1. Copycat Panera Mac and Cheese

When I saw this recipe for copycat Panera mac and cheese I had to try it. I absolutely love Panera's mac and cheese and could happily live off of it for the rest of my life, so learning to make it was a must for me. The recipe was not that hard to make at all and came out amazing! This copycat recipe is delicious and absolutely does taste like the mac and cheese at Panera! The recipe does not require that many more ingredients than other homemade mac and cheese recipes and is super easy to follow. I would definitely recommend this recipe for anyone who is craving Panera mac and cheese or just wants a delicious mac and cheese recipe.

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!

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.

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.
