If you go to lecture enough, it's only a matter of time before:

1. Your stomach decides this is the time to tell the world your hungry.

We've all been there. You wake up late for your 10 am. By the time you get to class, you realize you really should've at least grabbed an apple because now you're stuck in a quiet lecture with your stomach growling as loud as humanly possible. All you can do is keep acting natural and hope they blame it on the person next to you.

2.  Getting to class late and being that person who asks the people around you for a pen and paper.

Giphy

Also been there done that. I don't know if my school supplies get sucked into a black hole every time I'm late to class because somehow I just end up looking more like a mess. I swear I have my life together just not today.

3. Your phone rings during class (extra awk if you have a sick ringtone).

Giphy

The classic mistake, forgetting to turn off your ringer. My favorite is when they have the Kim Possible ringtone.

4. You're sick and cough every .2 seconds and feel like your distracting everyone.

Giphy

We all get sick but it sucks when this is us in class and you can't do much about it.

5. When you’re done with a test early and are sitting in the middle of the row.

Giphy

Can someone tell me why lecture halls have the smallest space between rows? When you're done with your test early and made the fatal mistake of sitting in the middle of the row - get ready for a very awkward experience of getting out.

6. When you look around class and just make awkward eye contact with someone.

7. Accidentally flinging your pen to the person in front of you

Giphy

Just me? In one of my classes, I was swinging my pen like this and I don't know how but somehow it left my hand and hit the kid in front of me in the head. I awkwardly apologized and asked for my pen back.

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.
