I'm a huge foodie and an avid snacker. Here are my fave snacks!

1. Veggies + Hummus

This is the raw go-to health snack. There are so many flavors of hummus nowadays the possibilities to branch out are endless. Also the volume ratio for this snack is impressive.

2. Fruits

The strategy to this is stock up in the dining hall. I'd always swipe a few apples each time I went through the dining hall so I could snack later ;)

3. Popcorn

Brands like Smartfood and Skinnypop have lines of popcorn that are deemed ~healthier~ and taste pretty dang good. If you love popcorn check these ones out!

4. Peanut butter/almond butter

A spoonful of PB is the way to my heart. So good. So fulfilling. So perfect. Mix this with bananas (or dark choco) for an even wilder experience.

5. Protein bars

If you aren't a fan of protein bars, try the brand One bar or Powercrunch bars. They have more flavor than the traditional kind!

6. Dark chocolate

I'm a huge dark chocolate gal. Especially if it's the sea salt kind. Add caramel and then I'll really swoon.

7. Applesauce

This one is just kinda fun. Buy the Go-go squeeze packets for on-the-go transport.

8. Goldfish

The snack that smiles back is pretty healthy! And very affordable, which us college kids love.

9. Pretzels

This salty snack is the perfect midday break.

10. Jerky

Random kinda, but super fulfilling if you're feeling super hungry.

Happy snacking!!

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?

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. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. 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!)
