10 Cool Travel Destinations

Spring is coming soon, so with that in mind, I've put together a list of some places I'd like to go some day -- maybe you'll find one on here that you like as well. Enjoy!

1. Rome, Florence and Milan, Italy


The food (read: pasta and pizza), the fashion (hello, Milan!) -- Italy's got a lot to offer. Plus I'm 1/4 Italian, so I figure I should go at some point in my life.


2. London, England


Maybe it's just the fact that I think the accents are so cool, but I would just love to go and people watch. Or take some pictures of Big Ben or the legendary red telephone booth. Whichever works, really.


3. Paris, France


Eiffel Tower, need I say more?


4. Sydney or Melbourne, Australia

Again with the accents (so more people watching), but also the Opera House and the Harbor Bridge. I mean, come on now. Plus I've heard that baby kangaroos are totally cute.


5. Toronto, Canada


From what I hear, the CN Tower is pretty stellar, and so are the people. Plus Canadian bacon -- and Canadian TV shows (Degrassi franchise, anyone?) make for some great additions.


6. Rhode Island, Maine...


Any of the New England states, really. From what I've seen on home design shows, the houses are super cute and the towns are bustling but also can be quaint and cozy -- perfect living spot if you ask me.


7. Seattle, Washington


For whatever reason, it reminds me of San Francisco, California -- maybe from the smog or the clouds or the cool coffee shops. There's something very interesting about it, and I totally want to check it out for myself.


8. Nassau, Bahamas


Just because like everyone I know has been (either on a cruise or otherwise) and I want to be a part of that group. It seems so fun, and who doesn't want that?


9. Nashville, Tennessee


Because I love country music, that's why. Music row, here I come!


10. Austin, Texas


I'm not much of a sports fan, but I really just want to see what it's all about down there. Plus I love people who say "Ya'll" and the possibility of wearing cowboy boots. I hear it's also one of the friendliest places too.

Taylor Swift's Eras Tour is What I Hope Heaven Feels Like

By: James McDonald

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

It's easier than you think.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
