A- Asheville 

The Biltmore is beautiful especially during the Christmas season, this is one stop in NC you don't want to miss!

B- Boone

My favorite little mountain town. King Street in the fall is so colorful and the fall air is so crisp. The home of Appalachian State University definitely has my heart.

C- Carolina Beach

This is my favorite beach town and perhaps my favorite place in NC. So many nice locals and cute shops. This boardwalk is infamous to NC and you have to get Britt's Donuts if you go (trust me)!

D- Duke vs. Carolina

One of the greatest and intense rivalries in College Basketball, even ESPN said so.

E- Eastern NC BBQ

This is the RIGHT kind of BBQ. Only a true North Carolinian knows what that means. Come to visit NC and take your pick, Eastern style or Lexington style?

F- First In Flight

NC is home to the spot where the first airplane built by the Wright Brothers took flight in Kill Devil Hills, NC.

G- Greensboro

Home of the ACC Headquarters, Greensboro is a pretty big deal in NC!

H- Home

North Carolina is home, to me and to many others. It is the 9th most populated state in the United States.

L- Lexington Style BBQ

THE WRONG KIND of BBQ. The BBQ most popular in the Western parts of the state.

Only the GREATEST college on earth with the GREATEST sisterhood! Nothing beats a MereCo Angel!

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.
