Every College Students' Guilty Pleasure

Sometimes you need to improvise.

Every College Students' Guilty Pleasure

In college, you have to make things work. You're not at home anymore with your parents helping you all the time with simple things. Therefore, college students have to become creative in order to survive the "almost" real world.

1. Sleeping in as late as you possibly can

Class isn't until 9? you have until 8:55 to sleep in, you'll make it on time.

2. Repeating outfits

That's what's so great about have MWF classes and TTH classes. The people in you Tuesday classes have no idea you wore that outfit yesterday to your Monday classes.

3. And also re-wearing clothes before washing them

Let's be honest, you don't even remember the last time you washed those sweatpants or that sweatshirt.

4. Constantly going out to eat

Every college town has a ton of different fast food restaurants to eat at, and it's great to get away from the dining hall food every once in a while.

5. Binge watching Netflix series

Grey's, Shameless, American Horror Story, Bates Motel... The list is endless.

6. Buying things at the Campus Store

College merchandise is so thrilling to buy, plus they are always so comfy.

7. Stealing cups and forks from the Dining Hall

Now you'll never have to worry about eating your leftovers with a plastic fork.

8. Drinking ridiculous amounts of coffee

Coffee for breakfast, lunch and dinner and then all the ties in between.

9. Procrastinating like pros

"I'll do my project today... Maybe tomorrow..."

10. Buying more and more sweatpants to wear to class

The best way to get through class is being comfy while doing it.

11. And also wearing cabin socks and slippers to class

This is probably the best duo/combination in the world, there's no debate about it.

12. Listening to throwback songs while studying

It's 2017, but we are all still jamming out to songs that are almost 20 years old.

13. Easy Mac'n'Cheese

Closest things to gold we can get.

14. The Dominoes that's open until 3 am

We should all dedicate a part of our lives to the faithful dominoes delivery guys that show up to our dorms at 2:45 in the morning just to bring us a pasta bread bowl.

Living in college can definitely be easy as long as you make the most of what you have. Getting away with things is easily if you just improvise a little bit.

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.
