As a student at the College of Charleston, there are an endless amount of date ideas you and your sweetie can do. From personal experience, I tend to find myself doing the same ones over and over. If you want some new ideas, try any of these!

1. Hand in hand during second Sunday on King

What better to do on a Sunday afternoon then stroll down King Street looking at all the cute dogs! A time where you can explore amazing food, visit tasty food trucks, go shopping, and explore one of Americas most beautiful places.

2. Sunset beach date with pizza

Choose one of Charlestons great beaches, pack a blanket, grab a pizza and your favorite wine. This one is sure to be a romantic one if you're looking for a little more romance!

3. Dinner date at any of Charlestons amazing restaurants

If you are anything like my man and I, then you are a foodie. We always have a date night at some of Charlestons best restaurants. Recently, we took on High Cotton and I highly recommend, but you can never go wrong with a dinner date to mellow mushroom as well!

4. Quick ice cream date to Jeni's

There is nothing better than ending the evening with some rose sorbet or some brambleberry crisp. Jeni's delectable flavors are for sure to get your mouth watering. This is an ice cream must have!

5. Netflix and popcorn in your small college room

Wanting a night in? All you need is to head to your local red box, grab a movie and make some popcorn. You'll feel just at home in your twin bed.

6. A stroll to the battery

Trying to burn off the calories you ate the night before? Take a stroll down to the battery. If you are lucky, you may even see some dolphins swimming around!

7. Magnolia Plantation and gardens

A little out of downtown, you can take a short adventure to magnolia plantation and gardens! It is quite likely you'll walk around with a smile on your face.

8. Angel Oak

Going for a little more history? Go see this amazing tree or even make a wish!

9. The aquarium

Have a love for the ocean? Head on down to the aquarium where you can see one of the oceans best, a sea turtle. Rehabilitation in action.

10. Morning runs only to work off the calories you're about to consume at brunch

Whether you are a runner or a walker, you can go for a walk or run on any of the beautiful streets and I am sure you will always find something beautiful to look at and you may find yourself at Poogans Porch as well!

Whoever you are as a person, there is no doubt you will find yourself doing something you love here in Charleston, SC. One favorite thing I love to do (by yourself or with someone) is to put a blanket in rivers green or Marion Square and enjoy nature. There is nothing better than some fresh air and relaxation.

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.
