5 Foods I Didn’t Know I Liked Until I Was 20

Have you ever encountered a food that you were too scared to try, or perhaps a food that you swore never to have again? If so, you are not alone.

1. Guacamole
Let's be honest; it's green, and it freaks me out, okay? My uncle made me try it at Barrio and ever since, it's my everyday snack (oops...I am eating it as I write this).
2. Oranges
Okay, this one is annoying because I was TOLD I didn't like oranges by my mom (she just didn't want me to eat them because they were HER favorite) but it is to the point where for my birthday my grandma buys me oranges...
3. Greek Yogurt
Texture is totally a thing for me, and I could never eat yogurt that wasn't the Danimals smoothies (I know I'm like 5 years old) but working at a smoothie shop for a few years has made me broaden my yogurt choices, and now I'm a fan of eating greek yogurt for breakfast.
4. Tomatoes
When I was really young, my great grandma had a garden, and she had me try one of her tomatoes (my first tomato ever). It was rotten inside, and I bit into it, so you probably see why I never wanted to think about them again, BUT people keep telling me to man up so if I chop them up and add them to my food I can finally eat them!
5. Onions
These just mess up my stomach but hey--they flavor to food in the best way, so I put up with it.

Eating new foods totally counts towards growing up, right?

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.

Yes, the math major is doing a math-related post. What are the odds? I'll have to calculate it later. Many people have probably learned about the Fibonacci sequence in their high school math classes. However, I thought I would just refresh everyone's memories and show how math can be beautiful and apply to physical things everywhere around us with stunning examples.

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.
