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!

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!

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.
