Being a college student doesn't always mean you get the luxury of eating at nice restaurants or being able to afford groceries. Maybe your dorm doesn't even have a kitchen. So what do you do when you find yourself on a budget, but you want to enjoy a fabulous meal? You hit up the nearest fast food joints. Unsure of where to go? Don't worry, I ranked them for you. These are the top five places to get fast food.

5. Burger King

Ah Burger King, it's not the best, but if it's close or it's the only thing around then it becomes more appealing. But don't get me wrong, I love me some chicken fries. Even if every time I go they don't have any left. Clearly, they have a personal vendetta against me.

4. Wendy's

I refuse to put Wendy's any higher on the list because even though their ingredients are pretty fresh, it can get a little pricey. I suggest going here only if you're not super hungry and want to buy 3 things on the menu. If you're going to go to Wendy's and you want to save money, you either have to go to the dollar menu or choose carefully. Also this is definitely not that place where you offer to buy your friends food when you barely have any money yourself. Sorry Wendy's, your fries just aren't up to par.

3. Popeyes

To settle an age long debate on which is better, KFC or Popeyes, it's Popeyes. It's amazing, not too cheap, but their chicken, biscuits, and potatoes can speak for themselves. I only cry over food that truly speaks to my soul, and Popeye's is one of those places that can really touch my heart.

2. McDonald's

Besides getting paid, nothing is better than going to McDonald's with $5 in your account and knowing you can get a full meal off the dollar menu.McDonald's is the best place to treat your friends because everyone can find something they want off the dollar menu. Sharing is caring, thank you for teaching us such a valuable lesson, McDonald's.

1. Taco Bell

Finally, Taco Bell takes number one. Are you surprised? If so, have you ever even had a Baja Blast? Or a Cheesy Gordita Crunch? Or a Crunchwrap Supreme? C'mon people, we all know Taco Bell conquers all! Another great place to share with your friends and make the most magical of memories. Nothing compares to 1am trips to Taco Bell and sitting in the parking lot watching people in their pickup trucks race around the Walmart parking lot. Ah, memories.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

27 Things 'The Office' Has Taught Us

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

Being pre-med is quite a journey. It’s not easy juggling school work, extracurricular activities, volunteering, shadowing, research, and MCAT prep all at the same time. Ever heard of “pain is temporary, but GPA is forever?” Pre-meds don’t just embody that motto; we live and breathe it. Here are 10 symptoms you’re down with the pre-med student syndrome.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

One Book Made Me Question Existence In Its Entirety

A book by the name of "The Stranger."

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves. He eventually gets the death penalty and all throughout he is nonchalant and almost apathetic towards his situation. He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
