I Ordered Something For 1 Cent

This is real folks.

I Ordered Something For 1 Cent

I was on Amazon, doin' some shoppin', and I was on the look out for some new shirts, but they were all really expensive. So, I had an idea, I clicked on "Sort by" and I chose to sort by price, lowest to highest. First of all, I was expecting to see a bunch of stuff for like $5, or maybe a bunch of accessories and shit that were all falsely tagged as clothing for a little under a dollar. Instead, I found tons of items all for 1 cent. Now, immediately I thought this was a scam. After all, there were no reviews on any of these, no verified purchases, and they were all based out of China. But then I thought to myself, "Amazon is a respectable company I'm sure they wouldn't allow this if it were a scam". Then I had my most rational thought of all, "Hell, it's only 1 cent". So I looked around the 1 cent section until I found a bomb a** shirt and added it to the cart and went to checkout. At the checkout I found out that I had to pay $4 in shipping! And on top of all of that, it was going to take 2 months. It's still on its way, I'll write a follow-up article letting you guys know how it goes. But, honestly, how cool is it that I bought something for only 1 cent?


Update: The shirt has come in. And it looks really good on Bri. The fit is OKAY, the design on the t-shirt is obviously ironed on and is a little crooked but I mean, what else are you going to expect from a shirt that only cost 1 cent?

Conclusion: If you need a shirt and you only have 5 dollars, you should buy some of these shirts! If you care about how you look....maybe don't?

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.

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.
