Clever gifts and treats brought straight to your home.

Delivered Monthly

Wouldn't it be nice if food was just delivered to our doorsteps?

Well, surprise! It's the twenty-first century and that is fully possible. Not to mention you can have most other necessaries delivered, like clothes, toiletries, and books (yes, books are a 'necessary'). Since there are suddenly so many of these products hitting the market, I thought we could take a look at some of them so you could get an idea of what's out there (and how many things you're missing out on!)


Sketchbox

It costs $30 a month plus $5 shipping for the basic package, but if you want higher quality materials, you can bump up the price to $40.

It's pretty much a box of artistic joy shipped to your house every month. The package contains about five to six different types of mediums and tools, as well as a piece of art to inspire your creative endeavors.


Try the World

"Try the World one country at a time!"

Pretty snazzy catchphrase. You can choose how frequently you receive the deliveries, but in each one you get seven or eight gourmet food items. Each item comes with an explanation of exactly where it's from and how you eat it or cook with it.

The cost in $39 per box with free shipping if you pay monthly. As you sign up for more boxes, you get more off.


Owl Crate

With a name heavily influenced by Harry Potter, it's a service that delivers one YA book to your doorstep every month. Each box is themed so you get snacks and small gifts (like bookmarks) that compliment the title you're reading.


Japan Crate


A weird Japanese snack box subscription. Basically, if you like snacks, cute things, and not always knowing what you're eating: this is the box for you. They have three different box sizes, ranging from $12 to $30 a month. They do a nice job of picking unusual candies and snacks (no Hi-Chews or Pocky in this box!).


Universal Yums

Similar to Japan Crate, but different in that you get snacks from anywhere. $13 to $25 per box, they provide a wide variety of salty, sweet, and downright bizarre (but it's mostly just tasty stuff don't worry). Each month it's a different country, the one pictured above is the Chinese themed box.



Lola

Ships 100% cotton tampons to your house every month. That way you're always prepared, and you know there are not weird chemicals in your product. Similar services also provide liners or wipes based on your needs.


Candy Club

Premium candy. Every month. 'Nuff said.


Dollar Shave Club

Razors are freakishly expensive. Why should it cost so much to look good? Dollar Shave Club sends you razors every month at a cheaper price. You can sign up for different packages to receive additional razors or gifts.

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

(For Girls Who Are Interested In Greek Life)

2306
Sorority
Rebekah Lee

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.

Tiana would no doubt be disappointed in the food our cafeteria has to offer.

And hopefully she would cook for everyone in her dorm.

She definitley would not take any 8:00 am classes because she would be up late baking and cleaning up the communal kitchen that are available in every dorm.
