6 Underrated Drinks and Products

Time to ditch the Pumpkin Spice and try something new.

Everyone loves getting their Pumpkin Spiced coffee from Dunkin Donuts and their mocha frappuccino from Starbucks, but have you really ever tried anything else? Same goes with the makeup and clothes you buy. Here are some underrated food/products that might be worth giving a try.

1. Cinnamon Dolce Latte (Starbucks)

The cinnamon dolce latte is the perfect drink for the upcoming fall season. Espresso with steamed milk and cinnamon dolce syrup, topped with scrumptious whipped cream and a dab of cinnamon. What could be a better than this latte and a cozy fire on a fall day?

2. Blackberry Iced Tea (Dunkin Donuts)

Time to ditch the iced coffee because tea is making a comeback! This fruity drink is totally refreshing and most of the time they even throw in strawberry pieces to liven it up.

3. Green Tea (Panera)

Everyone is ranting and raving about the bread bowls but is anyone actually talking about how good the green tea is? The tea is already sweet so you don't get the bitterness you would from plain green tea. Not to mention that green tea is super healthy for you! Panera definitely is a record holder for the best around.

4. NYX (Cosmetics)

NYX makeup is cheap and fabulous at the same time. Why spend $30 on a liquid lipstick when you can get ultimately the same thing for $5.99? The quality is no less than the more expensive one and they come in all different varieties. Save some cash next time, as well as questions of if NYX would have what you need.

5. Elf (Cosmetics)

Not only does Elf cosmetic not test on animals, it is also the cheapest makeup brand out there. The quality is just as good as the high-end products just with a lower price tag. What a steal!

6. Marshals Lingerie Department

Alright, this one might be a bit of a stretch but it was too significant not to mention. You can buy two bras at Marshall's for $6.99. Two bras. $6.99. If I were to get two bras at Victoria's Secret it would easily be up to at least $100 dollars. Who doesn't want inexpensive, good quality bras? Right ladies?

Bargain shopping is easier than it sounds. Sometimes people want to follow the trend or are just not interested in looking for a change. At the end of the day, whether it be for price related reasons or not, a change will always do you good.

Anticipating The End Of Your First Semester, As Told By April Ludgate

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

National Writers Society

Everyone who is in college right now, or has ever been, knows the struggle of pulling in the strings at the last second. It seems impossible, and you have to do a LOT of things in order to assure your future for the next semester.

April Ludgate, historically, is a very annoyed person, and she doesn't hide it. Of all the times that I binged and re-binged "Parks and Rec," her attitude relates more and more to me.

To The Cheerful Person On Their Rainy Days, You Are Valid

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.

Ask friends of mine to name a quality about me, and one a lot them will point out the fact that I am almost always smiling. I like to laugh and smile -- not to quote Buddy the Elf in April, but smiling is my favorite! It is probably my favorite go-to expression. However, what a lot of people do not see is that I have my down days. I have days when smiling and laughing is a real struggle, or when I have so much on my plate that going out of my way to behappy takes more effort than I have stored in me. Be it a symptom of college and growing up or a facet of life, I cannot always be content.

"I don't want to do things. I want to not do things."

1. When you look at the syllabus and realize there are only three weeks of the semester left; even though the first day was LITERALLY yesterday.

2. You look at your grades and realize they probably aren't as high as they should be, which is a terrifying realization.

3. When you think to yourself at night, "tomorrow, I will wake up early and go to the library ALL day, and, hell, maybe after I'll go to the gym for a little bit, just to push myself that extra mile."

4. Tomorrow actually comes. The inevitable and overpowering sense of procrastination is too strong to overcome.

5. But you DO end up going to the library. Not all day though, but still, a while. But no, you do not go to the gym. Still, you made an effort, so you decide to treat yo' self.

6. When you realize you need to schedule a meeting with your adviser because you need to sign up for classes next semester. But you also realize that since you waited until the last minute, you're going to get stuck with all of the crappy classes.

7. When you low-key try to slip into conversation with your professors that you need extra credit because you're that desperate.

8. When it's already the third time you've seen your adviser in two days because you have no damn clue what you're doing and need all the help you can get.

9. When you apply for a job associated with your major even though you have no experience, but you just want to dive headfirst into the deep end of adulthood and get it over with.

The world is not always sunshine and rainbows, and you do not have to be, either.
