The University of New Hampshire is known for having good food in their dining halls. I'm not going to deny that it is good, but after a while, it can get boring eating similar things all of the time.

Luckily, I've created this list of food hacks for when you feel like giving up on the dining hall!

1. Paninis

No need to wait for grilled cheese night! Make grilled cheese, or any toasted sandwich, by using the panini press.

2. Ice Cream Sandwich

When it is ice cream night at the dining halls, put a scoop of ice cream between two cookies to make an ice cream sandwich.

*Pro-tip: Roll the ice cream sandwich in chocolate chips, sprinkles or Oreo crumbles to make it ascetically pleasing like in the picture above!

3. Trail Mix

You can make trail mix by combining pretzels from the sandwich bar with dried fruit form the salad bar with chocolate and raisins from the ice cream toppings and whatever cereal you want. Customize it exactly the way you like!

4. Bagel Pizza

While they may be in different parts of the dining hall, there is almost always bagels, cheese, and sauce available. Microwave it and you have a mini pizza!

5. Warm Cookies

Who doesn't love a warm chocolate chip cookie? You can have them anytime you want if you warm them up using the microwaves in the dining halls.

6. Quesadilla

Combine veggies and cheese from the salad bar in a tortilla and put it in the panini press to make a quesadilla!

7. Sandwich & Salad Bars

Salad

I'm including these because I don't think many people realize that you can make your own sandwich and/or salad anytime.

8. Apple & Peanut Butter

Cut up an apple and add some peanut butter to your plate for a healthy snack or a protein-filled dessert.

*Pro-tip: You can do this with other fruits too!

9. Sparkling Juice

You can make sparkling juice by adding soda water to any of the juices!

Enjoy!

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.
