In This Article:

Ahhh, Trader Joe's. The Disneyland of grocery stores. They have an item to satisfy basically every craving a person could ever have and you don't have to worry about breaking the bank. If you're a college student, cravings and savings sound like a match made in the heavens.

1. Cheese puffs

Okay, not only college students, but everyone in God’s green earth should try these at least once in their life. These are basically a ~healthier~ version of Cheetos Puffs, so you can indulge in them without side eying the trail mix when you are looking for a good snack.

2. Mac and Cheese

They should have not put “Reduced Guilt” on the packaging, because it only makes me want to eat it for dinner every night! Just pop this in the oven or microwave and you have yourself a bowl of mac and cheese that almost tastes as good as Aunt Lucy’s at Thanksgiving.

3. Macarons

Macarons from Trader Joe’s doesn’t sound too promising, does it? Yeah, I can totally get that, but I promise that these will hook you onto the Trader Joe’s scene, if you weren’t completely into it already.

4. Mandarin Orange Chicken

For literally 5 bucks, you can have a version of orange chicken that puts Panda Express bowls to shame. It is quick, delicious dinner that will have you driving maniacally back to your closest Trader Joe’s to grab another bag.

5. Siracha Shrimp Bowl

The siracha shrimp bowls are perfect for college students. It’s almost like they were made for us! They are so full of flavor and tastes homemade. The best part? They cook in the microwave. What a dream.

6. Cauliflower Gnocci

As a college student, it can be hard to choose healthier options for dinner, so this is definitely a favorite. They're perfect to dress up with different sauces! Personally, I enjoy them with butter and fresh sage. They are truly amazing.

7. Spicy Cheese Crunchies

You heard me. Trader Joe’s came out with their own version of Hot Cheetos. Are they amazing? There is a 100% chance that the answer is yes.

8. 27 Layer Croissini

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.
