola bars

Perfect for when you decided to sleep an extra 15 minutes and forego breakfast and a shower! Any granola bar is great to take on the road when you’re in a hurry.

8. Peanut butter

You can literally eat peanut butter with almost anything. Bread, pretzels, apples, and you can even just stick your whole hand in the jar if you’re about it. To each their own.

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.
