I’m taking this week’s post as an opportunity to tell you all about a site that’s getting super popular and that I’m obsessing over: Pinterest. You may have already started happily pinning away on Pinterest, but if you haven’t yet, you need to start. I’ve been using it for a little over a month and I am totally addicted.

Pinterest is, according to the site, a “virtual pin board” that allows you to share things you love from the web. You can choose to follow other Pinterest users (and have them follow you back). Every time you visit Pinterest, you’ll see the recent pins of the other users you follow.

In order to join Pinterest, you have to request an invite, either from the site itself or from a friend who is a member (if you ask around, I’m willing to bet you know someone who is using the site already). Once you have an account, the first thing you’ll do is set up your profile and create a few pin boards — choose whatever categories you’d like, such as fashion inspiration, recipes, or design projects you want to try.

Once you’ve set up your profile, the next step is to start pinning! If you’re hung up on what sorts of things to pin, just trust your instincts and pin whatever you like or find interesting (hence the “interest” part of Pinterest). The easiest way to do this is by repinning something you find on another user’s pin board via the “repin” button on the page. You can also pin anything on the web, either through the add a pin page or via the “Pin It” bookmarklet you can add to your browser. It’s that easy!

Happy pinning! One word of caution: as I mentioned before, Pinterest can be pretty addictive!

Time to play Guess That Celebrity Wax Figure! Recently the epitome of physical perfection himself Brad Pitt was physically desecrated when a new wax figure of the Hollywood actor as unveiled at the Musee Grevin in Paris. The fact that any sculptor would be able to mangle a figure that is already seemingly flawless (can you tell I’m a fan?) is just appalling! Then again, Sir Pitt isn’t the only celeb who’s been flat out debased by their own wax figure. Talk about tarnishing one’s image! So, we at College Candy have decided to compile the atrocities all into one place. Can you guess who that celebrity wax figure is? Kudos to whoever guesses them all correctly! Read More »

The ladies of the 17th century were way more hardcore than you

It’s August, and just because school starts back up again in a few weeks doesn’t mean summer’s coming to an end anytime soon. Temperatures around the country burning up, and I for one can’t stand it. If it wasn’t for my full-time job, I’d be hitting up a pool or the beach every day to stay cool. Which is why I’m super exited to  get a new bathing suit cover up, too. Check out some great bathing suits for just $20 or less!

MTV’s reality explosions, “Sixteen and Pregnant” and “Teen Mom,” sparked controversy and debate around the nation. Leading to speculation, judgment and even, at times, envy, these shows offered America a small glimpse into the lives of young, teenage mothers. But take away the lights, the camera, and the millions of viewers and wonder what it would actually be like to go through senior year of high school with a baby bump. Would you feel anxious and excited or alone and scared? Would your family and friends support you or leave you and your growing belly behind? Gaby Rodriguez, a student at Toppenish High, took it upon herself to find out the answers to these riveting questions.

With a looming senior project ahead of her, Gaby Rodriguez, a 17-year-old “A” Student, decided to fake her own pregnancy as a social experiment. Spending 6 ½ months of her senior year with a wire mesh and cotton quilt belly, Gaby tried to understand the stereotypes and rumors that go along with teenage pregnancy. She took careful notes of what was said not only to her face, but also behind her back. Only a handful of people knew the truth about her charade, including her best friend, boyfriend, mother and principle. The rest of her fellow students, siblings and teachers were left out in the dark with their criticism. Her boyfriend’s parents thought it was going to be a boy. Read More »

Question?! Answer: Ask Tuffy Luv.

Dear Tuffy Luv,

Let me begin by thanking Cosmopolitan magazine for being the basis of my sex education knowledge. My conservative mother would not sign the “allow your child to take the sex ed” waiver…so I had to turn to Cosmo in the midst of my confusion and all of my wildest sexual fantasies were brought to life, or at least written on a shiny page.

So thank you, Cosmo, for your use of girly language that made everything seem way better than it actually is. For example, having an “ice cream sandwich with my man, naked”…umm no. You forgot to mention that the chocolate sides are apt to getting stuck between my teeth, therefore my go-to “flash him a sexy smile” move is instantly ruined when he mistakes me for a homeless woman and not a sex-kitten eating an ice cream sandwich.

Among the many overrated things I’ve learned from this magazine, my sex-loving friends and boyfriends over the years are certain sex positions. Don’t get me wrong here, I love sex. All day, any day. I love challenging sex, lovey-dovey sex, breakup sex, make-up sex…Okay, you get it, I like sex! In my years of sexual escapades, I’ve tried my fair share of different positions. Let me tell ya, some were mind-blowing, scream out-loud amazing. But some just didn’t make the cut. (Some did and we discussed our fave positions last week!)

Below is my list of least favorite sex positions (and no, Cosmo failed to mention that some are less pleasing than others):

Reverse Cowgirl: I know, I know! Some girls are really into the whole “my ass is in full view of your face” positions. But I, however, am not.

Position rundown: He’s laying down on his back, girl is sitting upright on his junk facing away from his head, legs on either side of his hips as if she’s a “cowgirl riding her cowboy.” It sounds worse than it is, I promise. For one, no clitoral stimulation (unless he’s going to get “handsy” with you). Two, did I mention your butt is in complete full view? As in, your raisin and all that? Somehow I just can’t feel sexy knowing he can literally see more of me than I’ve ever been able to see. And finally, since I’m not facing him, I’ve got too many things to look at and distract me! His TV playing re-runs of The Real World, a painting (for the artsy boy) or his Bob Marley poster (for the college-guy). Needless to say, as hyped-up as this one is, it doesn’t make the cut for me.

It’s back to school time, and for those of you returning to your campuses for the second, third and fourth (congrats, seniors!) times around, heading back to school should be a walk in the park for you.

But for those of you newcomers, you have a lot to learn about living in a college dorm room. You’re all pretty smart, so there’s no need to go over the basics. But when I was a college freshman, there were a few things that no one seemed to mention before I left for school. You know, like the fact that freshman dorms tend to be the width of my arm span, or that there would be ZERO privacy with the communal bathrooms and the roommate whose bed is literally an arm’s length away from mine.
