The Alley Is Where You Should Be Goin Up On A Tuesday

Why the second day of the work week is the best time to bowl in Charleston, SC.

The Alley Is Where You Should Be Goin Up On A Tuesday

Mondays: we hate them. Friday was fun, as was Saturday, and you probably spent your Sunday making attempts at recuperation... But Monday is different. Monday is ripping the Band Aid off of the sore that is reality and getting punched in the stomach at the same time.

Tuesdays, however, are a different story. By Tuesday, you're feeling a little more optimistic about things now that the worst is over. You're still ready for the weekend, however, and it still seems lightyears away. With last week's adventures still fresh in your mind, you're having emotional trouble with the thought of waiting three more days to do anything fun.

It's still too early in the week to get crazy, and the last thing you want to do is spend a lot of money before next weekend - so what better way to spend your Tuesday night than to bowl?

Yes. I said bowl. You probably haven't done it in a while, but in case you were wondering it pairs quite nicely with beer and is a great mid-week fun-jolt.

For College of Charleston students, The Alley downtown is the place to be. Tuesday nights are $2 games, shoe rentals, and canned beer, so it really doesn't get much better. Grab three or four friends and you've got yourself a team. 

Hungry? Yes, they have food, too. Get your boiled peanut fix while you bowl, or try a Chicken & Waffles Slider for a twist on a classic Southern favorite. Also, white cheddar grits are available as a side option - I don't think I need to say much more. 

Just don't knock it till you try it. Just because bowling shoes are maybe less than fashionable than your Converses and cranberry vodka has been your signature drink for a long as you can remember, it doesn't mean you can't try something new. So next Tuesday, head to The Alley and roll through the rest of your week with ease.

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.
