It's 2 AM, you've got two finals in the morning, and all you wanna do pass out and die for what little time you can before you get thrown into the wringer that is life before exams.

Now, on top of all that, you're reaching that point of the night where you're getting hit with hunger you wouldn't have realized was affecting you had you done what normal people do and slept at a reasonable time. With the regrets running through your mind, caloric intake becomes less and less of a factor as a desire for instant dietary gratification begins to be the only priority.

Beginning study break number 47 you begin looking through all the options for late night delivery —Dominos, Cottage Inn, and Pizza House being the local go-to's for University of Michigan— I argue that there is another, very under-appreciated option that many are quick to overlook.

Jimmy John's.

Now hear me out. While a cold sub may not seem like something to out do a good ol' slice of pizza or take-out pasta — there's a magic to that sandwich that makes it a craving to scratch the itch you never knew was needed scratching. Of all the things you ever thought you needed, this one tops the list of unknown unknowns.

The #4 Turkey Tom. Turkey breast topped with lettuce, tomato, and mayo preferably served on some nice french bread for that nice and crisp flavor. The entire sandwich, with its 4 simple ingredients, seems like nothing much but the tender combination of the turkey breast alongside mayo augmented tomatoes and lettuce makes for nothing short of a masterpiece. The cold cut state of the sandwich only lengthens the lifespan of the glorious 'wich before its inevitable and swift consumption at your hands.

It's that sneaking desire that you've got hidden behind your craving for pizza and take-out pasta, a life-enhancing experience just awaiting your call.

Give it a shot, I'm telling you it'll be worth it.

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.
