Why Oreos are a Gift from the Gods

If you haven't eaten a sleeve of Oreos alone, what do you even do in your free time?

If you don't love Oreos and eat an entire sleeve at least once a month, are you even human? Oreos are a true gift from the gods. They just are. They are perfectly creamy and chocolatey. But that's not all they are.

1. They're vegan.

If they're vegan, then more people can eat them! When vegans find out that Oreos are in their diet, their minds are blown. They might not be gluten free or paleo or whatever, but they're still a viable dessert (or dinner) option for people with very restricted diets.

2. There are so. Many. Kinds.

There are some dang good Oreo options. Golden Oreos, Peanut Butter Oreos, Heads or Tails, Double Stuf, the list goes on and on. Then there are some... odd choices: Watermelon, Fruit Punch, Root Beer Float, and that list continues as well. But they sure do have something for everyone.

3. You can make so much with them.

You want Oreos but you don't just want to eat cookies... Well you could get cookies and cream ice cream. Want something less cold? Use crushed oreos for a pie crust. You can even mash them and blend them with icing to make cake pops. Seriously. The possibilities are endless.

4. They're so easy to eat.

Sure, there might be a couple crumbs or some drops of milk, but they're generally less messy. You dip it in the milk and then just pop it in your mouth. So much easier than things that need forks. Plus, less dishes to wash. Score.

5. They love the holidays as much as you do.

Whether you love Halloween or Christmas, there's a cookie for that. Oreos just have so much spirit. And they taste better when they're colored, let's be honest.

6. Oreos are just dang tasty.

You can't say you aren't craving them after reading this. Go ahead, go get your milk and your sleeve of Oreos. No one has to know if you eat all of them alone while binge-watching Gilmore Girls.

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.
