Seduce a Guy This Weekend

Actual SeductionSo finals are over. Some of us will go on to enjoy many more semesters, while some of us are done college for good. Whatever the case, it’s time to kick off our shoes and get ready to P-A-R-T-Y.

Parties make for perfect opportunities to get to know your crush. And now that the semester is over and the pressures of finals and projects have been lifted, you can focus on reelin’ him in, if only for one night.

Maybe there’s a guy you’ve been checking out for months, but you just don’t know how to talk to him. You just can’t find the right words, and you find yourself speechless in his presence. Kinda like this scene from American Pie, of which I could only find the Spanish version, but it’s still just as hilarious, if not more with the dubs.

Whenever this sort of thing happens to me, I turn to one of my most favorite films for inspiration. It’s a film called Teen Witch, and it’s the epitome of a movie masterpiece. It came out in 1989, so you know there’s great hair styles, great wardrobes, and great dramatic performances. Read More »


The Rules of Lust: When You Know It’s A Go

lust.jpgCollege is amazing for many reasons: no parents, no rules, no problem with binge drinking. My favorite thing about college, however, is its own unique set of guidelines that every college student follows. These rules have nothing to do with bedtimes or chores; no, these rules have to do with pick up lines and whores. These rules tell us when it is acceptable to pick someone up, how we do it, and when we know for sure that we won’t be headed home until the following morning.

Even more, these laws that we live by tell us that an early morning stroll in heels and runny makeup is completely acceptable, as is asking someone to “come see my brand new…uh…slipper” in his or her room.

One of the hardest rules for me to learn and perfect was the It’s-Gonna-Happen law. Bringing guys home was always a problem for me (beyond just finding a way to lure them into my lair of love) because there was always an excruciatingly long period of time between crossing the threshold into my home and ripping the clothes off of the other person.

I would find myself filling this silence with lines such as, “So, you like cheese?” or attempting flirtation with a, “These pants are getting a bit uncomfortable” followed by a seductive lip-pout and wink maneuver. Read More »


Talkin’ Dirty in the Sack

dirty-talk.jpgI used to think dirty talking was reserved for movies with titles like, “Saving Ryan’s Privates” or “Poke-My-Hontas.” The thought of whispering naughty nothings into someone’s ear made me more than slightly uncomfortable. The only thing that made me more uncomfortable, in fact, was imagining someone getting all breathy and saying those things to me.

Then I fell in love with someone who happened to be a dirty talker. And I realized just how wrong I had been.

I can’t lie, though. Our first bedroom experience was far from pleasant. We had just returned from a night at the bar (dollar pitchers, baby) and I was feisty and ready to go. I tore my clothes off, tore his clothes off and hopped into bed. Things heated up quickly. Limbs were entangled. Pillows were tossed. Then…words were spoken: Read More »


Boyfriendless in a Coupled World

girl-outside-1.jpg

Whenever I happen to look up from the piles and stacks of work on my desk, flip through (mostly) bad TV, or go out with friends to a bar where I usually can’t afford more than an ice cold Pabst, the same realization dawns on me time and time again. Everyone is pairing off! …or at least, trying to.

Today’s gimmie gimmie NOW society doesn’t have much patience when it comes to finding a significant other. Casual hook-ups are becoming more and more acceptable, and internet dating is allowing us to meet tons of people in insanely quick succession. With all the opportunities swarming around us, almost every movie or television show we watch featuring a love story, and bestsellers like He’s Just Not That Into You and 365 Proven Ways to Find Love in Less Than a Year giving any and all advice you could ever desire in the area of dating (though my girl Abigail rightly points out such “advice” isn’t always right…or even close to it), it’s hard to imagine a life that doesn’t include a partner.

The Sex Diet: The Best Diet EVER!!!

hot-sex-1.jpgSex is awesome.

Sex is empowering.

Sex is hot.

Sex is….good for you?

We all know that a good romp in the sack feels good (great, wonderful, orgaaaaasmic), but now there is an even better reason to strip off the clothes and hop into bed: losing weight.

According to Kerry McCloskey, author of The Ultimate Sex Diet, doing the naughty is the newest – and most pleasurable – way to shed those extra pounds. So instead of ditching your man to make that 6:00 Pilates class, you can stay home, get into bed and have yourselves some good old fashion passion.

Don’t believe it? Well, according to McCloskey, a half hour of sex can burn anywhere from 150 to 350 calories depending on your level of friskiness. That is the same amount of calories you would burn running on the treadmill for 30 minutes! And as much fun as running in place is, I would much prefer sweating with my man.

Even better, sex can also help you tone those not-so-firm body parts, reduce your risk of disease and make you an all around healthier person. Read More »


Forget Blondes; Brazilians Have More Fun

23165980.jpgI always thought I was pretty confident in the bedroom. I have used toys, I have done the strip tease, and I really (really) enjoy myself. But, according to a new study in Australia, I could be enjoying myself a lot more.

All I need to do is go bare. Down there.

Now, there are many issues with this so-called “study.” One being the fact that people were actually paid to study the effects of removing pubic hair. But, despite its many flaws (like the fact that only 100 women were surveyed), there could be some sort of truth to it all. I mean, nothing makes me feel sexier than when my man can’t keep his hands off me. And doing something spicy, like takin it all off your hoo-hoo, will make any man melt. Again and again (if you know what I’m saying…). It is only natural that I would go a little crazy and take a few more bedroom-risks when my boy-toy looks at me with those “I NEED you” eyes.

Ask the RA – Should I Hook Up with Someone on My Floor?

young couple in bedDuring my three years as a Resident Assistant, I came across some normal problems like roommate conflict, some not-so-normal problems like roommates sleeping with knives and then there was the age-old problem that all of my little residents could never seem to find the solution to – Should I or shouldn’t I hook up with someone who lives in my building/on my floor?

I mean, who am I to judge? I won’t go into too many details, but let’s just say I’ve been down that path and I’ve had a different experience each time (most not so great).

The ultimate and most vital question any dorm resident asking her/himself should be is “will it be awkward the next time I see this person?”

I think the whole scenario is really on a case by case basis. I, for one, was friends with everyone on my floor one particular year, which yes, DID make it awkward and yes, I DID regret it.

So I, as your CollegeCandy.com Resident Assistant, am here with some questions you should ask yourself before you wake up in the suite down the hall, k?

1- Will it be awkward the next time I see this person? (Ask yourself this question and REALLY think about it…don’t just skip to number two because you’re hungry or late for class) The last thing anyone wants is tension in their own room or building.

2- Does this person already have a girlfriend or boyfriend? Seems like kind of a stupid question, right? I PROMISE you…it’s NOT. You’d be surprised at how many shifty people attend your school and have secret relationships. I’ve seen this one too many times and believe me, you will be much happier when you don’t have to meet his girlfriend, who’s in from New Jersey, when he was just making out with you the night before.

Would you hook-up with someone on your floor?

Score A Boy During March Madness

 

marchmadeness11.jpgBasketball isn’t really my thing. I think it might have to do with the fact that every time I tried out for the team in middle school, I got rejected — being 5′2″ hasn’t been a walk in the park.

But since it’s March Madness and every guy on campus can’t get enough of their “brackets” and games, I thought I’d get in on the action … because I need to meet someone new and cute to make out with. So I’ve come up with a few tactics that will make me an insider to this male-dominated fiasco.

I don’t want to appear like a poser and not be part of a pool. So I’ve created my own. It hasn’t been easy to convince my girlfriends to participate, but they’re in. And I scored a few guys too — some of them are part of like 3 pools. That’s just way too much for me. So how did I pick my teams and fill out my brackets you might be wondering? Well since I know barely anything about this sport, I picked teams based on their jersey colors. Yeah, it’s totally not the point but hey, a guy’s gonna think it’s cute that you’re trying, right?
