…and the smell of delicious cookies

Follow the Light of the Moon

Insomnia Cookies, founded in 2003 at the University of Pennsylvania, is a bakery chain made by college students, for college students. Actually starting in a tiny dorm, there are now over 130 locations and still more to come across the country, as everyone loves a nice, fresh-baked cookie at 2 AM. Another reason why Insomnia Cookies is so popular is their late-night hours and consistent delivery service, with cookies still hot and ready at all hours! Not limited to just cookies, they also offer cookie cakes, brownies, and some milk to dip it in if you so desire.

Insomnia Cookies is a small brand becoming bigger each year, but what's so charming is the small store it requires. Needing only a kitchen, the store on Court Street in Athens, Ohio is practically a hole in the wall. Serving hundreds a day, you'll often have to wait for some fresh baked cookies but it's entirely worth it. Gooey deliciousness, there are a variety of flavors to choose from which begs you to come back and try them all. Popular flavors being triple chocolate chunk and s'mores, it's good to get them in advance before partying for a nice treat to top off drunk munchies.

Not overpriced, the light of the cookie-turned moon is a delight to many stumbling back to their respective greens or apartment. Friendly service and staff, it's a chill environment in their small abode. When you bite into an Insomnia cookie, you're overwhelmed with the warm goodness that is a fresh cookie and the deliciousness of their signature recipe, because these aren't your mama's cookies. Not by a long shot.

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.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
