You know they'll never really be good for you, but gosh darn if you don't miss them like a ghost misses saying "boo" at all other times of the year.

10.  Toblerone Fun Size

i.makeagif.com

Per Fun Size bar: 66 calories, 3.6 g fat (1 g saturated), 7.4 g sugar

The little triangle treat that makes you feel fancy. These may not be as impressive as the giant ones you can find at the airport, but they're still fun to nibble at.

9. Hershey’s Kisses

media.giphy.com

Per 3 pieces: 67 calories, 4 g fat (2.4 g saturated), 7.7 g sugar

MWAH. Perfect. Just a little bit. And you get three whole kisses!!

8. Nestle Crunch Fun Size

media.giphy.com

Per Fun Size bar: 60 calories, 3 g fat (2 g saturated), 7 g sugar

Just that little bit of fake chocolatey goodness to get you through the day.

7. Kit Kat Snack Size

media.giphy.com

Per Fun Size bar: 70 calories, 3.6 g fat (2.3 g saturated), 7 g sugar

It's like two bars for the sweet, crunchy caloric-price of one.

6. York Peppermint Pattie Snack Size

media.giphy.com

Per Snack Size patty: 60 calories, 1.25 g fat (.75 g saturated), 11 g sugar

They're basically giant, less creamy Junior Mints, so you can eat one instead of feeling guilty about downing an entire box.

5. Nerds Fun Size

thumbs.gfycat.com

Per Fun Size pack: 50 calories, 0 g fat, 12 g sugar

The little box of joy that functions both as a tasty treat and a method of mocking your friends, these little guys are just all around entertaining.

4. Tootsie Pop

media.giphy.com

Per pop: 60 calories, 0 g fat, 10 g sugar

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? Well, apparently about 364, but you can be the judge of it.

3. Smarties Candy Rolls

thumbs.gfycat.com

Per roll: 25 calories, 0 g fat, 6 g sugar

I'm personally incredibly biased toward these little suckers, but they're honestly great since you feel satisfied after just one little roll of them (and you can enjoy them slowly or all at once).

2. Pixy Stix

i.imgur.com

Per straw: 9 calories, 0 g fat, 2.1 g sugar

Ah yes, the original crack-in-a-tube. Sour, sweet, and just the right amount of tang, it'll definitely kick your craving in the balls.

1. Jelly Belly Jelly Beans Mini Pack

media1.tenor.com

Per pack: 35 calories, 0 g fat, 7 g sugar

Although these may seem very plain jane in comparison to the other candy on this list, they are objectively the healthiest (and I really cannot imagine wanting to sit down and eat a whole bowl of these -- just the one small pack is perfect for me, thank you). There's a multitude of flavors that leave you guessing and wanting a couple more, but then that black licorice one comes along...and ugh...you're good with that whole "candy business" for a while...

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
