What’s happening on this splendid Friday afternoon?
The Weekly Wrap Up: Lame on Friday Night
Fridays kill me. On the one hand I want nothing more than to head to the bar to drink away another long week (and simultaneously avoid creepers), but then I’m so tired I can barely get off the couch.

G.W.W.E.: T.I. “Lockdown Lover”
We’re back with another installment of G.W.W.E. (Guys We Wanna Eff)! If bad boys drive you crazy, well you’re in luck because this week we are partners-in-crime with T.I.!
What Kind of Tech-Whore Are You?
The New York Times is reporting on a new study of American media consumption that says the average person spends 8.5 hours every day in front of some sort of media screen (television, computer, cellphone, etc.).
Celebrity Chic on the Cheap: Color Me Tie Dye
Tie Dye was cool when my mom was my age. Then it was cool again in 7th grade. And let me tell you I tore that trend up. I was just yay shy of deciding that my bat-mitzvah give away should be a tie dyed t-shirt. I LIVED for the days at camp when we would make our own tie-dye. And even though my color palette never turned out quite right (more like murkey brown poo) I still thought I was destined to be a hippie. I rocked tie dye so bright that my eyes hurt just thinking about it.
WTF Friday: Ride ‘Em, Cowgirl!
Yes, that is exactly what it looks like: a washing machine with an attached saddle for her pleasure. I don’t know who thinks of these things (men), or who would buy one (actually, she would), but it really exists.
Don’t Eff It Up – Tips for Surviving The End of Classes.
Spring Break (and that 3-day hangover) is over and summer break is so close you can taste it. Mom’s home cooking, that is.

The CC Weekly Weigh In: We Love College
Here’s a secret: the editors of CollegeCandy are not in college anymore. And we cry about it every day. Seriously. We thought running a site for college girls would help us stay young, but waking up every day and reading about your college lives makes us want to do a keg stand…and then cry in the corner.
Candy Dish: Amy Poehler’s No Tina Fey
We heart Amy Poehler, but it seems we may be alone. What we don’t heart: life without caffeine.
VH1′s Tough Love
Following in the footsteps of VH1′s The Pick Up Artist, comes a similar You-Suck-At-Dating-So-Let’s-Fix-Your-Flaws-Before-You-Start-Throwing-Birthday-Parties-For-Your-Cats show.
Candy Dish: Sucks to be Lindsay Lohan
Not a good day to be a Lohan. Or a Simpson, now that we think about it…
Gwyneth Paltrow, You Are NOT a Designer
Just because you are famous and dress well, it does NOT mean you can design clothes.
College Candy’s New York, New York Playlist
Okay, it’s my spring break and let me just say this: all of you living in NYC have absolutely no clue how fabulous your city is compared to the rest of the world. (Okay, actually, you probably do.)
Fashionably Techie: Old School Games
So I was browsing the shelves of Gamestop the other day and noticing that Nintendo was putting out a slew (well maybe not a slew so much as a few) of games that were Gamecube games remixed for the Wii’s controls.
Dry Spells Make You Do Crazy Things (Like Vacuums)
It’s been awhile since I’ve gotten some. A long while. A length of time I’d rather not reflect on. A time filled with evenings spent indulging in sweet snacks and crappy pizza delivery to fill a void in my life, my bed and my….well, you know.
Girl Crush: Ellen Page
Ever since her role in Juno, I’ve had an unhealthy crush on Ellen Page. While she’s not as mainstream as our past girl crushes, this doesn’t make her any less deserving of the title.
