    10 Signs it’s Finals Week

    For the most part, every campus shows the same signs that students have entered into this week-long stretch of hell. From the clothing, to the frantic pacing back and forth, to the agitated sighs reverberating through the library, it’s pretty apparent when we’re in the midst of it. Now it’s just counting down the minutes until the student next to you in the ‘brary has a mental breakdown so they’ll leave and you can use their chair as a foot rest.

    Feliz Cinco De Mayo! Let’s Celebrate Right

    Ah, Cinco De Mayo. A grand holiday that brings to mind sombreros, margaritas, awkward family encounters with my cousin’s salsa band… no one? Just me? Okay then…

    Baggin’ Out: Topshop Tan Washed Leather Rucksack

    I’ve got a traveling mindset going on this week. On Friday, I’m jetsetting off to Toronto! It’s for school, but I do still get one full day of shopping and roaming around my province’s capital. Since I know my itinerary fairly well, I’m trying to pack accordingly and decide which of my many purses to bring.

    Sexy Time: Have A Great One Night Stand

    There are some nights when you go out and all you want to do is pregame, go out with your friends, dance, gorge on your late night snack of choice (grilled cheeeeeese), and pass out. Then there are those nights where as you’re lining your eyes and shaking it to Britney, a thought crosses your mind. You want sweaty, perhaps alcohol-fueled, passionate, inappropriate, killer sex with someone. But just once.

    10 More Things You Should Know About Sex

    Sex. We all know what it is and how it works, but by now we also know that there’s really a lot more to it than that. Sex is about relationships and emotions, and pleasure, and connections. But really, when is comes down to it sex is about knowledge. Knowing what you want. Knowing what you partner wants. And knowing exactly what you are getting into.

    Ask a Dude: Can I Tell My Boyfriend to Hook Up with Other People?

    Hi Dude! Well here’s the deal: my boyfriend and I have been dating for a year or so. Now we’re graduating from high school and (finally!) going to college and he is going to study abroad. Since he was a virgin when we first met (yes, I popped his cherry) I think this could be a really great chance for him to have new experiences… sexy ones.

    Celebrity Couples Who Took PDA To A Whole New Level

    Every couple has a list of different things they will do and absolutely-under-no-circumstances won’t do in public. For some the list for don’t is pretty long, i.e. we will not make out in the middle of a dinner at the White House. For others the list for don’t is pretty short, i.e. we won’t have sex on the table in the middle of a dinner at the white house.

    Put This On Your iPod: Band of Horses’ Everything All the Time

    This, my friends, is my very last week of college classes. Ever. It’s all very surreal to me right now. It’s hard to imagine that after tomorrow, I may never step into a classroom again. With the reality of the real world heading at me like a freight train, I’m getting fairly nostalgic this week.

    CollegeCandy Gets a New Brother Site

    As many of our loyal Collegecandy readers know, we have an older, slightly inappropriate brother site who goes by the name COEDMagazine. We check in with him from time to time (every Tuesday to be exact) during our He Said/She Said column. And since that relationship is going so well, we got ANOTHER brother site this week. His name is Busted Coverage and he’s totally obsessed with sports, on and off the field.

    This Post Grad Life: Taking Responsibility Like a Big Girl

    I’ve finally discovered that responsibility is more than just having it. While I should be responsible, I need to learn to step forward and take responsibility for things I do.
