Ah, chocolate chips. You're always there when I need you and don't need you. Sometimes I need you in large quantities, other times smaller amounts. Either way, you're there and you're ready for devouring.

This is for those of you like me who need a dose of sugar every once in a while, but don't know how else to fit it into your day. Enjoy this compilation of semi-healthy recipes with chocolate chips for anytime consumption.

No Bake Energy Bites

Tori Renovitch

Mix 1 cup rolled oats, 1/2 cup chocolate chips, 1/2 cup peanut butter, and 1/3 cup honey in a bowl. Roll them into balls, then put them in the fridge for a few hours. Yummy snack!

Apple Cookies

Tori Renovitch

Cut an apple into slices. Cover the slices with peanut butter and then sprinkle on chocolate chips!

Blueberry and Chocolate Chip Muffins

Tori Renovitch

I use the Krusteaz brand muffin mix (it's my favorite) but any muffin mix or blueberry muffin recipe will work. Then just add chocolate chips with the blueberries.

Mini Frozen Yogurt Pops

Tori Renovitch

Put any kind of yogurt into an ice cube tray (approximately 16 oz of yogurt for 1 ice cube tray) and sprinkle with chocolate chips.

Peanut Butter-Banana Quesadillas

Take a tortilla (any size will do) and put peanut butter on HALF of it (putting it over the whole thing will make it too peanut-buttery). Add sliced bananas and chocolate chips. Cook on a skillet at medium heat for a few minutes. Boom. Lunch.

Fruit Salad

Any concoction of fruit with chocolate chips is great!

Banana Split Snack

Tori Renovitch

Cut a banana in half (long ways) then smother with peanut butter and chocolate chips!

2 Ingredient Banana Chocolate Chip Ice Cream Bites

Tori Renovitch

Mash or blend bananas (2 bananas for approximately 1 ice tray). Put into ice tray, sprinkle with chocolate chips. Freeze for a few hours for a perfect midnight snack!

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
