In recent years, there have been many “fad diets” that claim instant weight loss, a six-pack in a week and other promises that are near impossible. The Paleolithic diet, or Paleo diet for short, may actually be rooted in sound principles.
Whether you celebrate by going to a ton of costume parties or you like to just sit around all day and gorge yourself on candy, you have to do something for Halloween because it is only the bestest holiday ever.
In a recent study done by faculty and students at Connecticut College, it was discovered that Oreos- aka Milk's Favorite Cookie- are as addicting as cocaine.
Even though the intention was purely comical, there’s a sad truth to the matter too. How many of us of us sacrifice one of these items so we can have the other two? How many times do we make the choice to go out with our friends and forget our homework, or forgo sleep and pull and all-nighter to study, or manage to get sleep and finish schoolwork but say no to friends?
We all know dorm living can be tough. The transition from walk-in closets and huge bathrooms is enough for any freshman to face, but one of the most difficult aspects of a dorm is the kitchen space.
When first entering into college, I thought I was going to have so much time to do whatever I wanted with my new found freedom. Wrong.
With the temperatures dropping and the leaves falling, it’s the perfect time to get off the treadmill and head outdoors for your next workout.
It was a typical night for the Moure family the night I received my acceptance into the University of Florida.
Telling scary stories is one thing, watching a few scary movies is another deal, but if you are really into putting yourself right in the middle of blood, guts and terror than you are either a serial killer in the making… or you would really like Halloween Horror Nights!
It’s not a grape wearing spandex and a cape if that’s what you envision.
What makes a man attractive? Depending on whom you ask, it could anything from tall and lean or super built and bulky to super pale or really dark to a full beard or clean-shaven.
We know and despise it all too well: 2 a.m. library study sessions, triple espresso-shot Starbucks orders, and nights of only four hours of sleep… just to wake up and hit repeat.
Guys it’s going down. Cue the wolf howls, ghosts, zombies, thunder, pumpkins, witches, skeletons and the divine distribution of candy.
Training for a 5K can be simple and fun if it involves following a certain training routine.
I've been a klutz ever since I started wobbling around on my own two feet as a toddler. My dad always had to warn me, “Caterine, watch where you’re going!” I was the typical toddler distracted by anything that moved, made sound or sparkled.
If you take time to look around the gym, you will notice that the only people that don’t have headphones in their ears are people who came to work out together.
If you are the stereotypical college student that I know you are, than I am sure that you spend a few nights a month out at the club shaking you ass to songs from the Top 40 list.
Have a big test tomorrow? Partying tonight anyway?
The trick to losing weight or staying healthy is always “diet and exercise.” I don’t know about anyone else, but I have more trouble with the “diet” part than I should.
