Trader Joe's. The grocery store of all grocery stores. A place where dreams come true. Well, maybe only if your dreams include groceries at a fair price. Here are 5 reasons why college kids are obsessed with Trader Joe's.

1. Almost everything is organic.

Eating organic is all the rage recently, and for good reason. How are we going to be the future leaders of America without a healthy diet?

2. It's actually affordable.

Ain't nobody got time (or money) for expensive food, especially if you're a college student. Healthy foods can be extremely overpriced (I'm looking at you, Whole Foods), but Trader Joe's seems to understand the struggle.

3. FREE SAMPLES.

Not only is there usually someone serving up free samples, but you can also sample anything you want to try before buying it. As long as they don't have to cook it, of course.

4. They cater to almost any dietary need.

Gluten free, dairy free, vegan, vegetarian, paleo, etc. No matter what you eat, you can find what you need at Trader Joe's.

5. Cheap Wine.

Enough said.

Trader Joe's just gets us, so it's no wonder they're such a hit. If your city is missing out on all that Trader Joe's has to offer, here's a link to an online form to bring Trader Joe's to you. You're welcome.

I've known you your entire life. More than likely I held you in the first three days of it and at least one of us cried. Cousins are truly one of the best things in the world and while sometimes I complain about how many people crowd Grandma's living room on Christmas Eve, I wouldn't trade you all anything.

You are my best friends, the only people who can understand what it's like on Thanksgiving, and you are the spunkiest people I have ever met. But you as so so young, most of you are just now starting your adventures in the public education system. I mean, I'm so very young too. I'm not married, I don't have children, heck, I just started my adult life, but I do want to give you what little advice I have. My dears, these are the things I want you to know.

You are a senior in high school, you have made it to the final year that you have been looking forward to since the first day of freshman year. Whether this has been the worst or best four years of your life, appreciate it. You will never have these times back, you will never be in high school again. It is hard for someone still in high school to wrap their brain around, but there will be a day when you wish you could be in the shoes you're in right now. Here are 15 things I have learned being in college that I wish I knew as a high school senior:

Trust me, once you start "One Tree Hill", you will be hooked. There's way too many reasons to list as to why you'll love this show, and these are just a few.

The first two weeks of classes have come to an end and they have been anything BUT easy. It seems like life has been serving up more bad than good and in all honesty, the only thing you want to do is crawl under your covers and hide from the rest of the world.

Although this seems like the best solution, it is also the easy way out. Take it from the girl who took basically a whole week off from her life because she just could not handle everything that was being thrown at her. This caused her to feel extremely lonely and even more stressed out for being behind in classes that JUST began.
