College girls are often running low on money, but it doesn't stop us from buying the following things...

1. Coffee

Despite the fact the fact that we have a Keurig, and plenty of pods for said Keurig, we still feel the need to try the newest fancy fall coffee drink out there.

2. Pizza

Losing all motivation to make anything else leads to pizza. The only problem is, the cost of a full-size pizza is hefty af.

3. Kombucha

Cheers to a $3+ bottled drink!

4. Chick-fil-A

Not the cheapest of chicken, but it gets us every time.

5. Halo Top

$5 a pint, yo.

6. Adding avocado or guacamole to anything 

Whether it's Subway or Chipotle, the avocado craze never ends. Even though it's an extra 2 bucks :/

7. Whipped cream 

Why you gotta do this to us, Tim Hortons?

8. Victoria's Secret underwear

The whole "7 for $27" thing never gets old.

9. New workout clothes

Even if Lululemon isn't your thing, you're bound to find a brand you're hooked on. What do they all have in common? TOO. EXPENSIVE.

10. Every "Soft & Sexy" shirt out there

Gotta have 'em. Otherwise you'll be hard and frumpy.

11. Acrylic nails

Once in a while, we have to get them. $30 to ruin your nails :/

12. The newest Anastasia Beverly Hills eyeshadow palette

It's somehow a necessity, even if you'll only use two colors.

13. Micellar water

This fancy stuff to take your makeup off costs way more than any other makeup remover.

14. Hulu

It's awesome, but to be honest, I still use Netflix more.

15. $100 or more on a trip to the hair salon 

Do we want a balayage? Yes. Can we really afford it? No.

16. Candles

This is especially relevant if you live the dorms and aren't even allowed to have candles :/

17.Girly books

The perfect complement to some coffee!

18. Flannels

Oh so cozy!!!

19. Thrifted band T-shirts

Or is just me?

20. Platform sneakers

Can a gal really ever have too many?

21. Glasses to drink out of that are actually glass

Lol, we're irresponsible and will just break them anyways.

22. Anything related to our sorority

Our excuse to buy every little thing is that it's to represent our house.

23. Throw pillows

We're just gonna "throw" them anyways so...

24. Dresses

Especially for formal--you know you could definitely wear a dress you've worn before, but you don't because there's just so many other ones out there.

25. Tattoos

I looooove them! Favorite thing ever! But at least $50 for even the tiniest ones :(

26. Juul pods

I don't have a Juul, but I imagine it gets price-y for those who do!

27. Face masks

Perfect way way to spend a gal night.

28. Water bottles

If you have a tendency to lose your water bottles a lot, this is an even bigger issue.

29. Waxing

Brows need to be fleeky!

30. Alcohol

For the 21+ college girls, opportunity is around every corner.

Who can relate? Yeah, me too. Want to order pizza tonight?

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.

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
