It sucks. We all know it.

11 Things I Would Rather Eat Than Dining Hall Food
California State University at Long Beach

I don’t think there’s any dining hall that serves good food. We can all come to a consensus on that, right? Even with the variety of food spots on campus (the student union and both of the dining halls), out of every aspect of college, the food is the worst part. For you, I have compiled a list of seven things I would rather eat for a meal over the dining hall food.


1. Saltines & peanut butter


People think I’m weird but this is actually something I eat for meals when I’m sick of campus food. It’s not crazy. It’s exactly like packaged peanut butter crackers, just not in a package. It makes sense.


2. Chef Boyardee

This stuff is like Ramen Noodles. I hate it, but I would definitely eat this before walking out to the dining hall, especially now that it’s winter and quite often colder than ever. It’s gross, and it makes me feel like shit but it’s better than the dining hall.


3. A head of raw broccoli

Raw broccoli has both a terrible taste and no taste at all. Even regular broccoli isn’t too great. It’s a small, stupid tree. Why does it exist? Nobody likes it.


4. A plate of asparagus



Like broccoli, who likes asparagus? Nobody.


5. A Banana

Semi-solid, upright baby food.


6. The week-old rotisserie chicken that's been sitting in my fridge


When snowpocalypse hit, a couple kids from my floor and I went to Earthfare to get ingredients to make some buffalo chicken dip. The dip was gone in a day. The chicken, however, was plentiful and still sits in my fridge. A week later.


7. Dry Ramen

Cooked Ramen is almost as bad as #2. Now, uncooked ramen... it's raw pasta. Not tasty. Probably not good for your teeth either.


8. My grandmother's meatloaf

Meatloaf is awful. Why the f*ck would you want to eat meat that's been smushed up to resemble a loaf of bread. That's literally mushy meat-bread. Disgusting


9. My math homework

Paper. I would literally eat paper.


10. Road Kill

Desperation has hit. Upper level central is closed and all the good spots in lower level central... let's be real, there are none. I would eat this raccoon.


11. My left hand

Tastes like chicken, right?

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.
