5 Must-See Places To Go To In Toronto, Canada

I recently took a road trip to Toronto, Canada and let me just tell you, it was absolutely amazing. Before the trip, my friends, my cousin, and I made a list of places we had to see. Based on our opinions, here are the top five places you should go to if you ever decide to go to Toronto, Canada.

1. LA Tour CN Tower

I feel as though this is a must if you ever visit the city. You are able to see the city in its entirety from 1,136 feet. On clear days, they say you are even able to see Niagara Falls! We didn't get to see it because it was super snowy when we went, but it is definitely a possibility. You also have the option of dining in their 360 restaurant or even doing the Edge Walk where you walk on the sides of the building.

2. The Graffiti Wall

It's an alleyway that is covered with graffiti and it differs in color schemes and overall themes. It was astounding to see the pure talent people had. Although it was below freezing when we went here, it is the perfect place to admire art and to take the coolest Instagram pictures.

3. The Lockhart

If you are a Harry Potter fan (even if you are not), you have to go here! Every inch of this place is covered with Harry Potter references. They have a hallway that has pages of the books pasted to it. It is a bar that you can go to if you want alcohol, but if you do not want to drink, they also have mocktails of certain drinks. The menu had a plethora of drinks that had names that related to the series. The atmosphere itself made you feel like you were in a more modern Leaky Cauldron in Diagon Alley.

4. Fring's

This is a restaurant that Drake, the rapper, had named. It is a bit more on the pricey side but definitely worth it. The food was delicious; I got the bucatini alla bolognese and a lava cake and it was amazing. The place had a very sophisticated atmosphere. Plus, there is a very cool sign located at the bottom of the building.

5. Fika

This is a coffee/pastry shop that has a very cute, artsy atmosphere. The staff is so sweet and helpful with any tips on what to get if you are new. I got a hot chocolate there that is now one of my top favorites. What makes it even better is that it has a wall that is covered in book pages!

These were just a few of the places I definitely suggest you go to if you ever decide to make a visit to Toronto! We also had an amazing time in the Distillery District and Fashion District where it is filled with unique shops and people. No matter what, just make the most of your time here and try new things!

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

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.
