Overheard: Dry Heaves
(Two girls, walking.)
Girl 1: So how was last night?
Girl 2: It was great. Craziest sex I’ve ever had…. But I’m worried. I think he might like me.
Our Grammy Predictions
The Grammys are only a few hours away! We haven’t been this excited since the Golden Globes…2 weeks ago. But to be fair, we didn’t really care who won the awards at the Globes – we just wanted to see what all those people were going to wear on the Red Carpet. The Grammys are different; music plays such an important part in our lives and we feel totally connected to the people who bring it to us.

The Morning After: Friends With Bad Benefits
I had known Jon (name has been changed since I know homeboy reads this site) for a little over a year. Our entire relationship was based on drinking together; we met through a friend at a bar, exchanged numbers and quickly became one another’s drinking friends. You know, the one you call when you’re drunk at 10:30 on a Friday and looking for fun people to meet up with.
Intro To Cooking: Easy Veggie Chili
In the eye of this winter season, I’m always looking for something to go with my Snuggie and countless hours of Stats homework (and the occasional break for Teen Cribs re-runs). It is not every day when you find a remedy that can cure the winter blues and come in warm, fulfilling, cheap, and easy form.
CC Beauty Live: Daytime Colors
If there’s one question I get asked (as the resident beauty expert in my group of friends) it’s, “What colors can I wear during the day?” I’ve heard this question A LOT and my answer is always the same: Wear any color you want!
One Month Challenge: Sober
When I told my friends I would be giving up alcohol for an entire month, I got one of three reactions: 1. Why would you do that?! 2. I bet you $100 you don’t make it. 3. Why the hell would you do that?!
Singing the Winter Blues
“Winter Wonderland,” “White Christmas”…sugarcoat it all you want but winter sucks. Unless you are a skiing or snowboarding fanatic, you feel my pain. I didn’t even like sledding as a child; you got to the bottom of the hill, OK, then what? You run back up to the top, your hands numb, then do it again? Awesome.

CollegeCandy’s 2010 Grammy Playlist
It’s time to roll out the red carpet… THE GRAMMYS ARE HERE!! Well, almost. You gotta wait until tomorrow to catch the big show, which leaves just enough time to get (fist) pumped up. And what better way to prepare for the big event than by having a Grammy Nominee dance party?
Facebook and Dating: Where’s The Mystery?
So with the dawn of technology, we are given a whole new arsenal of tools to aid us in the battlefield that is modern dating. We have texting, phones that make us available anywhere, Twitter, and most useful (yet at the same time lethal): Facebook.
From CollegeFashion: Bright, Awake Looking Eyes
I am not a morning person. Never have been, never will be. And it shows on my face in the form of dark circles and tired eyes. Even though I always want to crawl back into my comfy bed and get more rest, I know that with a touch of the right makeup I can instantly fix that problem.
Candy Dish: Bye Bye, Ugly Betty
• Oh no! Ugly Betty got cancelled?!
• Is Leo gonna put a ring on it?
• Is Kelis trying to pull a Gaga on us?
• This is an interesting model spread…
• 9 glamorous hairstyles to try.
• Nick Cannon wants babies.
Weekly Wrap Up: January Signs Off
My favorite combination of four letters is finally here: TGIF. Whether you were finishing up your first week of school, or applying for internships, this week was a productive one for all of us. And so was this month! Is January really almost catapulting us into February? The month was especially productive for the fist pumping guidos of Jersey Shore, as the cost per fist pump sky rocketed.
Jerzify Yourself
It’s Friday. My brain stopped working 3 days ago. In lieu of doing actual work I’ve spent the past 2 hours catching up on TFLN, stalking photos of people I do not know on Facebook and trying to figure out what will be going in my flask tonight.
