As a self-professed health nut and calorie counter, I had a hard time in college justifying the amount of empty calories I was intaking with beer. I never was a big beer drinker, even though everyone told me I would get used to it after awhile. I always thought it tasted horribleand wasn’t worth […]

Every college girl has been alerted to the fact that they should detag incriminating pictures or take down inappropriate quotes from online profiles because it could harm the status of a future internship, job, or even college application. That’s all common sense at this point.

February 1, 2008 - 9:30 am
My love-hate relationship with the Pill is something I have come to accept.

In 20 years, I will be sitting around with my girlfriends reminiscing about the good old days when we had to actually diet and exercise to whittle away those extra pounds gained from beer and late night pizza runs, if miracle cures such as the new “lipodissolve” actually work.
