Finding The Best Ice Cream In NYC: 10Below

To continue on with my journey of finding the best ice cream in New York, I took a trip down to the heart of historic New York Chinatown where I tried the famous 10Below!

This Thai-inspired shop serves up delicious ice cream rolls made fresh and to order for each customer, turning their fresh liquid cream and ingredients into the desert in less than 2 minutes.

How do they do this you say? 10Below uses "an advanced cold plate that reaches temperatures well below -10°F, the ice cream produces smaller ice molecules to make it naturally smoother and creamier, eliminating the need to add in additional fat and emulsifiers to create the same rich, creamy texture we love in ice cream."

This is a GIF of my ice cream being made 😋😋The little square shop had a line out the door when I went, but the wait was definitely worth it. The favors and toppings that are available at that time are written on a chalkboard above a few of the mixing stations.

I got a Strawberry Shawty (Strawberry, Graham Crackers) and added strawberries, blackberries and Nilla Wafers on top - all toppings are free if they fit in the cup! Best of all, this amazing desert was only $7!

So how would I rate this Ice Cream:

Experience: 5/5 The shop was small and the line was long, but the inside design on black chalkboard paint, and the buzz of ice creaming being made right in front of you is 💯💯💯

Price: 4/5 Now $7 does not beat the $3 ube from last week, but it really is not a bad price for what you get! There was a lot of ice cream in my cup and one of my friends couldn't even finish hers. For $7 and a great experience, this is a must visit if you're in New York.

Flavor: 5/5 The Strawberry Shawty with the free toppings was so yummy and flavor packed. The actual ice cream was so smooth and creamy as a result of their Thai-style and I would happily return here if I'm ever near by.

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.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

Top 10 Reasons My School Rocks!

Why I Chose a Small School Over a Big University.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
