Once you’ve hit your sophomore or junior year of college and have decided to ditch the meal plan, you’ll need to buy your own food to stock the fridge. I don’t know how to cook many things, mainly because when it comes to food, I don’t have the patience to sit around waiting for it.

I know that many other college students are in the same annoying predicament — sick of dining hall food, but too lazy to actually cook. Therefore, I can guarantee that all of us, in our attempt to adult, will live off of the same 10 or so items.

1. Frozen chicken strips

What would any of us do without these, honestly? You can easily nuke them in the microwave, and they taste amazing.

2. Slightly burnt quesadillas

We probably got sidetracked and forgot to flip it over, so we'll have to accept the fact that it's a little burnt.

3. Microwaveable Ricearoni

It's easy, and it almost tastes like a gourmet meal. What more could you want?

4. Eggs in any form

We're always trying to justify eating eggs for every meal by saying, "I ate them two different ways! Scrambled and fried!"

5. Salads with whatever random produce you have

I don't even know what the actual definition of a salad is. But if it has lettuce it counts, right?

6. Boxed macaroni and cheese

Even if it's just boxed, it totally makes you feel like a chef to whip up some of this cheesy goodness.

7. Green smoothies

You wanna know how healthy I feel when I blend spinach and frozen fruit and drink it? Very.

8. Oatmeal

Sometimes it's boring, but it's easy. And you can always add any fruit to it that you need to get rid of.

9. Ramon noodles with a kick

Wanna spice up some cheap noodles? Just add hot sauce!

10. Frozen pizza

As long as, it's thin crust it's good for you, right?

If you can relate to living off of these foods, you're not alone. Someday we'll figure it out. But meanwhile, I'll be filling my tortillas with random vegetables and chowing down.

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.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
