I Promise You This Will Be Your New Favorite Starbucks Order

The Good Good is just what it sounds like: amazing.

I Promise You This Will Be Your New Favorite Starbucks Order

Ah, Starbucks. I'm pretty sure it was the nectar talked about throughout Greek mythology as being the drink(s) of the gods.

As a college student, I practically live in a study room of the library, and thus drink more than my fair share of Starbucks drinks.

I recently gave up caffeinated drinks (for the most part), and could no longer feed my Starbucks affliction as well as I used to. Thankfully, my barista friend CJ let me in on his secret weapon: the Good Good.

Sweet but not overly so, non-caffeinated, fruity, and much less expensive than my usual peppermint mocha with five shots, the Good Good gave rise to an even worse addiction than I previously had. I regret none of my decisions in this aspect. It is by far the best drink I've ever received, and I strongly urge you to try it for yourself (if you're willing to let a newfound drink take over your social life.

Since this drink was created by a friend of mine and is consequently not on the menu, you'll have to order it the long way. Here's how you do it.

(please note the amounts and syrup distribution are calibrated for a Venti; sorry in advance if you want something smaller, but in all honesty you should just get a Venti because it rings up around $3.56, totally worth the best drink you'll ever have from the restaurant.)

Venti Passion Tea

Apple juice instead of water

Extra apple juice

Three pumps Raspberry syrup

Three pumps Classic syrup

Light Ice

Enjoy! (You can thank me later)

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
