Web Spy: Dear Blank, Please Blank
You know those times that someone or something bothers you, but there’s no real way for you to express your frustrations, either because doing so would have some pretty bad consequences (like the silent treatment…or having your roommate kill you in your sleep) or simply because there’s no one to vent to (your mom just wouldn’t understand)?

Dating Myths Even the Smartest Women Believe In
Something happens from the time when we are kids to adults. We learn that if we want to be successful at a career, buy a house, save for retirement or achieve any major milestone in life we have to work for it. Yet, when I talk to people about finding “the one,” they want it to happen naturally. Organically. They will “know it when they see it.”
8 Under $20: All Aboard the Nautical Theme Boat
I am a firm believer that everyone should be able to wear sailor-inspired clothing even if they haven’t been on a boat once this entire summer (which just so happens to be the story for this girl). Nautical style is so crisp and outdoorsy; a total breath of fresh sea air. And when you’re on a boat, there’s nothing better than nautical duds with your flippy floppies.
The Jersey Shore Kids Go On Strike – Send In The Replacements!
Guess who decided to up and pull a diva move? No, Mariah Carey isn’t castrating an intern for bringing her flat water instead of sparking (though, probably she is). It’s those darn Jersey Shore kids! Rumor has it that before the second season has even premiered, they’re fighting for salary raises, refusing to do a third season unless their demands are met.
Talkin’ Babies With Maci from MTV’s Teen Mom
The new season of Teen Mom premiers tonight at 10 PM on MTV and this CollegeCandy intern couldn’t be more excited. Not only do we get to find out if Amber’s havin’ another baby, but I had the chance to chat with everyone’s favorite mama, Maci. She filled me in on how her life has changed since she moved from Chattanooga, Bentley started talking up a storm, and even gave the CollegeCandy readers some invaluable dating advice.
The Post-Grad Journey: A Lesson in Life
Life lesson #43298: What you think you should do is sometimes completely different than what you want to do – If only I could jump back to last summer to tell myself!

Tuffy Luv Has Conniptions
Dear Tuffy Luv, The last two years have been a whirlwind for me. I was really overweight pretty much all throughout high school and was really shy/awkward towards anyone who I didn’t know very well. A year after I graduated high school, I decided to start losing weight and since then have lost nearly sixty pounds. I still have a little weight to lose, but this new body of mine has definitely caused me to feel more comfortable with myself, and the male attention has increased drastically
Get Inside the Male Brain with AskMen’s ‘Great Male Survey’
Okay, so Cosmo recently paired up with AskMen.com and conducted the survey to end all surveys. That’s right, they asked the questions you’ve always wanted answered, but were too embarrassed/afraid/clueless to ask.
Now Showing: The Runaways on DVD
Have you ever seen a movie about a songwriter or a filmmaker where the things around them inspire their art, like Walk the Line about Johnny Cash? The Runaways is not that movie. Fowley inspires the band’s songs. Fowley tells the band to think like guys, to only care about orgasms, to give themselves to the crowd then take themselves away at the last second.
Cosmo Says the Darndest Things: August Edition
The minute, and I mean the minute, I spotted Britney Spear’s discolored blond extensions on the cover of Cosmopolitan this month, I grasped the magazine tightly in my fingertips, sighed extravagantly and hugged my copy. This means I get to read one of those famous Cosmo Quizzes filled out by B. Spears!

The Bachelorette: Another One Bites the Dust
Come. On. Come on! Did I miss the memo? Was last night’s Bachelorette episode actually Frank’s screen test for a new Nicholas Sparks film? One more silent tear and I would have been begging for mercy. That entire subplot was – am I allowed to say it? – so freakin’ fake. I’m insulted Chris Harrison would try and pass that off as reality. Shame on you!

Intern Diaries: Mastering the Art of Passing the Time
Some days at my internship I get to do so many fun things – like a random lunch with Kendra Wilkinson or Edie Falco, or doing a video interview of an all-male a capella group (OK, that one was a little strange…). Some days, I’m just kept busy doing any number of things, whether it’s searching for the perfect ice cream cake at Ben & Jerry’s, researching celebrities who have said they want to renew their marriages, or helping out in the fashion closet (a personal fav).
