You know they'll never really be good for you, but gosh darn if you don't miss them like a ghost misses saying "boo" at all other times of the year.

10.  Toblerone Fun Size

i.makeagif.com

Per Fun Size bar: 66 calories, 3.6 g fat (1 g saturated), 7.4 g sugar

The little triangle treat that makes you feel fancy. These may not be as impressive as the giant ones you can find at the airport, but they're still fun to nibble at.

9. Hershey’s Kisses

media.giphy.com

Per 3 pieces: 67 calories, 4 g fat (2.4 g saturated), 7.7 g sugar

MWAH. Perfect. Just a little bit. And you get three whole kisses!!

8. Nestle Crunch Fun Size

media.giphy.com

Per Fun Size bar: 60 calories, 3 g fat (2 g saturated), 7 g sugar

Just that little bit of fake chocolatey goodness to get you through the day.

7. Kit Kat Snack Size

media.giphy.com

Per Fun Size bar: 70 calories, 3.6 g fat (2.3 g saturated), 7 g sugar

It's like two bars for the sweet, crunchy caloric-price of one.

6. York Peppermint Pattie Snack Size

media.giphy.com

Per Snack Size patty: 60 calories, 1.25 g fat (.75 g saturated), 11 g sugar

They're basically giant, less creamy Junior Mints, so you can eat one instead of feeling guilty about downing an entire box.

5. Nerds Fun Size

thumbs.gfycat.com

Per Fun Size pack: 50 calories, 0 g fat, 12 g sugar

The little box of joy that functions both as a tasty treat and a method of mocking your friends, these little guys are just all around entertaining.

4. Tootsie Pop

media.giphy.com

Per pop: 60 calories, 0 g fat, 10 g sugar

How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Pop? Well, apparently about 364, but you can be the judge of it.

3. Smarties Candy Rolls

thumbs.gfycat.com

Per roll: 25 calories, 0 g fat, 6 g sugar

I'm personally incredibly biased toward these little suckers, but they're honestly great since you feel satisfied after just one little roll of them (and you can enjoy them slowly or all at once).

2. Pixy Stix

i.imgur.com

Per straw: 9 calories, 0 g fat, 2.1 g sugar

Ah yes, the original crack-in-a-tube. Sour, sweet, and just the right amount of tang, it'll definitely kick your craving in the balls.

1. Jelly Belly Jelly Beans Mini Pack

media1.tenor.com

Per pack: 35 calories, 0 g fat, 7 g sugar

Although these may seem very plain jane in comparison to the other candy on this list, they are objectively the healthiest (and I really cannot imagine wanting to sit down and eat a whole bowl of these -- just the one small pack is perfect for me, thank you). There's a multitude of flavors that leave you guessing and wanting a couple more, but then that black licorice one comes along...and ugh...you're good with that whole "candy business" for a while...

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
