Congratulations! You are moving into your apartment to start another year of college! But what's that? You don't know how to cook?! Well, have no fear. These are the five easiest meals that even the worst cook can make in no time at all.

1. Easy Mac/Ramen

Possibly the easiest thing to make in an apartment when you're in a hurry. Just follow the instructions on the box or package and you're good to go.

2. An omelette

Not only a good source of protein, an omelette is also a fantastic way to eat lots of veggies. Scramble two eggs and put in a small pan. Let it cook flat then put cheese, bacon, and whatever else you want in there. Cover it with a lid and let it cook. When it's cooked, flip half of it so its folded in half. Let it cook a bit more then enjoy!

3. Pasta (and jarred sauce)

This is at the Ramen/Mac and Cheese level of difficulty. Just put some pasta in a pot of boiling water, wait until it's cooked, then drain the water. If you like sauce, open up a jar and dump it in a separate pan. Wait for the sauce to heat up then put it over the drained pasta. If you really want to be fancy, defrost some cut veggies or take some fresh ones and add them into the pasta. You could also add chicken for some protein. Put it on a plate and voila! You're done.

4. Salad

Making a salad just involves ripping up lettuce (or you could buy lettuce pre-ripped in a bag), dumping it into a bowl, and adding other veggies, chicken, cheese, and/or dressing to it. It's the easiest thing ever and super healthy to boot.

5. Take-Out Leftovers

If all else fails, just eat leftovers from another meal you made or take-out leftovers. Just A) make sure they're in fact your leftovers and B) make sure they haven't gone bad.

Happy eating and have a great year!

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
