This activity is perfect for team bonding or just with your friends. Last Minute Escape has rooms in Wayne, Morristown, Montclair and Toms River. This activity is for people who enjoy a challenge and problem solving. You have exactly one hour to find the key and escape the room. This a complex yet fun activity that will really make you think.

2. Try a sushi burrito.


This is for all the sushi lovers out there. This unique creation can be found at Inspiration Roll, with stores located in Morristown, Summit and Caldwell. You can create your own burrito or you can also order a number of different dishes. This brings sushi to a whole other level. Prices can vary with extra toppings but the standard price of one sushi burrito is $9. You don't always have to travel to New York City to try unique foods.

3. Try rolled ice cream.

Rolled ice cream is also one of the biggest food trends of the summer. This fascinating dessert can be found right down the road from Inspiration Roll at Taro.

Liquid cream is placed upon an advanced cool plate which turns the liquid into ice cream in under two minutes.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

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.
