Ask a Roommate: The Facebook Status
It’s so temping to share with the world Facebook how miffed you were when your roommate stumbled in at 3 a.m. on a Tuesday night with some rando. Your girlfriends at home would def feel your pain, and you know they’d leave a few snarky comments on you wall to help ease the severe mental damage you sustained from being woken up at such an ungodly hour.
Made for College: Life Lessons I Learned in Kindergarten
I wish I could have pressed rewind and told my six-year-old self to remember exactly how I felt on my first day of kindergarten because 12 years later I’d be retracing my steps as a freshman in college. Reason #4353453578768 why life should come with a remote.

Ask A Dude: Is It Time To End It?
My boyfriend and I have been dating for about eight months. About three months ago, while very drunk, I kissed someone else and told him about it the next day. He was really upset, and while we were talking about it, he brought up how out of control mad he got when his ex-girlfriend of three years told him about another guy hitting on her really aggressively and the fact that she didn’t do anything to stop it.

This Post Grad Life: The Journey to Making Your Skirt Fly Up
In my last post, I had some really great feedback from CollegeCandy readers and I wanted to touch on a great question that was asked: Having a happy life is important, but what if you don’t know what it is that will make you happy? What if you can’t pinpoint it? How do you figure it out?
When Flirting Becomes Stalking
It’s summer. There’s a bonfire. You look fabulous in your bikini. You’ve had a drink (or two… or three…). And that guy is hot. And you just want him to notice you and become your cabana boy for the next three months. It happens. But there is a very thin line between flirty and creepy.
Celebrity Chic on the Cheap: Pippa Middleton Looks Good in Nude
Luckily, Pippa Middleton was around to add some sass and excitement. I honestly didn’t follow that much of the royal wedding coverage, but from what I understand, she’s sort of an Olivia Palermo mixed with a little bit of old school Nicole Richie and a dash of Paris Hilton. Essentially, flawless.
5 Celebrities Who Have Surprisingly Cool Fashion Labels
It seems like celebrities these days have to be Jacks (or Janes) of All Trades. If you’re a singer then you’re a dancer and if you’re a dancer then you’re an actor. Then comes the fragrance, and then, of course, the clothing line, the last of which can get a little creepy crazy. I mean, everyone remembers the Avril Lavinge era of hoodies and men’s ties right? No? Just me.

Web Spy: Card Karma
When we first got the internet at my house growing up (back in grade school), one of my favorite things to do was send ecards to all my friends and family. I’d send them for every occasion and even for no occasion whatsoever! Luckily, my obsession with ecards died out by the time middle school rolled around, when I started thinking ecards were lame.
