Have You Seen the Best Movies of 2011?
Between Harry Potter, Bridesmaids, and what will now be known as the Ryan Gosling 2011 Breakout Year Film Collection, this was a phenomenal year for the movies. I laughed, I cried, and I regretted buying a $6 soda all at the movie theater this year.
Friday Faves: Thanksgiving, Part Deux
After you start to come out of your Thanksgiving coma (about 6 minutes to 36 hours after the big meal), you get hungry again. But there’s nothing to eat, but the leftovers. Just how many turkey-stuffing-cranberry sauce sandwiches can one girl eat, anyway? That’s why CollegeCandy has scoured the internet to find notable post-Turkey Day recipes.

Everyone loves stripes. If you don’t, you’re a psycho or you just haven’t seen the light yet. Fret not friends because I am here to show you said light. Stripes are fabulous in a sweater a la Les Francais, or to spice up a favorite body-con skirt.
Ten Things I Miss About High School
At the time, I took high school way too seriously. If I could visit my 16-year-old self in a time machine, I would promptly slap her and tell her to calm down. Now I wish I could reverse the clock and have a million times more fun. Needless to say, I miss quite a few things from high school.

Ask a Roommate: When Opposites Don’t Attract
You’re the life of the party. You sparkle and dazzle and wow. Your roommate, on the other hand…doesn’t. She’s quiet. Lazy. Complain-y. Uuuugggghhhh, she has to go to class again. You try to care, to tell her class isn’t so bad — it’s nice to get out of the dorm once in a while! But no, she doesn’t want to hear it.

Do you remember your favorite song from your senior year of high school? How about 9th grade? How about 5th grade? Probably not because it was some top 40 song that was soooo goood at the time, but then got way overplayed on the radio (and eventually on your mom’s ringtone. It’s like stop trying to be cool Mom!).
