Jolly Pong (죠리퐁)


Sweet and has a slight crunch. American equivalent would be the cereal Golden Crisps. Pour some milk to a bowl and some of these and you basically have yourself some breakfast.




Home Run Ball (홈런볼)


Light fluffy pastry-like outside filled with soft chocolate. Everything just melts in your mouth when you pop this in there. Reminds me of a cream puff. It also comes with different flavored fillings such as banana, cream and cheese.




Kancho (칸초)

Very similar to the home run ball except the outside is harder and produces a good crunch; the inside is still filled with chocolate. As you can see there are also cute characters printed on the balls.




Pepero (빼빼로)

Thin cookie stick dipped in chocolate (the original version). This is essentially the Korean version of Pocky which is Japanese. In Korea there is a day called Pepero Day (Nov. 11th) where people exchange Peperos to show affection for their friends and loved ones.




Shrimp Crackers (새우깡)

Once you get past the fishy smell this crunchy snack will lure you in. There are a lot of snacks that have seafood flavors but this is the staple in Korea.




Onion Ring

Similar to Funyuns this snack has an onion flavor (obviously) but it has a lot smoother texture.




Choco-Pie (쵸코파이)


The classic Korean snack. It's easy to carry around and eat. It has a marshmallow center surrounded by cake and covered in chocolate.




Whale Food (고래밥)

An underwater theme snacked where the chips are shaped like fish, octopus, crab, etc. The fried spicy flavor is more tangy than spicy!

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.
