Woman's Day

It’s been said time and time again, but the cliche stands true and breakfast is, by far, the most important meal of the day. It starts your metabolism, wakes you up, and provides you with the energy to begin your morning. That being said, we don’t all have enough time in our busy lives for large meals of eggs and bacon, and on some days I’m lucky if I can grab a granola bar before I’m out the door. Thankfully, there is an easy solution to all of our breakfast binds. Here’s how to prepare the perfect bowl of Cheerios.


Step one, find your ingredients. Take out a bowl and spoon, grab whatever milk is in the fridge, get out the key ingredient, honey, and most importantly, find a box of Original Cheerios. Now, pour the “O’s” up to around three-fourths of your bowl, depending on its size. Next, carefully fill the bowl with milk, just until you begin to see the white rising from beneath the whole grain oats. This should leave a layer of dry Cheerios, untouched by the milk, that later gives a nice crunchy contrast to the soggy Cheerios below. The next step is to drizzle honey over the top layer of cereal, in a specific criss-cross pattern. The goal here is to ensure that every individual morsel is coated in the sugary substance. Now, if you have some extra time on your hands, or you’re feeling a little fancy, you can chop up some banana slices to rest among the cereal. And just like that, you have prepared the perfect bowl of Cheerios.

If after all of these steps you find yourself thinking, “But it would be so much easier to simply buy Honey Nut Cheerios.” let me tell you this. Those processed, artificially flavored

excuses for cereal have nothing on this homemade delectable arrangement. By preparing this perfect bowl of Cheerios, you get extra nutrients, the added benefits of a nut-free meal, and the reassurance that you’re a self-sufficient human who can make things for yourself. Overall, It’s easy to prepare the perfect bowl of Cheerios for your breakfast needs. This morning meal tastes fantastic, provides you with necessary energy, and is the perfect start to your day.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

Girl With Bleached Hair

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
