Be Back Soon From A Much-Needed Cruise This Spring Break

For spring break this year, I will be going on a seven day cruise. I am going with my boyfriend, Logan, and his family. This was my Christmas present from them and I AM SO EXCITED.

We will be going on the Carnival Breeze. The ship leaves from Port Canaveral in Orlando, Flordia and makes her stops at Amber Cove, St. Thomas, San Juan, and Grand Turk. On this cruise, we will visit FOUR different countries. I can not wait to explore the world and see the beauty it has to offer.

Cruises are SO much fun. I went to the Bahamas in October on the Carnival Elation and it was such a surreal experience. I was so scared at first to be out in the middle of the ocean. However, once you are on the ship, you forget all about it. There is so much to do onboard.

They have several different pools and hot tubs, movies, game nights, comedy shows, and many more. ***On a side note, I feel like I am in a commercial advertising Carnival Cruise Lines. You get to eat all you want when you want. You get free room service and a cabin stewardess cleans your cabin everyday. I was living the LIFE on my cruise.

Cruising was not always rainbows and butterflies. It turns out that I get really seasick. The cruise in October was a struggle when the waters were rough. They say you can not feel the waves, but I sure did.

Whenever the waters were rough, so was I. I had to take Dramamine every night of the cruise. Also, it was so hard to walk around when the waters were rough. You had to constantly hold on to something. It was like a bad hangover.

This go around I have patches to put behind my ear so the nausea won't be so bad, or at least I hope. The bigger the boat, the less likely you will feel the waves. I am hoping for that to be true. All in all, I am beyond ready for my toes to be in the sand and to feel the ocean's waves. Wish me luck, guys! See ya soon.

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.
