14 Foods College Students Live On
Tobias Krummer

Food college kids live on. I don't know about you but I have a few go to foods. Things I live off of when I have no time to make anything else and have no desire to go out and spend any money. They are the kind of foods that one day I will probably never eat again because I have ain't them so much now.

1. Cottage cheese

This might be a weird one and I haven't liked it for long, but I'm obsessed. I probably eat some every single day. It might be a problem.

2. Hot dogs

They are just so easy and so simple and it is protein so it's good for you right?

3. Pizza

Pizza is life. Cook in the common kitchen or order in, it's perfect for any meal, breakfast, lunch or dinner!

4. Pizza pockets

Pizza pockets are for when your too lazy to bake your own or too cheap to order in. Pop them in the microwave for the perfect pizza snack. I do not know about you but i like mine with a dab of ranch dressing on the side.

5. Hot pockets

Again these are similar but, they come in so many more flavors! These literally come in breakfast form, which are probably my favorite ones! they are also more handy to eat on the run.

6. Chicken nuggets

Whether you go get McDonald's or its out of the freezer, you couldn't survive college without chicken nuggets. Personally I prefer the ones that come in the 4 for $4 at Wendy's!

7. Mac & cheese

With macaroni and cheese there is nothing like mom's homemade but when your away at college, the box life it is. Kraft Macaroni and Cheese is a meal in a box for most.

8. Protein bars

Protein Bars or just granola bars in general are one of those on the go meals when your already 5 minutes late for class and cannot spare even enough time to cook that hot pocket.

9. Ramen noodles

When payday is still two days out, you live off these. Nothing is cheaper and some of us actually do like them! Just watch it though because they are extremely high in salt!

10. Peanut butter crackers

When I am at work, you can almost always find some of these on my counter. they are the perfect bite size snack for in between customers with plenty of protein to keep you going, but make sure you have a drink!

11. Cereal

There is nothing better than a bowl of cereal when you get off work. Yes, I am that weird one that eats cereal at night instead of for breakfast!

12. Tacos

Now Tacos, you have to get from Taco Bell. There is no option. They are cheap enough you cannot even complain about the price.

13. Caffeine

I know it is not food but, I do not think most people would make it to class without caffeine. whether it is coffee, Monsters, or Red Bull, or some other source, all college students seem to max out on caffeine.

14. Alcohol

and the reason we all need the caffeine? should be late nights studying, but mostly it is late nights drinking. That is what college is for! Just be careful!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

There have been many lessons learned.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
