I'm pretty sure Chipotle has become a household name to all college students. It's easy, fast, and delicious. But I think we can all agree when I say Chipotle can be pricey. Have no fear. I have three easy ways for you to save $$$ at Chipotle that won't make the employees despise you.

1. Order a burrito with a tortilla on the side

The burrito bowl is the meal that provides the best bang for your buck. The circumference size of the bowl is larger than that of the burrito bread. You may be thinking... well now if I get the burrito bowl, I'll miss out on the tortilla. NOPE. You will not miss out that delicious, warm bread because I have the hack for you. When you order at Chipotle, ask for a burrito bowl. Then, when the cashier asks you if you want chips.. well ya add those chips I know you can't resist. But after that ask for a plain tortilla on the side. Now you have your own burrito. And if you can't fold a burrito I have got the video for you right here.

2. Code Word When You Want More Meat: A lot

If you want a large heap of meat, say "(insert desired meat here) and a lot please." Do not use the word "extra" or "another serving." This is code for "this sucker is paying extra." You don't want to pay extra. You want extra but to get extra you got to say "a lot" not "extra." Capisci?

3. Not This But That

There may be a fixing of something you don't want in your meal. For me, it's beans. If you want to get the most of the food you do want, first state what you don't want then follow with what you do want. Example: No beans, but rice, please. It is likely that this way of explaining will subconsciously make the employee compensate for what you aren't getting. Extra cilantro-lime brown rice for me!

Time to go to Chipotle with some extra $$$ in your pocket.

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.

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:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

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.
