1st girl: “I had a really nice, lovely, normal New Years’ kiss. No drama.”
2nd girl: “Yeah. Well, I ended up getting a kiss from my rabbit. He’s man enough for me.”
1st girl:”Cute!”
3rd girl: “I sat by myself and read Wikipedia while the ball dropped. Then my cat threw up.”

“Hey! Do that voice again! It’s like we’ve got two dads. The best Christmas party ever!”

“Bacteria turkey. That’s the grossest thing you can say. The way the words line up in your mouth. The subtle alliteration. It’s like, I want to vomit, but it’d be the most fascinating vomit ever. Think about it.”
“You know, there were plenty of other parties we could have gone to tonight.”

“I don’t think my sexuality is even a question any more. The only physical contact I have with other people is carrying drunk girls home from parties. I think my orientation is ‘transportation equipment.”

“Secretary? Yeah, can’t watch that with the folks. I don’t know what’s worse; the way my dad gets flustered and has to leave the room, or the way my mom starts taking notes.”

“Is this mulled cider? That means it’s cut with E, right?” Read More »

So I’ve heard about college finals for years, and I expected the worst. I was ready to pull all-nighters, write twenty-page papers, and spend every waking hour of the day tucked into a library corner. But finals are next week, and here I am, writing this blog instead of hiding behind piles of books.

Maybe it’s just the classes I am taking—and of course, I know the freshman 100-level classes are the easiest—but I don’t feel too freaked out. Well, maybe I’m a little stressed, given that most of my teachers think that assigning long essays is better than assigning a final test. That leaves me with hours of work to do this weekend. But I’d rather write an essay than study for a test, so I am not too worried. I’ve found these classes pretty reasonable, which proves to me that all those AP classes actually did simulate the college experience.

What I’m feeling this week more than nerves and stress is relief. I’m relieved to have conquered the first semester of college. It’s not that I expected to have a terrible first semester, but I never assumed it would be so easy. I was terrified that I would be the girl who made lots of so-so friends, but never made a real connection. In high school I liked to stand out in class, and I thought I would hide in the corner in college classes. And I thought I’d miss my old friends and my family like crazy. I’ve seen other freshmen here go through that. But for me, everything seemed to fall into place. Read More »

“They’re a bunch of snot-suckers.”
“What?”
“Like, they actually suck snot. They remove the physical snot from your head.
“Ew. So, literally, snot-suckers.”
“Yup.”

“How do you one-up ‘Twlight’? They already did ‘vampires that can’t have sex.’”
“What about angels? Angels are sexy. Angels that can’t have sex.”
“How about angels that just don’t have any junk? No penis?”
“Or maybe they have two penises. Whaddya think?”

A man holding out a single-serving jelly package to a girl.
“I put sugar on it. It feels like a cat. Come on, try it.”

“It goes four a.m. diner, four-thirty omelettes, get home at five - and then it’s, hey, I have all these computer games here, and I guess I’m not tired anyway. And then I have a final.” Read More »

(It’s a scarce week for funnies this time around, as nothing interesting happens during the Thanksgiving holiday.)

In the mall:
Wife 1: “Is your husband being a Scrooge, too?”
Wife 2: “No, we’re just tired out. Taking a break.”
(Husbands exchange meaningful glances.)
Wife 1: “We haven’t even started shopping yet, and he’s already complaining!”
Husband 1: “I just don’t think we have the money this year.”
Wife 1: “Oh, stop being such a baby.”
Husband 1: “So… about that divorce, honey… oh, c’mon, I’m kidding. I’m kidding! Mostly.” Read More »

We love the internet for 2 main reasons:

1. We can do just about everything (shop, date, job hunt, talk to professors) in our underwear
2. We can procrastinate on everything in favor of the endless entertainment the inter-webs provide.

The sheer number of blogs and awesome websites out there is astounding…and nearly impossible to navigate. Which ones are good? Which ones are bad? Which ones will flash giant naked men on our screen? (Editor’s Note: Those are my favorite!) Which ones talk about all the stuff I want to hear?

That’s why we are here.

There are so many great college blogs out there and we want to share them with you. Because, after all, we college kids gotta stick together. So, here are a few of our favorites right now:

1. ThePrereq.com

2. DormDelicious.com

3. ThatCollegeKid.com

4. PayForCollegeBlog.com

5. OverheadAtCollege.com

We are always looking for more awesome sites to keep us from doing that stupid Lit paper. Do you have any other blogs you are obsessed with? Email them to Lauren@CollegeCandy.com or drop us a line on our CollegeCandy Facebook group!
