Who wants to spend $25 on lunch when you don’t even get to enjoy your meal? During your breaks during the school day you are usually either rushing to your next class or hustling back to the library to finish an assignment. And hello?! We are college students which means a large majority of us are on a budget. Dining in Manhattan can get very expensive, very quickly. This is guide to a few places around campus that are relatively cheap, but still majorly tasty.

Banter

169 Sullivan St,

New York, NY 10012

Banter is one of my favorite places to go on campus when I actually have time to sit down and eat at a resturant. This casual cafe’s warm interior and delicious food are perfect for when you want to grab a few friends in between classes for a quick catch-up. Also, you can get the perfect snap for your next instagram post with Banter's colorful cuisine.

Recommended: Nutella French Toast ($14) or Bacon and Egg Roll ($10)


Eva’s Kitchen

11 W 8th St

New York, NY 10011

This is one of my consistent go-tos when I am in a rush. The food is healthy and their are plenty of options for vegans and vegetarians. After a workout at 404, this is the spot to get a good wrap or salad post-workout.

Recommended: Falafel with Baba Ghanoush Sandwich ($7.45) or Mediterranean Burrito ($10.00)


Pokée

121 W 3rd St,

New York, NY 10012

One of the best Pokée spots in the city is nestled in Greenwich Village. Pokée can often be found with crowded lines, but is often quick and well worth any of the waiting time. This is the perfect spot if you are looking for something healthy that you can take on the go!

Recommended: Fifty 50 Bowl (Regular $10.75) or Tofu Bowl (Regular $10.75)


Tue Thai

3 Greenwich Ave

New York, NY 10014

This no-frills thai restaurant will leave you feeling satisfied. For only $9.09 everyday between the time of 11:30am to 4pm, you can enjoy their lunch special which includes salad or soup, drink, appetizer and entrée. It isn’t too busy around lunchtime, meaning that it is optimal spot if you are on a tight schedule.

Recommended: Tamarind Sesame Chicken ($9.09, apart of the special) or Massaman Curry ($9.09, apart of the special)


Goa Taco

79 Delancey St.,

New York, NY 10002

The fusion of Mexican and Indian food sounds like an odd combination, but is extremely delicious! These are not traditional tacos, but pack a punch when it comes to flavor. These tacos are unbelievably filling and are only $7! You must try Goa Taco if you find yourself wandering East Village during one of your breaks!

Recommended: Slow Roasted Pork Belly (7.35) or Paneer Cheese (7.35)


Happy eating!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
