8 Reasons To Go To The Geneseo Farmers' Market

If you're ever looking for something fun, or a way to procrastinate your work a little more, look no further than the Geneseo Farmers' Market. The Geneseo Farmers' Market is every Thursday from 3:00 P.M. - 6:30 P.M. at the intersection of Main St. and Center St, until October 20th and it is definitely worth checking out.

1. Support Local Farmers and Businesses

Local vendors from the area come together to offer a wide variety of fruits and vegetables that are all grown locally. This is definitely a good way to get some healthy food worked into your everyday dining hall diet.

2. Strengthen Community

It's always cool to see students, "townies," and business owners come together as one Geneseo community. Main street is always bustling with activity, especially during the farmers' market.

3. Donuts

THE DONUTS ARE SO GOOD! This is my personal favorite thing to buy at the market. The apple cider and pumpkin spice donuts are a staple of the farmers' market and if you haven't already tried them, I highly recommend you do because they are fantastic.

4. Apples

Another thing I buy every week. There are always a wide variety of types of apple to buy and right now is the perfect time to buy apples since they are currently in season.

5. Cheesed and Confused

The well known grilled cheese truck is always stationed at at the farmers' market ready to serve various types of delectable cheesy goodness. (Definitely try the mac and cheese grilled cheese... just saying.)

6. Dogs

Whenever I go to the farmers' market, I always run into at least one dog. Seeing dogs on campus and in town always makes my day.

7. Promote Healthy Eating

A majority of the stations offer different fruits and veggies along with different teas and spices, which adds some variety to the typical college diet.

8. Fun

Going to the farmers' market is always a good way to mix up your everyday schedule and be a part of the community. I definitely recommend taking advantage of it this fall.

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.
