10 Foods That Are More Enjoyable Without A Boyfriend

I am not the first, and will definitely not be the last, to say that food is my favorite thing in the entire world. I promise you when I say that I've watched Buzzfeed's Tasty videos for hours. As a nineteen year old girl, I'm probably not doing myself a justice when I say that I'd rather stay at home with a feast of my favorite foods instead of going to parties or dates. But there is a comfort that freshly packaged and processed food brings and I'm happy to share some of my favorites with you. Who needs a guy that will break your heart, when you know that food never will? Now, I may not have a significant other or even a weekly income, but what I do have is food, in all of its glorious shapes and forms.

1. Pizza

May it be pepperoni or peppered, thick or thin crusted, pizza will always be number one. Though I could do with a little less grease, I don't imagine picking a boy over pizza any time soon.

2. Cake

Glorious, glorious, cake. I've never been a huge fan of frosting, but it's what's on the inside that matters most, right? I love me some chocolate cake, but would definitely settle for some red velvet.

3. Ice cream

The best thing about ice cream is that there's a flavor for every mood. You have birthday cake for your happiest of moods, and chocolate chunk for your saddest of times. Grab a pint and a spoon and turn on your tv for some much needed "me-time."

4. Cookies

Cookies are not for every occasion. I feel like some cookies are more dainty, while girl scout cookies are meant to be devoured in seconds. But no matter your circumstances, there is always a cookie for you to chomp on.

5. Chicken

I have been known to eat a lot of chicken and I have zero regrets. Whether it be in nugget or wing form, it's all the same feeling of comfort. Like Mindy Lahiri, practice your right to "life, liberty, and chicken wings!"

6. Candy

Candy, yes candy. It's a food. It's a gift. If I could survive only off of candy, trust me, I would. I am no stranger to sugary and artificially colored substances, and I urge you to be the same.

7. Breakfast food

There are just some days when you just really need a pancake. Or a waffle, or bacon. Tomorrow morning, live like Leslie Knope and devour those delicious waffles.

8. Cheese

Cheese in all of its forms is great. There's grilled cheese, mac and cheese, even nacho cheese, and that's only the beginning. Lactose intolerance aside, Americans love cheese. Who's to say we shouldn't?

9. Chinese food

A little MSG never hurt nobody, right? (This is not a scientifically proven fact). The Gilmore girls know better than anyone that food is much better than men ever will be. They practically live for pigging out in front of their couch, and eating as much as they can is something to strive for.

10. Donuts

Last, but certainly not least, donuts. Or is it "doughnuts?" Anyway, donuts are one of my favorites to eat either with a buddy, or by myself. And with a glaze so thick and dough just as fluffy, who needs a guy?

Now before you say anything else, just remember that you too do not need a guy. You do need food for survival. Now go ahead and grab your best silverware and make the best plate you could ever imagine. Bon appetite!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

The 5 Painfully True Stages Of Camping Out At The Library

For those long nights that turn into mornings when the struggle is real.

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
