Why Columbus Is One Of The Greatest Cities To Live In
HF BOARDS

Being a student at The Ohio State University for undergraduate and now graduate school has been a real trip. But, being able to enjoy the city of Columbus for the past five years has been even better. Over the past decade, Columbus has become a unimaginable city of food, festivals and fun! Home to many new trendy restaurants and bars, Columbus has also become a great candidate for nightlife.

With a variety of festivals underway, Columbus knows how to kick off every school year with food and fun. Here are some great festivals that you will see this upcoming summer/fall!

Ohio State Fair, July 27-Aug. 6, Ohio Expo Center

Come out to the OSU fair for some fried pickles, ferris wheels, and farm animals!

Columbus Food Truck Festival,Columbus Commons Aug 18-19

Ranging from hot wings to cupcakes, the food truck festival is the best way to find out what your favorite restaurants will be this year!

Columbus Oktoberfest | Sept. 22-24, Ohio Expo Center


Besides holding a multitude of festivals each year, Columbus is also home to fashion week! Be sure to attend this year's Columbus Fashion Week and witness the tremendous talent from October 8-14th.


This halloween, Columbus' annual HighBall Halloween party will commence in the Short North Arts District. Come dressed in your best costume couture and immerse yourself in the local fashion scene that will take place Oct. 20-21.

Apart from the fabulous festivals, Columbus has an array of trendy restaurants downtown and in the Short North Arts District that will keep you from ever wanting to leave. Here's a few of my favorite!

Bakersfield - their queso and guacamole alone will make this your new go-to place.

Condados - Can we say Taco Tuesday again?

From guac to make-your-own-tacos, Condados has definitely become my go-to place.

Northstar Cafe


If you're looking for a great breakfast/lunch/dinner spot, Northstar is THE place. Might as well eat here for all three meals. It would only make sense to.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
