WARNING/DISCLAIMER:

Okay, I'm about to touch on a very controversial and much debated subject. I know it's kind of touchy, and I won't express my fire and ice opinions about it too much. Instead I'll give a list of options, in which you can choose for yourself with is the best choice (I'll try my best to be as unbiased as I possibly can about this topic).

Which way is the best way ... to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich?

Option 1:

Step 1: Gather ingredients (peanut butter, your choice of brand, chunky or smooth; jelly, choice of brand and flavor; and choice of bread.)

Step 2: Always start with the peanut butter (obviously... it is a peanut butter and jelly sandwich of course… order of operation, my friends). Use a butter knife to spread the peanut butter on one slice of bread.

Step 3: Grab your jelly and use the butter knife to spread the jelly on the other slice of bread.

Step 4: Take your two slices of perfectly saturated bread and place them together (make sure that each side of the bread shape lines up perfectly, like so...)


Step 5 (optional): Cut off crust or cut diagonally or horizontal. Any way you choose, as long as it's even. The key to a perfect sandwich is having the perfect consistency and precision.

Option 2:

Step 1: Gather same ingredients as option 1.

Step 2: Mix perfect amounts of both peanut butter and jelly together. Consistency is key. Mix until well blended. Then mix again (because like your contour, you must blend until it's just right).

Step 3: Take one slice of bread and spread your perfectly blended peanut butter and jelly on it. (Depending on the amount of sweetness you can handle, you can chose to put the mixture on both slices.)

Step 4 (optional): Same as Step 5 for option 1. Choose how you would like to cut you sandwich, as long as it is even and precise.

Option 3:

Now, if you'd like to make a sandwich that's equivalent to my life, then you want to just completely screw it up.

Step 1: Pick your ingredients (for this option, just use whatever you have in your fridge, any kind of substitutes work, because it's gonna taste like crap anyway).

Step 2: Spread whatever peanut butter (or substitute) you can find and slather it on your bread.

Step 3: Repeat process of step 2 except with jelly, or other alternative.

Step 4: This is the part where you basically knock your sandwich slices on the floor, sticky side DOWN!

Step 5: Go sulk in bed and rethink all of your screw ups and why life treats you this way.

And if you'd like to add a little flare, add marshmallow puff crème or a banana or any other food item you'd enjoy with peanut butter and jelly.

Also, don't forget to add your glass of milk.

EAT, DRINK, AND ENJOY!!!

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of “adult.” For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
