The semester is almost over. That means it's time to clean out the fridge. And what better way to do that than combine containers of food into meals that you can enjoy (and not spill on your study guides).

Here are three super easy, in-the-zone meals I will definitely make during finals week.

1. Breakfast - Granola

Mix some chewy bars into Greek yogurt and it actually can be a good bowl of granola. It's quick and easy, and I can have a few spoonfuls even if I oversleep (or undersleep, honestly).

2. Lunch - Stir fry

This stir fry is nothing fancy. Just boil some ramen (or really any other kind of pasta) and add some chopped veggies and meat. I like chicken for this dish. What really makes it stir-fry is to mix in some sauce. For chicken, a rich barbecue sauce adds a lot of flavor. Make a few servings worth, and that's a great lunch.

3. Dinner - Thanksgiving returns

I have boxes of stove-top stuffing in my pantry. Those are great to make for dinner. I didn't bring any turkey from home, but if you have instant mashed potatoes and some leftover gravy, you can do a vegetarian Thanksgiving leftover dish. And it takes five minutes. What more could a hungry college student ask for?


I will definitely try these over the next week. I just hope I'm as confident about the finals as I am about this yummy food.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
