5 Great Day Trips To Take In And Around Merry Old London
Madelyn Neal

With a city so packed full of adventure spots like London, it can be hard to know what the must-sees are. So, now that I have several weeks in London under my belt, I thought I would point out some of my favorites.

1. Oxford University

Madelyn Neal

Just one hour outside the city, this is the perfect day trip! Make sure to spend time at the Bodleian libraries while you are there!

2. A Book Crawl

Madelyn Neal

Like a pub crawl, only much more educational (and probably more expensive)! Make your way to classics like Daunt and Persephone's to explore the hidden books of London!

3. Bath

Madelyn Neal

It is such a beautiful city; everywhere you turn there is a new clever boutique or restaurant, and you can even stop at the Jane Austen Centre to see how she lived and wrote in that city. There is so much to do, historic and otherwise! I would even recommend going for longer than a day: it is the perfect weekend locale!

4. Covent Gardens

Madelyn Neal

This is the perfect place to explore. There are homemade crafts and wares everywhere, live entertainment anywhere, and countless restaurants. To top it all off, there is also theatre all around!

5. Chelsea

Madelyn Neal

Maybe save this trip for when they have their annual flower shows so you can be sure to catch Chelsea at its most creative and outrageous!

Next time you're in the city that has captured my heart, make sure to take a look at some or all of these places! You won't be disappointed!

Michigan Rain Vs. California Rain

SO, I've just recently had the fortunate experience to be reminded just how Michigan rains. Now, before you roll your eyes at me, I HAVE EXPERIENCED RAIN (in regards of the the popular joke that Californians haven't). However, I have to agree; after experiencing one of Michigan's thunderstorms (with my college's sirens blaring in the background), it comes to mind just how different "rain" is between the two states:

If you have been following me for a long time, then you know I write about two main things: relateable articles and communication media based articles. Now, it is time for me to combine the two. For those of you that don't know, I am a radio DJ at IUP, and I DJ for a show called BPM (Beats Per Minute). It is an EDM, or electronic dance music, based show and I absolutely love it.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats. Besides having to spend hundreds of dollars on them, they provide a great companion and are almost always there when you need to talk to someone. For the past six years, I have been the proud owner of my purebred Bengal cat named Spock. Although he's only seven years and four months old, he's taught me so much. Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"
