our fans tell us whats on their mind
if you could go to Vegas with any celebrity, dead or alive, who would it be and why?
Id definitely have to go with a rapper like Rick Ross. Ive always wanted to live the life of a rapper for a day or so. Scott Disick. Hes such an asshole. I think he would be fun to hang out with.

Answers:
Mostly As:
Your man cave is possibly the unmanliest place of all time. On a serious note, check your pants because you might have a mangina. It sounds likes someone tossed an estrogen grenade in there and definitely pulled the pin. Your man card has officially been revokedgo watch The Notebook and cry or something.
Mostly Bs:
Congratulations, you are the proud owner of a child cave. Seriously, I bet your mom still takes the crust off your PB&Js and cuts that shit diagonally. The good news is youre not a lost causeyet. Go grow some pubes and fast-forward your life 10 years, and youll be fine.
Mostly Cs:
Your humble abode isnt manly yet, but at least your balls have dropped. You have a bright future in the man cave world, so dont let anybody tell you different. Get a pen and paper and start taking notes, chief, because with some hard work and dedication you will one day be the proud owner of a real man cave.
Mostly Ds:
You, my friend, have one macho spot, and somewhere Randy Savage is shedding tears of joy. You can tell from your cave that you like sports, naked women and shit. It doesnt get any manlier than that. Pat yourself on the back, slugger, because you have the sanctuary of all sanctuaries. YOU have a MAN CAVE.

8. Turn all their clothes inside out. 9. Put Kool-Aid powder on a DRY bath mat while they are in the shower. When they step out, the dripping water will turn the powder red, and theyll freak out, thinking theyre bleeding. 10. Take their bar of soap and cover it with clear nail polish. It wont sud! 11. Erase all your conversations in their phone, and change your name to God. Text them something omnipotent. 12. Switch out their money for Monopoly money and their change for arcade tokens. 13. Put confetti inside their closed umbrella and theyll be in for a fun surprise when they open it. 14. Stick needles in the showerhead holes. It will make the water spray out in all directions.

17. Wake up a little bit before your roommate and put bubble wrap under the toilet seat. The load noise will freak them out when they sit down. 18. Cut off the top of their deodorant and put cream cheese in its place. They will smell HORRIBLE all day. 19. Tie a rubber band around your sink sprayers handle so that your roommate gets drenched the next time they turn on the faucet.
21. Run several bungee cords across your roommates door when they are in their room with the door closed. Theyll panic when they push and realize they cant open the door. 22. Put their car up for sale on Craigslist. Theyll be so confused and annoyed when they keep getting calls from wannabe buyers. 23. Use opaque tape to block the remote sensor and frustrate the hell out of them. 24. Make caramel apples, but sub the apples with onionstheyll be in for a nasty surprise. 25. Next time they get mail from their parents, carefully open it, insert an old restaurant gift card with no balance, and reseal. Theyll be so excited about the giftuntil they go to pay for their meal.
20. Swipe your roommates phone and change the ring tone to something embarrassing PHO (Me So Horny). Call them TO: SAR AH.M during class or in public CKE NZI E11 and watch them squirm.

H UT DM : O OT PH
Theres a lot of advice that people give you about college that everybody should follow butttt nobody does. Like to do your assigned reading (and not cram the night before the test), get plenty of sleep (as youre eating queso at 3 a.m.), use protection (honey, Im sorry, you have the Herp) and dont drink too much (SORRY CANT HEAR YOU OVER THE SOUND OF MY BEER BONGING). Thats why were bypassing the boring to bring you important info about the things you really care about. Now go forth and prosper--you can thank us later.

Barilla Plus Pasta, $2 Cheap and easy, a box of pasta can make you 2-4
meals. Barilla Plus also has Omega 3s and Fiber, which makes it healthier and keeps you full longer. For a simple but delish dish, toss with sauted garlic and olive oil.

lettuce, and its also great to saut and add to any dish (pasta, eggs) for some color. Popeye would be proud.
1 Onion, $0.50 Like tomatoes, onions are a cheap, easy garnish to keep around, and just a little bit adds a lot of flavor. Frozen Grilled Chicken, $6 Pre-grilled chicken breasts wont go bad, and the hard part (actually cooking them) is done alreadyyou just have to get your re-heat on. Make a whole meal out of the chicken, slap it on a sandwich or add it to your pasta or salad for a little protein. The possibilities are endless! Eggs, $3 A dozen eggs are a grocery stores gift to the college student. Although known for breakfast, dont underestimate the egg as a lunch or dinner item. Make some rockin omelettes or egg sandwiches by adding spinach and tomato for a meal thats amazing any time of day. Hard-boiled eggs also make great snacks, and who can deny the badass-ness of the breakfast taco? Bread, $3 Absolutely necessary. Sandwiches are an amazing grab-and-go
meal, and bread is obviously a key component to that. Carb up, kids!

Peanut Butter, $3 The ultimate throwback, peanut butter sandwiches havent lost their charm. For a twist on the pb/banana classic, butter the outsides of the bread and cook it like a grilled cheese. Perfection. Bananas, $2 An awesome grab-and-go snack, bananas fill you up, give you energy before a workout and also taste awesome frozen as a practical popsicle. 2 Cans Fat-Free Refried Beans, $1.50 Quick and easy, refried beans are a super filling protein source thats way more waist-friendly than Taco Bell.

Limit your drinks to about 1/hr to keep your BAC low, and pair your alcohol with water to make the boozin as painless as possible. Or just take the shots, have the fun, and face the consequences. Priorities, people.

2. PICNIC INDOORS ON YOUR FLOOR Who needs a yard when youve got a blanket and a floor! Just stuff some snacks in a wicker basket, throw a quilt or some shit on the floor, and youre practically at the park. AND less ants=easier to get in your dates pants. (See what we did there?)

3. SUGGEST A SHOWER Nothing says playing hard to get like inviting the potential love of your life over to get a little wet and wild. Sure, community showers have some serious disease potential and theres a sliiiight lack of privacy, but if homeboy/girl isnt down with that, theyre probably a total bore anyways.

4. DING DONG DITCH Show off your naughty side with the oldest trick in the book: Knocking on the nieghbs doors and hauling ass outta there. They may hate it, but your dates sure to love it, you precious prankster, you. Plus that running-away rush is totez an aphrodisiac or something.

5. BRING THAT BABE TO THE BUFFET Some may say a dining hall date is less than ideal, but really, come onwhats more romantic than unlimited pizza and soft serve?! And if you really wanna impress your date, show them how many plates of pasta you can pound. People LOVE that. STUDYBREAKS.COM | APRIL 2013 | 11

pad, something that made a statement. Growing up, Ive always had to share a room, so when I finally got my place, I was dedicated to make it the most awesome room at the University. 1 Age: 2 : r jo a What does one M n y Chai have to do to Suppl t n e m e get invited up Manag wn: o t to your room? Home ey, rr e t n o If youre a beautiful M o i Mex c blue-eyed blonde, you automatically have an advantage over everybody else (unless you have an attitude problem), however if youre willing to party [and] have a good time, I dont have a problem sharing a drink with you. Good friends are always welcome (specially if they bring drinks). HUGO POINTS OUT HIS SWEETEST STUFF: 1. I have multiple guitars in my room, Im always playing, and for the most part they are gifts from people for my volunteer service and my dedication to the Childrens Music Foundation. 2. The mistletoe above my bed: A few years back someone told me that I should have more Christmas spirit, so I went out, bought the mistletoe, and hung it over my bed, it has been there ever since. 3. My fish tank: I love my fish, Cappie. Ive had him for about a year, and it was a gift from someone special to me. 4. My super comfortable black leather couch by my bed: That is just the best place to cuddle up next to a girl while having an intimate conversation.

TOTAL FRAT MOVE
Catherine Henning
Age: 18 Height: 57 School: University of Texas Major: Biology, Pre-Med Relationship Status: Taken One thing that impresses you when youre out on a date? Im big on originality. If its not the dumb dinner/movie and back to your place routine Ill be more impressed. When I can tell theres been effort put in Im automatically more interested. Whats the creepiest move a guy has ever tried to pull on you? This guy once cornered me in front of all of my friends to tell me that if I was his girl Id have the best pot in the world before asking to take me out to the Macaroni Grill. Creepy and completely bizarre. What are your plans after Graduation? Med school and eventually opening a free clinic as an OBGYN. All-time favorite TFM or TSM? My degree is not a back-up-plan. Its a passion. I went to college to learn how to save lives, not bake pies. I already knew how to do that. TSM.

Your football game day routine involves just going to the games. You are content with your long distance relationship. You remember everything youve done every night this semester. Youve never told a pledge what to do and watched him do it, while laughing, with a beer in hand. Youve checked in with your mom to let her know you are doing okay at least once a day. Youve never compared your BAC to your GPA. You opt for dorm living over a house or apartment. You consider your R.A. a dear friend. Your Spring Break plans dont include a beach in a warm weather region. You attend every class during syllabus week.

FUN STUFF
APRIL
Gemini - This is the month to get things done: travel, start projects, study up and own it! Make time for some outdoor relaxation too. (Drinking on porches totally counts.) Cancer - This month will bring a lot of changes, especially in the relationship and school areas. Be on top of your game, and dont be fooled by basic people. Leo - Be flexible this month; your sense of humor, energy and charisma will help you. Keep your cool when dealing with VIPs the parentals, boss, professors, etc. Virgo - You will be feeling sweet, in-love
and romantic this month. Remember to remain realistic, though; this month will bring a change in a relationship. Dun, dun dun!
Libra -
Dont let resentment and indecision take over your life. Being flirty and optimistic will bring you joy and excitement. (And attract that lova youre lookin for.) This month will be all about love, home and family. Enjoy it, but dont forget about your responsibilities like, ya know, school. You know these are important to you too.
Scorpio -
1. Green hair 2. Mushroom background 3. Umbrella in drink 4. Extra hand on shoulder 5. Stripe on shirt
Aquarius - Your energy will have people eating out of the palm of your hand. Go ahead and ride those good vibes; now is the time to ask, do and seek. Pisces Seek your spiritual side. Beauty and pleasure are best achieved with health of the mind and body. Yoga and smoothies, anyone?
