My college friend and her friend from home visited New York City for a few days last month. Thankfully, I had the chance to spend the day with them. Being the foodies we are, we decided to spend a few hours at Smorgasburg, a food market that is held in Brooklyn on the weekend. We had never been to Smorgasburg before, so we were in for a real treat (pun intended). Smorgasburg is a wonderful place, especially for all of the food lovers out there. So in case you have not been to Smorgasburg, this article will help you get a feel for what a typical trip is like. For those who have been to Smorgasburg before, this article will be like traveling down memory lane.


1. The Beginning

Looking at the million posts on Instagram that include the location of "Smorgasburg" and you cannot help but feel curious as to what Smorgasburg even is. You finally decide to plan a trip to the ever-so-popular Smorgasburg.

2. Planning out which foods you want to eat

There are so many choices that you may not even know about. But you are determined to try the basic the french fries (aka "frites") and the well-known Ramen burger.

3. Traveling to Smorgasburg

The schlep to where Smorgasburg is held is totally worth it whether it is by ferry or by car.

4. Arriving at Smorgasburg

Cue the singing angels because you just arrived to ~heaven~.

5. Take a lap

Of course when you first get to Smorgasburg, there is no doubt that you are feeling overwhelmed. There are so many drinks and food to consume, that you are beginning to have second thoughts on the Instagram posts you took screenshots of for the food you really want to eat. So, you decide to take a stroll through all of the kiosks at Smorgasburg. You take mental notes of what you want to spend your money on.

6. Deciding which foods you want to eat.

Frites, mozzarella sticks and a lobster roll just for round one.

7. Buying your first food to eat from Smorgasburg

This will honestly be the best money you have ever felt about spending money.

8. Taking pictures of the food

Before you even eat the food, you have a photo shoot with your food. You take basic, artsy pictures of the food from every angle. Let's be real here, you need to take a perfect picture just so you can post it on Instagram and have your followers be envious of the food you ate at Smorgasburg.


9. Eating the food.

The highlight of your entire day (or your entire life).

10. Taking another lap around all of the food kiosks.

Because you need an appetite to eat more food.

11. Eating the food for round two.

Trust me, you will probably be full after eating the food.

12. Being so full from food, the food coma is real.

Visiting Smorgasburg was a memory I will never forget. Now I can only hope Smorgasburg comes to the Dirty T!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
