Not to be a millennial, but avocados are bomb. They're versatile, creamy, and packed full of healthy fats and nutrients. But don't be fooled - there's a lot more to them than guacamole. Here are seven ways you can swap an avocado into your daily treats—and avocadon't judge them by their looks.

1. Avocado toast

This one's a classic. Scoop out some green and spread it on a crunchy piece of toast and you have a yummy and nutritious breakfast or snack. Add toppings at your discretion.

2. Avocado with seasoning (whatever you have!)

My personal fav for this is Everything But The Bagel blend from Trader Joes. Just like it sounds, it's the yummy seasoning on the outside of an everything bagel. Slice an avocado in half, sprinkle a little on, and all you need is a spoon and you're good to go. Buy the blend here and go on your merry way.

3. Baked egg in an avocado

People make some really weird faces when I bring this one up. But I promise: it's so good and so good for you. Scoop out the pit of the avocado, crack an egg in the hole, and place it in the oven until the egg looks done. Top with salt and whatever else you like for a delicious and filling breakfast or snack.

4. Avocado ice cream

I know, I know. It sounds (and looks) really weird. But I promise it's tasty. With only a handful of ingredients other than avocados, it's pretty simple and much healthier than your typical frozen treat. Here's a good recipe to keep on hand.

5. Avocado and tuna

Another recipe of simple swaps to make a classic tastier and healthier. Just mash an avocado in with the tuna instead of mayonnaise and you've got a fun twist on everyone's favorite lunch.

6. Avocado pasta

This one lets you play around with a classic alfredo for something a little lighter. Mash some avocado with lemon juice, garlic, and basil, and you have a savory sauce that's packed full of nutrients.

7. Avocado brownies

And dessert to cap it all off. Not only does this make for a denser and fudgier brownie than the classics, but it also turns the sweet vegan, too. Swap the eggs for half an avocado and you won't even be able to tell the difference.

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.
