3 Foods You Can Make In A Mug

Being in college has taught me that time is valuable, and it doesn't need to be wasted on making elaborate meals. I have used these recipes myself and hope that you find them as easy and delicious as I do!

1. Breakfast Sandwich

This is my favorite recipe because you can customize it however you like!

Step 1: Get a mug and spray the inside with non-stick spray

Step 2: Crack one egg into your mug

Step 3: Whisk your egg in the cup until everything is mixed (optional: a splash of milk to make the egg fluffier)

Customize! After everything is missed together, this is your opportunity to put in cheese, deli meat, veggies, etc.

Step 4: Pop your mug into the microwave and cook for 1 minute

Step 5: Use a fork to pop out your egg onto a mini bagel, English muffin, etc. and ENJOY!

2. Ramen Noodles

I use this recipe all the time as a quick meal before heading out the door to class or to curb my late night cravings!

Step 1: Have a Ramen Noodles Packages of your choice

Step 2: Crush up the noddles in the bag so they're in pieces BEFORE you open the package

Step 3: Open the package and remember to get the flavoring pack out

Step 4: Pour the crushed noodles into the mug

Step 5: Fill the cup with water so it just so slightly covers the top layer of noodles

Step 6: Microwave for 3 minutes

Step 7: Carefully take the mug out and stir in the flavoring and ENJOY!

Optional: Add hot sauce or green onions for taste

3. Brownie

When it was my birthday this past year and I was stuck in the dorm room, this was the perfect little celebration treat for me myself and I!

Step 1: Mix ingredients in your mug:

3 tablespoons of all purpose flour

3 tablespoons of brown sugar

3 tablespoons of cocoa powder

3 tablespoons of oil (canola, coconut, etc.)

3 tablespoons of water

Pinch of salt

Optional: 1/2 a teaspoon of vanilla extract // chocolate chips for more sweetness

Step 2: Microwave for 45-60 seconds

Step 3: Let cool for 5 minutes and ENJOY!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
