It's Never Too Late To Chase A Dream

Our dreams have no expiration date.

It's Never Too Late To Chase A Dream
Favim

I don't believe there is anything sadder than a dream that goes unlived. All the time, we hear people tell us of the dreams they had when they were younger, but they just never went for it because they were afraid of failure or assumed it just wasn't for them. Call me unrealistically optimistic, but I am to tell you that nothing is impossible, and that it's never too late to get started on the things you want.

So what if you didn't go to college right after high school? So what if you haven't moved to the place you've always wanted to live? So what if you never started that band you've always wanted to jam out with? So what if you haven't started that diet and workout plan yet? So what!

I feel like too often, we wait for the "perfect time" to begin something. The truth is, there is never going to be a "perfect time" if all we do is wait for it. Everything in our life is never going to be perfect- not in this galaxy at least. There is always going to be something pulling us back, but nothing gets in the way of our dreams like ourselves.

Instead of considering all of the things that go wrong, excite your mind with all that could go right. We at least owe ourselves the satisfaction of giving our dreams a chance.

We can do anything we set our minds to at any point in our lives. Our dreams have no expiration dates.

We are given just one life to live, which is kind of scary if you think about it. The cool part however, is that in this one life, we are given endless opportunities to do every single thing we've ever wanted. We just have to take the initiative, have a little faith, and just do it!

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.
