As January comes to a close and Valentine's day comes closer, it may be smart to get a head start on the holiday. In my experience when it comes to thinking of new inventive ways to surprise people you love on Valentine's Day, it gets increasingly harder to avoid repeating gift ideas. So this year I intend to surprise my S.O. with a Valentine's Day catered to his love language!

If you're struggling with coming up with new ideas this year look no further. Here is a list of ways to spoil the people in your life based on their love language.

Quality Time

The classic gift for someone who loves quality time is to surprise them with a new movie and a night in. Spending time with someone you love watching their favorite movie never gets old. These people also tend to be more spontaneous so look up romantic date night spots around you. Perhaps a trip to your local botanical gardens for a walk, trying a cooking class together, or doing something bold like skydiving! Gifts for this type are new things for your S.O. to try with you like a new movie, a new game, or tickets to a new band or event etc.

Physical Touch

For the classic, a massage!

Whether your partner would prefer an intimate massage by the fire at home or a scheduled couples massage this always seems to make someone with a love language in physical touch happy! For people looking for more untraditional ways to spend Valentine's Day as a Physical Touch lover, try back painting!

It is intimate and fun to do with a partner. Gifts for this type include: new blankets, pillows, or comfy clothes!

Acts of Service

Acts of Service is pretty straight forward in what they like. For Valentine's Day complete a couple of things on their to-do list to take it off their plate or drive out of your way to get their favorite coffee. These people also love breakfast in bed or homemade things you make for them. Gift ideas for this type of love language include: homemade cards, gifts, or anything that highlights how special the occasion is.

Words of Affirmation

People who enjoy words love to be told how much you care. So love letters are a very simple way of accomplishing this. As well as poems or personalized lyrics/songs. Pouring your heart out to these types is what makes them the happiest. Gifts for these types include: letters, something as simple as notes on a bathroom mirror, poems, or detailed handwritten cards.

Receiving Gifts

Probably the easiest out of the languages for Valentine's Day is gifts. Flowers, teddy bears, and chocolates always hit home with these types. If this is too tired think about making flowers out of paper or choosing her favorite meal opposed to chocolates. Anything you make will also resonate with these people. Gifts for these types include: cards, chocolates, stuffed animals, flowers, pictures, or customized Etsy finds!

I hope this helped some of you, and Happy Valentine's shopping!

beer on the beach

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:

Bruce Springsteen's Top 7 Lyrics

Everything Bruce says in his classic rock songs.

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.

You cannot beat the beach. Believe it or not (which many people may not), New England has a long and beautiful coastline. Most of my high school summers were spent sitting on the Wall at Hampton Beach, getting sunburnt and eating Acai bowls from The Secret Spot. The Wall was the place to be both during the day and at night. We begin our days there with a KB's bagel and coffee, and end them with pizza and ice cream. It’s not a New England summer without that 4 p.m. text from someone, “Who wants to meet at the Wall tonight?” Nighttime is for Tripoli’s Pizza, the sound of waves, and wishes on shooting stars. Wednesday nights are especially important, as those are the nights that Hampton Beach sets off the weekly firework display.
