I love burgers.

They've always been a general staple for my family, and I just love a really good burger. When a friend and I headed to Vegas for a couple of days, I knew there were a few burger places I wanted to try out. I'm a little surprised about how they all stacked up, but I think any of them are worth a try at least once.

1. In-N-Out was pretty good!

What would a trip out west be without In-N-Out? This was my first time to In-N-Out, and it was pretty good! We picked up our food and took it back to our hotel room, so it was a little cold by the time we got to eat it (and I forgot to snap a pic)

. Even then, it was still good. We got our burgers animal style, and I don't think I would order them any other way.

Next time I would probably skip the fries, but I wouldn't hesitate to stop at In-N-Out on my next trip. This was definitely the most affordable option as well!

2.The Gordon Ramsay Burger was just OK.

This was one of our last stops in Vegas before we headed to the airport, and we almost didn't make it. We stood in line as this Gordon Ramsay location doesn't take reservations. We almost left before a couple seats opened at the bar, and I'm glad we stayed. We enjoyed sitting at the bar and enjoyed our sangrias and shareable truffle fries.

Seriously, the sangria was probably the best I've ever had.

For my burger, I had The Stout Burger which came with crispy onions, mushrooms, gruyere cheese, and a Guinness mustard aioli. I don't like mushrooms, so I went ahead and skipped them. The burger itself was good, but I was a little disappointed.

I expected a lot from a Gordon Ramsay restaurant, and it really only felt like a half-step above a random chain restaurant burger. It was a little dry and only good when I was expecting fantastic.

3. The Black Tap burger was the best burger I've had in my entire life.

Black Tap is a must stop on your next Las Vegas trip. They have locations in other cities, and I was stoked to finally get the opportunity to go.

Their Las Vegas location is actually inside of the Venetian Hotel. We had to wait in line for a little while, but it was definitely worth the wait. We sat inside and absolutely loved the cool aesthetic. I ordered the Kobe Steakhouse Burger. It was wagyu beef with pepper jack cheese, bacon, crispy, onions, A1 sauce, and roasted garlic mayo.

Oh. My. Gosh.

This was seriously the best burger I have ever had in my life. All the flavors went together so well, but I could still pick out the individual components. The burger itself was juicy and cooked perfectly. I went for the Caesar salad instead of fries, and that's really the only complaint I have. It just wasn't very good, but the burger completely made up for it. We finished up with one of their awesome milkshakes. Blacktap will definitely be on the list for my next trip.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
