11 Reasons Boone Does Spring Best
Southeast Discovery

Okay, yes I am a little biased being as I spend over half a year in Boone, but you have to admit, spring is great in Boone. To me, all seasons are actually great in Boone because it is one of the best places to be. So settle in and let me give you the best reasons of why everyone should visit Appalachian State and Boone in the spring time.

1. The humidity is low

Sure the humidity is still going to exist, but your chances of looking like Monica in Barbados are lesser than other NC destinations.

2. You can go on a hike in the beautiful weather

There is so much fun to be had on the Parkway or at any of the other various state parks nearby with trails galore.

3. All of the blossoming flowers

Come to Boone and smell our flowers, and you may end up looking just as majestic as Beyonce.

4. All of the water activities

You can cliff jump, white water raft, hangout on a river, raft or any other leisurely water activity you please.

5. 75 is considered hot here

No more 95 degree days for you. When the temperature rises above 65, shorts and tank tops emerge for good.

6. It is the perfect weather to Eno in

Crack that sucker open and prepare for a day of rest and comfort.

7. Thunderstorms

If you love storms as much as some do, you will love the repeated thunderstorms Boone gets throughout the spring.

8. All of the friendly people

This weather just brings out the nice in people.

9. The dogs

Every where you look, there is another wonderful, beautiful dog. Dogs everywhere, trying to give all of the people seen all of the love. It is amazing.

10. The general happy mood

All of the people, especially on campus, are in remarkably better moods simply because we can be outside and enjoy the wonderful weather.

11. Overall, the entire vibe changes for the better

As a whole, you can feel the whole town come back to life, which is pretty amazing. We're done hiding in our groundhog holes for now.

I am positive that these reasons don't adequately communicate the wonderfulness that is Boone in the spring. It is comparable to none, and you should come find out yourself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
