College girls are often running low on money, but it doesn't stop us from buying the following things...

1. Coffee

Despite the fact the fact that we have a Keurig, and plenty of pods for said Keurig, we still feel the need to try the newest fancy fall coffee drink out there.

2. Pizza

Losing all motivation to make anything else leads to pizza. The only problem is, the cost of a full-size pizza is hefty af.

3. Kombucha

Cheers to a $3+ bottled drink!

4. Chick-fil-A

Not the cheapest of chicken, but it gets us every time.

5. Halo Top

$5 a pint, yo.

6. Adding avocado or guacamole to anything 

Whether it's Subway or Chipotle, the avocado craze never ends. Even though it's an extra 2 bucks :/

7. Whipped cream 

Why you gotta do this to us, Tim Hortons?

8. Victoria's Secret underwear

The whole "7 for $27" thing never gets old.

9. New workout clothes

Even if Lululemon isn't your thing, you're bound to find a brand you're hooked on. What do they all have in common? TOO. EXPENSIVE.

10. Every "Soft & Sexy" shirt out there

Gotta have 'em. Otherwise you'll be hard and frumpy.

11. Acrylic nails

Once in a while, we have to get them. $30 to ruin your nails :/

12. The newest Anastasia Beverly Hills eyeshadow palette

It's somehow a necessity, even if you'll only use two colors.

13. Micellar water

This fancy stuff to take your makeup off costs way more than any other makeup remover.

14. Hulu

It's awesome, but to be honest, I still use Netflix more.

15. $100 or more on a trip to the hair salon 

Do we want a balayage? Yes. Can we really afford it? No.

16. Candles

This is especially relevant if you live the dorms and aren't even allowed to have candles :/

17.Girly books

The perfect complement to some coffee!

18. Flannels

Oh so cozy!!!

19. Thrifted band T-shirts

Or is just me?

20. Platform sneakers

Can a gal really ever have too many?

21. Glasses to drink out of that are actually glass

Lol, we're irresponsible and will just break them anyways.

22. Anything related to our sorority

Our excuse to buy every little thing is that it's to represent our house.

23. Throw pillows

We're just gonna "throw" them anyways so...

24. Dresses

Especially for formal--you know you could definitely wear a dress you've worn before, but you don't because there's just so many other ones out there.

25. Tattoos

I looooove them! Favorite thing ever! But at least $50 for even the tiniest ones :(

26. Juul pods

I don't have a Juul, but I imagine it gets price-y for those who do!

27. Face masks

Perfect way way to spend a gal night.

28. Water bottles

If you have a tendency to lose your water bottles a lot, this is an even bigger issue.

29. Waxing

Brows need to be fleeky!

30. Alcohol

For the 21+ college girls, opportunity is around every corner.

Who can relate? Yeah, me too. Want to order pizza tonight?

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?

sisters

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.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. 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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.

It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
