I want to go to there.

Could life be any more stressful right now? If midterms weren’t enough, we have to find the time to get our bodies in shape for Spring Break, watch a buttload of TV, and figure out what we’re going to wear for St. Patrick’s day.

I have been an anxious mess all week; even last night’s 90-minute yoga sesh didn’t ease my mind. Instead of letting everything go and focusing on my breathing, I used Downward Dog as a time to notice how fat my thighs were and how badly I needed a pedicure. Then I started thinking of all the other things I could be doing with that time, making a mental list in my head.

It’s exhausting. I just wish I could be somewhere else for an hour. Somewhere with no stress, no assignments, no anything but pure bliss and relaxation. Like in bed…with Joel McHale and Paul Rudd…while Paula Deen feeds us big, buttery cupcakes. Or on a yacht with Beyonce and Jay-Z, just hanging out and admiring the brand new Louboutin pumps they got me for my birthday.

Just thinking about it all makes me feel a little less stressed, less anxious. Since I know I’m not the only one freaking out right now, I asked the CollegeCandy writers to tell me what they would do if they had an hour of total freedom.

Rachael- University of Miami: Given the way this week has gone, I’d say sleep, but assuming I’m not in the middle of midterm madness, either be in a Broadway musical or speak at a General Assembly meeting for the United Nations.

Jasmine – Northern Arizona University: I would live out “Tik Tok” with Ke$ha and Rihanna.

Lauren – University of Michigan: I’d be on the Chelsea Lately round table for two episodes.

Kelly – University of Iowa: I would make sweet, sweet love with David Beckham while the rest of the AC Milan soccer team furiously made enough barbacoa burritos to last me my lifetime.

Jessica – Delaware: I would have great sex followed by eating giant ice cream sundaes with no calories.

Noa – CU Boulder: I’d smoke a bowl with my parents (because that would be really funny, no?) and then eat my mom’s famous lasagna. The whole thing.

Melanie – Northeastern University: I’d freeze time and raid Saks 5th Avenue

Anna – Northeastern: I would eat a never ending bowl of tomato chicken and orzo soup, with extra crackers.

Carly – Grinnell: Oh, wow. I’m pretty sure I would choose to spend an hour learning how to temper chocolate from a world-class pastry chef. Yeah . . . that seems like a skill that would come in handy for hundreds of future occasions.

Sarabeth – University of Texas: I’m going to have to go with being able to buy whatever I want for an hour with everything absolutely free. Think supermarket-sweep but in Neiman Marcus.

Desiree – Columbia University: I’m dying for an massage. Exam stress almost always ties my back in knots, so I’d spend my hour being rubbed head to toe with the richest oils and lotions.

Brittany – University of Saint Thomas: I would spend an hour spooning with Sidney Crosby in bed. Eating french silk pie.

Christie – NC State: If I could do anything for an hour I would want to ride a gondola in Venice, on a beautiful sunny day, with David Beckham giving me a back massage and an orchestra playing along the side of the river as I rode by.

What would you do?

Cocktail rings add elegance and glamour to any ensemble. Celebs like Catherine Heigl and Jamie Lynn Sigler rock them on the red carpet (above), but you don’t need a formal event to show off your bling. Cocktail rings can make a simple outfit, like a sweater with jeans and heels, pop as well.

According to WiseGeek.com, cocktail rings became popular during US prohibition. At cocktail parties, they flaunted the fact that women were drinking illegally (but fashionably). Prohibition is no longer in effect (thank GOD), but big, bold cocktail rings are still in style. And we are grateful.

For most rings, the bigger the stone the better. You want to draw attention to it! However, to keep it from looking ridiculous if you have small hands, search for rings that don’t extend any farther than the bottom of your knuckle. And while most people wear cocktail rings on their right ring finger, they look chic when worn on your index finger, too.

Don’t blow all your cash on a cocktail ring, though! You can find fake stones for almost nothing, and many real stones for under $200, if you feel like a splurge. Here are some rings that fit every budget:

We all look to magazines for our fashion sense and know-how, but what if we can’t afford all those styles in Elle and on the runway? College Candy understands your pain (because we also like to split our budget between cocktails and clothes) and we want to help you get the fabulous looks at a fraction of the price.

This winter jeweled clutches are all the rage. After Sex and the City, Fendi has become way more popular, but who can REALLY afford a small clutch for more than a grand? Here is cheaper version…on the left is the Fendi, on the right is a La Regale from Macy’s for a mere $39.00.

Knee length dresses that clinch your waist are hot for the upcoming chilly season . The Zac Posen dress on the left can be found at Nordstrom for a measly $1,900, while the Converse dress, on the right can be found, at Target for $34.99. You choose.

Anything with an angle is awesome, according to Elle, whether it is jewelry or shoes. Here are two shoes that are 90 degrees of hotness. The pink pair on the left are Christian Dior wedges priced at $925. But you can get a totally angular pair from Forever 21 for just $27.80. Careful how you walk in those things!

To complete your look you must have a the perfect accessory. Chunky jewelry, bangles, and pieces that make a statement are what’s in this season. The left necklace is from Neiman Marcus and would set you back $175. Or, you could choose the equally adorable peace necklace from Urban Outfitters for $18. I’m going for the cheaper one, for sure!
