So with covid forcing most universities to switch to online instruction, a lot of incoming freshman as well as current students aren’t going to be on campus. With this in mind I thought it could be fun to make a uni studyblr directory!!
Basically if you would like to participate please reblog this and add your university (or country/state if you’re more comfortable with that), your major, and your year in the tags!! In a few days I will compile everyone’s info into a large directory and masterpost. Feel free to participate if you are in undergrad or grad school!! This is really just for fun and to allow you guys to connect to people in your area/major!!
Tldr: making a uni directory reblog with major, year, and uni to participate

I just spent my first night in my dorm! It was nice, but somewhat lonely without my roommate. Thankfully my roommate moved in today, who is also a good friend of mine. I helped her unpack and we “captained” our beds together.
We walked downtown from our dorm, which is about a 15 minute walk, and got some lunch. We went to this really cute bakery and each got these super delicious sandwiches. After we went to this food co-op, which only sells healthy, organic, and local products. We bought some groceries there since we couldn’t find a normal grocery store. The milk we bought is in a glass bottle, so when we’re finished, we return it and get it recycled! What we didn’t know though, is that we had to bag our own groceries and pay for the bags. We put all our groceries in my tote bag and carried it all the way back to our dorm that way.
Walking back was a lot of uphill, and so far we’ve only used stairs. I’m hoping that my roommate and I will have nice booties by the end of the quarter, and the year.
My first night was a good one. I ate oatmeal for breakfast, got dressed, and cleaned up my room a bit. Now it’s a little messy, but I’ll clean it up again by tonight.
I can hear my RA coming down the hall introducing herself to everyone on the floor. My roommate and I are both in our beds (I’m not wearing pants) so we’ll both have to get up in a moment to meet her.
As graduating up to college means a lot more freedom from our parents and siblings, it lets use have a bit more freedom in trying out what makes us curious. In this list, we will show you the top 10 most interesting things that college girls have purchased for under $15.
The products that will be listed below have actually been bought by a college student. So even though these products may be really interesting and strange to buy, they have actually been bought so we hope that you enjoy our list of the most interesting things that college girls have purchased!
1.) Gigantic Fluffy Chocolate 12” Teddy Bear
For the first item in the list, we have this cute and cuddly teddy bear. Why would a college girl need this you say? When someone graduates from high school and comes to college, they might not be used to all the excitement and people that will be surrounding them as soon as they come to their dorm/school.
This will cause them to need some sort of support or something to hold on to while going to sleep so that they can feel calm and last throughout the first year. Although this item may seem silly to purchase as a college student, it can actually help some students feel calmer and feel safer.
2.) Yellow Pencils, Count of 144
Wait, a count of 144 pencils? Who needs this much? This package of pencils was actually bought by a student who needed pencils for an “egg-drop” experiment. This student was trying to make an enclosure with these pack of pencils so that their egg can stay safe during the drop.
Pencils may seem great for writing but they also have a great use, protecting eggs! Also, we want to ensure you that the pencil stayed safe during the drop!
3.) Multi-Port USB Station
Why would a student need a multi-port USB station in college you ask? In this particular student’s room, there were only a couple of ports that could let them charge devices and with a room full of college girls with laptops, phones, and tablets, the chargers would always stay used.
So what this brilliant student did was purchase a USB station so that many people could charge from one USB station at all times. This allowed everyone in the room to have fully charged devices On with even a few ports left open because of the amount of extra USB ports the station had.
4.) Motor Oil
Acollege student buying motor oil? Is she trying to create a fire at their college? The student who has purchased the motor oil actually had a brilliant plan in mind with this oil. As the school had a lot of students with cars and the nearest car repair and maintenance center was miles away, this student created a car shop of her own.As she repaired and helped a lot of people maintain their cars, she made quite a bit of money although some people questioned all the equipment she purchased if they didn’t know what she did with it.
5.) Ultra-protection 36 ct Condom Pack
Sure, it may sound normal to some people that a college girl is purchasing condoms, since it can be useful in some dates, but there is actually another reason for this pack of condoms.Although it may seem like a waste to some, this pack was used to see how strong a pump was. In an experiment this student was doing, she had to prove that a pump she made was strong enough to blow a lot of pressure in a short amount of time. So what she did with the condom pack was attach all of the 36 together so that they were all layered on top of each other and then let the pump blow the condoms up. This helped her prove the strength of her pump and managed to “pull-out” an A from her professor!
6.) A Statue of Two People having Sex
Sure, sex toys and other equipment in that nature is fine for a student to purchase to use in her own time but a statue of two people having sex? What can be an excuse to buy this for a college girl?The particular student who bought this small $14.95 statue was actually a collector of unique and small statues that she kept in her room before college. However, as she graduated and moved away from her parents prying eyes, she had the freedom to purchase statues that weren’t really appropriate for her age.Although her roommate doesn’t approve of this student’s hobby, the college girl surely does enjoy the freedom that comes with college!
7.) First Aid Kit
Don’t college rooms have this already or at least close-by? The student who had purchased this had a disorder that made her bleed a lot with even the tiniest scratch. As she thought her using up all the bandages and tools that the school provided them will be a disadvantage to her roommates, she bought her own first aid kit so that she can take care of herself without using the resource that is shared by others.
8.) Lube
When the student’s roommate found a package with lube with it, she was surprised and amused thinking of what the student that bought the lube would do with it. When the roommate confronted the student, she confessed, “I’m only getting this for my bike!”
Although lube can be used for other purposes, this student was innocently using this lube for the rusty parts of her bike as it was growing rusty from all the rain that has been pouring outside.
9.) Social Media Followers
In college, having a good following on social media accounts such as Instagram and Twitter can be a good social status. So what this student did was buy fake followers for her Instagram and Twitter account so that it seemed like she had several thousand followers.
As this is pretty cheap to do, it wasn’t a bad decision to make except when people cracked down her since her photos weren’t getting a lot of likes while she had a high follower count.
10.) Lottery Ticket
Sure, purchasing a lottery ticket is common and is purchased by almost everybody. However, the most unique part about this incident was that a college student had purchased a local lottery ticket won a house and got $100,000.
With this winnings, she had a house to live in – that was pretty close to her college – and $100,000 she could spend on anything. As this winning basically changed her life at college, it is one of the most interesting and unique things a college girl purchased for only $5!
Step up your ramen game and turn them from ordinary staple to extraordinary culinary creation!
Once upon a time, ramen noodles were simply known as a dorm room essential for the college student on a tight budget. But with some creative additions, you can bring a bowl of ramen to a whole new level. Here’s 10 ways to turn this pantry staple into an epicurean delight.
1. Phabulous Pho
Cook noodles according to package, but only use half of the seasoning packet. Add juice of 1 lime, a tablespoon of sugar, 2 teaspoons of fish sauce, and if desired, a good pinch of pepper flakes to the broth. Put into a serving bowl, and add 1 to 2 ounces thinly sliced flank steak (it cooks in the broth), a handful of bean sprouts, and some mixed herbs like basil and cilantro, to taste.
2. Beef and Snow Pea Stir-Fry
Toss a quarter pound of thinly sliced flank steak with half of the seasoning packet, then simmer the noodles until they separate; drain and set aside. In a large skillet, heat a tablespoon of oil until smoking. Add beef and cook until well-browned (about 1 minute). Add a quarter pound of snap peas and stir fry for about 1 minute. Add another tablespoon of oil, the noodles, the rest of the seasoning packet, a couple tablespoons of oyster sauce, and a pinch of sugar. Toss until well-coated, then serve.
3. Hawaiian Ramen
Pan-fry spam and toss it in with drained ramen noodles. Fry up an egg in the same pan you used to fry the spam so it gets that spam-tastic taste and throw it on top of the noodles. Add some sweet pineapple chunks and finish it off with Japanese-style barbecue sauce.
4. Chilled Coconut and Peanut Ramen Salad
Prepare noodles as directed, then drain and add them back to a pot filled with cold water. Mix together a couple tablespoons of chunky peanut butter, half of the seasoning packet, 1 teaspoon of soy sauce, and a tablespoon of chili-garlic sauce or sriracha to taste. Add a little water to adjust consistency; then toss in the noodles along with some chopped cilantro, peanuts, and unsweetened coconut flakes until coated thoroughly.
5. Chili Cheese Ramen
Cook noodles as directed, drain, and top with canned chili and shredded cheese.
6. Ramen and Meatballs
Prepare noodles as directed; drain. Add pasta sauce and cooked meatballs (you can find these in any frozen food section).
7. Ramen Frittata
Split finely-crushed uncooked noodles between two microwave-safe mugs. Stir 1 lightly beaten egg, ½ cup milk, shredded cheddar cheese and seasoning packet in small bowl. Pour evenly into mugs. Microwave 1 ½ to 2 minutes on high until cooked through; let stand 1 minute. Top each with a slice of cooked bacon.
8. Marshmallow Crispy Ramen
Microwave 10 regular-size marshmallows and 1 tablespoon butter in medium microwave-safe bowl on high for 1 minute or until melted. Stir in finely-crushed uncooked noodles. Let them to soften; then shape into a bar.
9. Creamy Chicken ala Ramen
Heat up 1 can cream of chicken soup and 1 cup water in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Once simmering, add 1 package of ramen sans seasoning; cook until noodles are soft and separated. Transfer to a bowl and sprinkle with dried Italian seasoning.
10. Ramen and Eggs
Perhaps the most simple of all, just crack 2 eggs into the pot as you’re cooking the noodles. Leave them intact or stir in beaten eggs. The broth will cook it perfectly. Add the seasoning packet at the end.
College stress is a notch or two up from high school stress. It’s different than the stress in the world of professional work, too. Learning to deal with college stress requires looking at stressful situations from a slightly different angle than you have in the past. Here are some tips to help you deal with stress when you’re going to college.
1.) Prevent as Much Stress as Possible.
While a lot of stress is unpreventable, you can head off quite a bit of it just by planning ahead. For example, college students get stressed out when they know they have a paper coming due the next day, and they haven’t started on it at all. That kind of stress is preventable. By breaking down a large project like this into manageable chunks and working on it a bit every day for a couple of weeks, you can probably have that paper finished even a couple days ahead of time and not have to worry about whether you’ll be able to turn it in on time. Another example is having enough supplies, like printer ink, on hand to do your work. Your professor isn’t going to accept the excuse that your printer ran out of ink when you try to turn your paper in late.
2.) Take Breaks.
While you’re studying, take five or ten minutes for a break for every half hour or hour you study. Your brain will be better able to focus on the material at hand, and you won’t get so stressed out that you’re having a hard time understanding some of it. Likewise, take breaks for exercise and to be with friends and family during the course of the week. Do something you enjoy doing, such as sewing or biking, to keep your stress level down.
3.) Keep the Goal in Mind.
You’re likely to feel like the world is about to crash in on you when you have three finals in one day coming up. It’s vital that you remember why you’re in college, why you’re doing all this work and studying. You’re doing it to graduate, get a job you enjoy and that can meet your financial needs, and make a positive difference in the world. You may have other goals than these for why you’re going to college. Whatever they are, keep them in mind when you feel stressed by all that you have to do to reach those goals.
4.) Take it a Step at a Time.
You may get overwhelmed thinking about all that you need to do. Break up your projects, your semester, your year, and your college career into pieces that you can digest. If you can see your way to the end of the term, to the end of the year, you’ll be able to see your way to the end of your college career, to the stage at graduation when you get your diploma. Set deadlines for small chunks of big projects that you can reasonably meet. Mark important days like the last day of finals with a night out with friends.
5.) Take Care of Your Health.
Chunk the Ramen noodles into the trash. It doesn’t matter if you’re struggling to make ends meet financially. You need to have some proper nutrition in you if you’re going to manage stress well. You’re more likely to get sick if you don’t eat and sleep well, which only makes stress worse. Get some fruits and vegetables into your grocery cart this week. Cook up a massive batch of healthy soup you can freeze or eat throughout the week. Find creative ways to get the right food and rest that you need.
6.) Get a Support Network, and Help Others.
Sharing your stress with family and friends is a good way to manage it. You can talk about it, and perhaps they can offer you some relief, say, by forming a study group with you to help you study for an upcoming exam. Just having someone listen to you vent about your troubles can make you feel better. You may also feel better being able to help someone else in your circle with a stressful situation. Consider volunteering on campus or in your community to get that helper’s high as well.
College students have to deal with stressors that others do not. If you work on top of going to class, you have even more stress you have to prevent and manage. Just keep the goal in sight, and prevent as much stress as you can to keep yourself well.
It’s time to pack up and head back (or to college for the first time!) to college, and you only have so much room in your car to get your gear there. How do you prioritize your belongings and pack only what you need? After all, a dorm room is about half (or less) of the size of your room at your parents’ house. You don’t want to bring more than you need because you’ll probably just end up having to bring it all home again at summer break.
Here is a list built to help you decide what you really need to take and what you can leave at home.
1) Bedding
-mattress cover (Lots of people have slept on that mattress in the dorm room.)
-comforter or duvet and duvet cover
-foam mattress top (if you think you’ll need extra cushion)
-pillowcases (2)
-blankets (2)
-sheet set (2) (Wash one; use one.)
2) Room
-additional seating (if you have extra room, say in a house or apartment)
-adhesive hooks and strips (to hang up your decorations and not get in trouble for ruining the walls)
-alarm clock (if you don’t use your smartphone for this already)
-rug (to cover up the nasty linoleum tile or carpet in your dorm)
Your mama isn’t there to take care of you when you have a sniffle in college. You’re on your own. (Unless, of course, you’re fortunate enough to be able to live at or close to home!) You’ve still got work to do, and you can’t afford much down time. Here are some ideas to help you get back on your feet as soon as possible.
1) Prevent, Prevent, Prevent.
Taking good care of yourself is the first step to being as sick as little as possible. That means getting enough rest (Read, “Don’t leave that project until the last minute.) and eating well. Processed foods with little actual nutrition, extra sugar, and loads of carbs will not do much to help you stay well. Eat whole foods, and actually cook for yourself. Eat out as little as you can (This helps save money, too!). Get to bed at a decent hour, and exercise. Take breaks to be with your friends and family as well. Down time is important.
2) Take the Time Off You Need.
If you’re running a fever, don’t go to class. If you’re hacking your lungs out, don’t go to class. No one wants to be around you, and it won’t be the end of the world if you miss class. The trick is to plan and communicate when you’re going to miss a class or a deadline. See if someone in class will lend you his or her notes. Maybe a friend can go to class for you, take notes, and / or record the lecture for you. Send an email or make a phone call to the professor to let him or her know you’re going to be out for a class and why. Ask if you can make up the test or turn in the paper the next day. Maybe the professor will email you notes and handouts from the class. Instructors are more likely to want to help you out if you simply communicate the situation and then follow through when you’re well again. Make sure you check the instructor’s syllabus for specific instructions on what to do when you’re sick. The protocol and policy is probably laid out clearly in the syllabus.
3) Supplements.
Supplements, such as Vitamin C, can help you stay well and get better faster when you do get sick. Even if you’re immune system is fighting something, you can find vitamins, herbs, and other nutrients to help you get well faster than if you just let the cold take its course. Talk to your healthcare practitioner about natural ways to boost your immune system during the cold and flu season and to help you get well when you do get sick. If you can lessen the symptoms and feel better faster, you can get back to class and to writing that paper that’s due in a couple of days. By using the right supplements, you may also be able to lessen the degree of severity of any illness you get.
4) Get Checked Out.
Head to your doctor off-campus or the campus health center to be sure that you don’t have anything serious if your illness becomes severe or lasts a long time. This can prevent the illness from getting worse or spreading around. Get any medication the doc says you need, and take it. If the doctor orders you to rest or to do anything else to help you get well, follow through on those orders.
5) Communicate with Administration.
If your illness becomes such that you’re missing a lot of class, you need to communicate with your campus administration. This can help you stay on track to graduate or to make alternate arrangements, such as taking an incomplete on a course instead of failing, for finishing out the term.
6) Take Advantage of Your Support Team.
If your friend offers to bring you some soup or to clean your apartment for you, take him or her up on it. You need all the rest you can get. People want to help out, so allow them to. You don’t need to do everything yourself when you’re sick.
Admit it – when it comes to hitting up the dating scene, it’s easy to find yourself frustrated. All you’re looking for is commitment. Yet, somehow the other fish in the sea don’t want to nibble on your fabulousness.
The reality is that it’s not you – it’s them: the guys. About 99.9 percent of them just aren’t ready for commitment. Why, you ask? Too many toxic bachelors and bachelorettes.
1. The freshman
If you’re looking to date a guy or girl in the post-secondary world – good luck. This is their first time away from home and probably their first time away from their first relationship too. They’re hoping to explore and figure out just whom they want in a perfect mate; there is nothing wrong with that. I’d rather have a partner who actually knows what he or she wants. For those commitment-bound, though, it can be disappointing finding that perfect person on campus, only to find out that he may be interested in you…and everyone else.
Yet, there’s a definitely lure to tapping into the barely-legal dating scene. True, you may be flirting with statutory rape danger, but the idea of finding a high-school fling is kind of hot. Remember those days where you would drive to lover’s lane and just make out? Ahh, those “dates” were perfect.
Pros: Fast and fun times on the town. Cons: Your relationship will last a New-York minute, and the odds of maturity? Um, yeah…
2. The business major
This person is definitely a good-on-paper kind of mate, but beware of what’s hidden. He or she is critiquing your every move and secretly writing it down on a notebook when they get home. Though they may pick up the tab, he or she may be intimidated by your success. After all, he’s the one who wants to bring home the bacon. Talk about sexism.
3. The pre-law type
Unlike the business guy or girl, your law-school beau-to-be is great at stimulating your mind. However, you should expect some arguments in your future. He or she’ll likely present a few “Exhibit A’s” when you fight over the remote. If you’re a member of the all-exclusive Mensa, then maybe you stand a fighting chance. If not, don’t expect to land this guy…unless you’re a defense attorney.
The great part about a lawyer type is that they’re probably really smart, prepared to analyze any case and can probably get you out of a speeding ticket. Who wouldn’t love a quality like that?
4. The journalist
Your secrets are never truly a secret. Everything you say to the journo is “on the record,” and he or she is constantly digging for that exclusive interview. The odds of you actually enjoying dating a journalism major is slim. Besides, they’re not going to make a lot of money. Do you really want to shack up with that? Ramen noodles are not forever. Diamonds are forever.
The journalist can be fun, though, overall. In their messy world, they can tackle a lot of different responsibilities at once. They know how to research stuff (study buddy, anyone?) The possibilities are endless…again, as long as you don’t expect them to pick up the tab.
5. The Greek life-bound
Their social agenda includes pulling off horrendous pranks, mastering a keg stand and perfecting his beer pong game. Unless your sorority is building a float with him or her at homecoming, the odds of you actually co-mingling, let alone dating, is slim.
Fraternity guys typically flock to sorority chicks. It’s just an unwritten rule.
But if you’re into socials, speakeasies and non-stop talk about your “brothers” and “sisters” in everything Greek, then it really isn’t so bad. His sexual libido is spot on and always ready for a fling. However, it’s too bad he’s still learning what to do with his “tools,” if you know what I’m saying.
6. The grad student
Finally, a man or woman who has some experience but is still fresh and fun. The good part is that you’re likely to be on similar pages in terms of your budding careers. The only flaw is that because you’re fresh into the job scene, the odds of you staying in one place are pretty slim. This is also prime time for moving and other explorations in life.
Pros: This guy or gal could be “the one,” and hey may be able to afford taking you to places worthwhile. Vacations and jewelry aren’t out of the realm of fine possibilities.
Cons: He or she may expect you to commit to him and your career. Sorry, some people still live in the late 1800’s.
Regardless of where you are on the dating world, just keep things fresh and realistic. You need to be sure you’re finding someone who is, as cheesy as it sounds, on the same page as you. Most prospects out of that will led to disappointment. Sorry, ladies. Keep it real and have some fun.
With the advent of the smartphone and tablet, studying is now an activity that you can more easily do on the go. Apps make it easier than ever to study for that final or midterm, and they utilize instructional methods that speak to just about every learning style. So whether you like to learn by moving and touching (swiping, tapping, and clicking), by seeing what you’re learning (pictures, graphs), or listening (instructional videos, recordings), there is an app that will make it much more pleasant to study. Here are some apps from CollegeChoice.net and ExamTime.com.
Quizlet
Quizlet is one of the most versatile studying apps available. Create a set of flash cards with Quizlet on any topic. Arrange your study cards by subject. Add pictures. Add text and definitions in different languages. Play games to learn how to spell the words on your flash cards faster and more accurately. You can also play games to match the front and back sides of the cards. Add your voice or add words in 18 languages (helpful for studying foreign languages) to the cards if you want an audio component.
Recording App
Speaking of voices, use the voice memo app on your phone to record your voice or your professor’s lectures (if she allows it). When you review your notes, making an audio recording of you paraphrasing the notes in your own words forces you to state what you learned out loud. Later on, listen to the recording to review faster than re-reading the textbook. Listening to lectures again can help you clarify concepts you don’t understand.
iTunes University and Khan Academy
Check out the course material from colleges and universities on iTunes U (only available for iOS). You can watch video and read text on subjects that you’re studying. You may find a resource that explains something you didn’t quite catch in class in a different way. Download the Khan Academy app to watch videos on a variety of topics to enhance your in-class learning and to help you study for tests.
MyScript Smart Note
If you like to write down notes with a pen and paper in class and not type, then MyScript Smart Note might be a great app for you. There are lots of apps that let you handwrite with a finger or stylus, but they can’t really keep up with the speed with which you have to take notes during a lecture. This app isn’t any better about getting your notes down faster, but it is good for taking notes if you’re taking notes from a book and are studying at home or at the library. One positive aspect of MyScript is that it can recognize handwriting in more than one language, and it can understand even the worst handwriting. This app is available for iOS and Android. The app enables you to change what you wrote with certain hand gestures. You can also draw and add media like images, sound, or PDF files from cloud storage. For a couple of dollars, you can add more pages, the ability to export, and back-ups as well.
XMind
Xmind is only for desktops and laptops, but it is a versatile mind mapping tool. It isn’t mobile, and there is no Web app for it, but it can be a great planning tool for studying. Mind maps help you categorize and organize your thinking around a central topic and are usually helpful for visual learners. XMind has a free version, but you can pay extra for cloud storage and business-level perks if you want.
ExamTime
This app lets you create mind maps, flash cards, notes, and quizzes. You can use all of these tools to help you prepare for exams. Organize your notes, and create flashcards and practice tests of your own. Share them with your friends to help them study, and they can share their materials with you to help you improve your grades. Your notes are all stored in one location, making them easier to find and study from. You can also study in groups, private message other users, use the online calendar, and plan your studying. This is a Web app, so you can use it from any device with a browser.
SelfControl
If you’re like most students, your mind wanders easily when you study. Use SelfControl to block a list of websites for an amount of time you choose when you study. You can better concentrate on studying and stay off of the Internet.
