Those who have a guilty weakness to travel (like myself), there are positive pros and extreme cons. One of the cons traveling offers is a large price tag.

Having a student quota, it seems nearly impossible to travel anywhere outside of the country. Normally, I would suggest taking a trip to your local city and explore it in depth. But, it has come to my attention that there are several cities that are an easy commute by car and/or plane, and they are inexpensive, which is a double win.

In Arizona:

Grand Canyon

Surprisingly there is a town called Supai Village located at the base of the Grand Canyon.

In California:

San Diego

San Diego produces the most avocados in the United States.

In Colorado:

Denver

Denver has the most walkable downtowns in the nation.

In Florida:

Daytona

You can drive and park your car on the beaches of Daytona.

Jacksonville

Jacksonville is the largest city in the continental United States with over 840 square miles.

In Georgia:

Atlanta

You just gotta visit the “Dirty South” just once and experience what Atlanta’s nightlife has to offer.

Dahlonega

Dahlonega is a very small town in the mountains, but they have great wineries to choose from. And trust me, you would want to go back for some more.

Savannah

Want a mixture of southern history, small city feel, and the beach? This lovely city in south Georgia is perfect for you then.

In Louisiana:

New Orleans

Get those Vegas and Nashville vibes with a twist of French.

In New Mexico:

Albuquerque

Who wouldn’t want to visit where “High School Musical” was filmed?

In Tennessee:

Chattanooga

The Rock City Gardens, Riverbend Festival (a week-long music festival), and the nightlife will make you feel like a local.

Gatlinburg

Visiting the Great Smoky Mountains in the cooler season is to die for!

Memphis

Elvis Presley is from here. Do I need to say more?

Nashville

Las Vegas is very pricey, especially for being on a tight budget. But, Nashville never fails and there is so much you can do from dusk 'til dawn.

In Texas:

San Antonio

This city has been named “every Texan’s favorite city.”


Even though I only named 15 southern cities; that does not mean these are the only cities available to visit on a short college budget. These cities have a mixture of historic sites for during the day activities and killer nightlife if and when you want to paint the town red with your company.

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.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

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.
