Being a poor college student has its downsides but for the most part, you just do what you can. As they say, when the going gets tough...! We have decided to honour our college compadres who are out there fighting the good fight every day but showing the world just what they gots ta do day in, day out:
1. Drink Aldi's Galahad
Sure, it tastes like throw-up but it's so cheap #galalads
