15 Reasons Coconut Oil Is Simply The Best
@cocos.kh

Can we talk about coconut oil for a little bit? Whether you love it or you despise it, coconut oil is life changing. I know, I know, white girl alert. In all honesty, coconut oil has multiple uses! You can use it to cook, you can use it on your skin, you can use it on your teeth, and much more. Let's dig into it.

1. It is fantastic as a moisturize

Who doesn't like their skin to be nice and soft?

2. You can cook or bake with it

It is a healthy substitute for the oils!

3. It is a great makeup remover

Ok, all of you who wear makeup, this one is great. You rub a little on your face, and it removes with complete ease. No more scrub at that pesky lipstick!

4. You can use it a teeth whitener

This one sounds a little weird. It's true though!

5. Are you sick of Chapstick? Use it as a lip balm!

Coconut oil moisturizes your lips far better than the chapstick you will lose in a week.

6. You can even use it as a deodorant

Wanna be all natural? Give this a try!

7. It improves your digestion

Weird, right? Well, it is true.

8. Add it to your smoothie and get a boost of nutrients

You can't taste it, so why not?

9. Coconut oil makes a great gentle face wash

Are you sick of that drug store face wash? Find a "recipe" online and try it out!

10. Guess what... it can even clean your makeup brushes

Ok, ok, this might sound crazy, but coconut oil can clean your brushes better than you would think!

11. It even gets that pesky hair out of your hairbrush

We all know how annoying that hair is in our brushes. Who knows how long it's been there? Get out of the way with some coconut oil!

12. Oh no, someone has gum in their hair. Whip out that coconut oil!

We've been there before. Someone has to pull out the scissors as we weep. Our hair is now gone, and we must deal with it. Not anymore!

13. All out of laundry detergent? Coconut oil.

So you've run out of detergent and you're a broke student. Go grab that coconut oil out of your room!

14. You can use it as a shaving cream

Ladies, our flower scented, girly, light and fluffy shaving cream seems to cost $100. Not anymore! Use the oil!!

15. And best of all- it helps our little friends A.K.A our pets

Help your little pupper or kitty out by rubbing a little coconut oil on their skin!

With all of that being said, go get yourself some coconut oil! it is great and could quite possibly be declared as an essential part of your daily life.

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.
