The Side-Kitchen: 10 Easy Recipes

Many in the Greek community know the struggles of cooking in their house's side-kitchen. While some are more blessed then others, here are 10 quick and easy recipes that won't fail your late-night cravings.

  1. Chocolate Brownie in a Mug: What's better than freshly baked brownies out of the oven? A freshly baked brownie in a mug! All you need is three ingredients: your favorite brownie mix, water, and chocolate chips.
  2. Chocolate Chip Cookie: Not a brownie person? You're in luck, because cookies can also be prepared in the microwave.
  3. One Minute Microwave Omelet: For those who wake up craving a warm breakfast, here is an easy way to make an omelet in your microwave. Just add your favorite ingredients in a microwave-safe bowl and you are good to go.
  4. French Toast in a Mug: This is another awesome breakfast option for those who crave something sweet in the morning. All you need is bread, eggs, syrup, and cinnamon, and you can have French toast that will make you feel like you can cook in a real kitchen again.
  5. Pancake in a Mug: Even easier than French toast is pancakes in a mug. All you need is your favorite pancake mix and some milk.
  6. 4 Minute Potato Chips: Sick of having cereal as a snack after class. How about fresh potato chips made using a microwave?
  7. S'Mores in a Cup: A fire is no longer necessary for this popular summer snack. Just layer graham crackers, chocolate chips, and marshmallows in a cup for a tasty treat. While this is traditionally baked in an toaster oven, you can also put it in the microwave for one to two minutes.
  8. Grilled Cheese and Peanut Butter Sandwich: Love cheese and peanut butter? Well why not try them together? This can be made on a panini maker, small grill, or microwave. If you use a microwave, I suggest toasting the bread and microwaving the sandwich for a short period so it remains crispy.
  9. Ultimate Grilled Cheese: If peanut butter isn't for you, try a traditional grilled cheese with cream cheese on each bread slice.
  10. Nutella Mug Cake: With only four ingredients you can make a tasty Nutella cake for one.

While many of these recipes may force you to run to your nearest Kroger to buy a few ingredients, these treats will really hit the spot after a late-night study session.

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.
