I've explored many places in my short 21 years of life. I've loved every bit of it. I wanted to share some of my favorite things about traveling!

Meeting new people

These dudes are my favorite!

Making new memories

Finding a street in my favorite city named "after me" was pretty cool!

Exploring new places 

I've been to New York City twice. I'm not a big city person, but this city is something else. I loved walking around and just exploring!

Having to leave your house

Something new? Groundbreaking.

Missing work

It's good for the soul.

Getting sick and tired of learning new things

Nope, you won't get tired of it at all.

Wanting to go to a whole new destination 

I have always wanted to go to Milan, Italy! Hopefully, I'll get there one day!

Doing something that could change your life

LIZZIE MCGUIRE MET THAT TRASH CAN AND HER LIFE CHANGED. I sincerely hope you don't meet a trash can, though.

Seeing the world, even though it's so boring

LOL JK.

 Looking back to the trip all the time

About a year ago I went to Canada, and I haven't been the same since.

 Ditching your boring town

There's about two things to do in my town — eating and committing illegal stuff.

It's up to you! I think traveling is pretty cool!

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?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. 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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
