Insomnia Cookies began in 2003, when Seth Berkowitz, a college student, saw a gap in late-night food options and decided to deliver cookies.

My parents sacrificed a lot to ensure I had the best opportunity to pursue my sport and become a college athlete. They never missed a meet or a banquet—always cheering loudly from the stands.

I knew what I wanted, and paying thousands upon thousands of dollars to live in a dorm room wasn't it. I believed I could have a far more fulfilling college experience on my own terms.

"The whole floor smelled like wild fumes, mysterious funk... so horrendous it didn't even make no sense. And then I had a class at ten in the morning."

The golden years of living with my grandmother were filled with understanding and support, reinforcing our bond and providing me with a safe haven during my college years.

The companies I am persistent with when it comes to emails and phone calls are much more likely to continue reaching out.

My opposition to Diet Coke was political, a vehement objection that mirrored everything that stank of "diet," and there it was, right in the name on the can.

During my senior year I was applying to schools and realizing I could easily graduate with $200,000 or more in debt for my undergrad degree. That gave me a lot of financial anxiety.

Germany offers debt-free education and flexible classes, but lacks school spirit. The grading system can be stressful, making it challenging for some students to adjust.
