Oooh, sex and music. So much to say! In my own fervent opinion, sex and music go together like chips and dip, Ernie and Bert, or trashy TV and ice cream. Ideally, while you’re having sex your mind should be far, far away. Too far away for you to be conscious of the fact that the bed is creaking, bodies are slapping together and for some reason there’s a weird squelching sound (don’t lie – I know you know what I mean). Unfortunately though, sex isn’t always transcendent enough to distract you from these less that sensual ambient noises. But guess what? Music can save mediocre sex. No, seriously, it can. Not only can music make sex more fun, the right song can put you in a damn fine mood for f*cking. Music can also muffle your moaning, and save the ears of your flatmates. And, hey, sometimes an aural prompt for rhythm can be helpful as hell.
I think sex is better to a soundtrack. Maybe it’s just because I’m one of those weirdos who imagines a soundtrack to my life. Maybe. I’m not the only one who does that, right? I digress…sex is better with music. Well, except when it’s not. As Simon Cowell would say, song choice is everything. And here’s what NOT to play.
Barry White and/or Marvin Gaye: No. Just, no. So deeply, deeply cliched. And so deeply, deeply unsexy. Read More »
I’m having a Sex and the City déjà vu moment. I was watching the episode where Miranda decides that she’ll buy all new bed sheets under the theory that if her bed is a place she wants to be, then others will want to be there too. Or as Carrie put it, “if you build it, he will cum.” So, with that said, I head over to Bed, Bath & Beyond and decide that my even though my current sheets are white, fabulous and 800 thread-count, they are starting to look a little dingy and it’s time to invest in a new set. I’m plowing through the sheets…too green, too thick, too thin, too ugly, 250 thread-count…you must be joking…and I’m starting to realize that I’m just as picky with my sheets as I am with men!
It was just then that this amazingly hot, tall, sexy man appeared and was also eyeing the 600 thread-count white sateen cotton sheets that were on sale for $75 from $100…love. He must be gay. There’s no way that this perfect man could appear out of nowhere, be super hot AND have good taste. Read More »
During 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.
I love a good makeout playlist like any other girl. I mean, I gotta have something to put on when I finally bring my crush (the president of a frat that will remain nameless) home for a “sleepover.” Hey, setting the mood is key.
So when I came across AOL.com 69 Sexiest Songs List, I kinda had to do a little illegal downloading to update my iTunes. Here’s a few:
69. George Michael, “I Want Your Sex.”
68. Nelly Furtado, “Promiscuous Girl.”
