An Open Letter To The Brokenhearted

This life is too short to be anything but happy.

An Open Letter To The Brokenhearted

"Don't let what he wants eclipse what you need. He is very dreamy, but he is not the sun; you are."

I know right now you think your world is coming to an end, but it is only the beginning.

Sure, you just lost someone you loved and might've imagined spending the rest of your life with, but just think, losing him just means you're one steping stone closer to your Prince Charming.

For so long, you catered to his needs, made sure he was happy, spent your time with him, spoiled him, invested in him. Now, it's your turn to be happy, spend your time doing what you love, spoiling yourself.

I know right now it hurts, but it will soon get better. You will find the light at the end of the tunnel, you will feel valuable, you will be happy, you will be you. A new, happier you.

You didn't realize it then and I'm sure you don't now, but God has a plan for you. That's why He removed your not Prince Charming from your life.

You are worth so much more than you will ever realize. You are beautiful. You are kind. You are smart. You are an incredible woman. You will make someone happy one day. Maybe not tomorrow, maybe not next week, maybe not even next year, but soon. Until then, live your life. You're young. Focus on school. Do things you've always wanted to experience. Meet new friends. Try new foods. Be happy.

This life is too short to be anything but happy

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

Anyone who was born and raised in New Jersey (or anywhere really) knows of Bruce Springsteen, whether or not they like him is a whole other situation. I hope that his hundreds of classic rock songs and famous high energy performances, even in his sixties he can put on better concerts than people half his age, are at least recognizable to people of all ages. Love him or hate him (I identify with the former) you have to admit that some of his songs and interviews have inspirational quotes and lyrics.

New England Summers Are The BEST Summers

Why you should spend your next summer in New England.

Marconi Beach

Three years ago, I chose to attend college in Philadelphia, approximately 360 miles away from my small town in New Hampshire. I have learned many valuable lessons away from home, and have thoroughly enjoyed my time spent in Pennsylvania. One thing that my experience has taught me, however, is that it is absolutely impossible to beat a New England summer.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
