7 Reasons Costco Is Every College Kid's Real Bae

In This Article:

A few weekends ago, my friends and I took a trip to Costco. I had never seen a group of college kids become so excited about something. That's when I realized that Costco is a very special place for college students.

1. It's Like Disneyland

Walking through those doors, and seeing the world of possibility before you, is like entering the gates of the Magic Kingdom for the first time.

2. Buying In Bulk

College kids go through food and anything else extremely quickly. Giving them the chance to buy in mass amounts for cheap prices makes everything all that much better.

3. Free Food

Who doesn't love walking around Costco and sampling the different products they have to offer.

4. The Prices 

We're all broke. Plus, there's nothing better than the feeling of buying a dozen large croissants for $8.

5. People Watching

So, shopping isn't for everyone. Take a seat on some of the comfortable lounge furniture Costco is selling and sit back and watch a show.

6. Wandering 

Getting off of campus for a few hours is already a bonus. Why not walk up and down every aisle and look at every product offered there.

7. The Books


For book lovers, the prices of the novels there will blow your mind. There's nothing like looking at your favorite hardcover book and seeing it marked down to almost half its price.

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.
