The revelation on food in our community.

Are New Restaurants Needed In Acworth?
Lindsay

Do you ever get tired of driving around Acworth and seeing the same few restaurants on every street? I think we are limited in the variety of places to eat in our town. There is an abundance of chains, yet minimum authentic places to experience new tastes. That's not to deride the restaurants we have been provided with, but it would be nice to have more unique choices. In order to try something new, we have to drive almost an hour to the city where an array of distinctive diners lies. I think adding new eateries would benefit our community.

If new restaurants were implemented, our range of tastes could be covered by focusing on particular types of eating styles. There are many different eaters out there, those who are vegetarian, vegan, looking for farm fresh food, etc. The city has diners especially for those specifics, but locally we are lacking those options. We do have plenty of Mexican and Japanese restaurants, and few Thai places close by, so there is some nearby culture, but no special restaurants to offer a unique flavor to a local vegan or healthy farm-to-table eater. More people might live in Acworth if we expanded our eating horizons.

The development of creative restaurants would also broaden people's experiences. New tastes and sights are beneficial in the fact that people become encouraged to try unfamiliar things. Instead of going back to the same chains, we would be given other options of fresh and tasty foods. I think if people in Acworth had the access to a reasonably priced healthy restaurant, they would be interested. Local wholesome eateries would improve health by being convenient for the community. No one would have to drive far to find the certain type of food they are looking for.

Also, I believe new restaurants would revitalize Acworth. We could bring cool places like "Cafe Gratitude" in Los Angeles or "Avo" in Nashville, or even "Cafe Sunflower" in Atlanta, closer to us. Those places offer amazing tasting foods and healthy options for vegans or vegetarians. Farm-to-table restaurants have fresh seasonal food for those who care about taste and where their food came from. Restaurants that focus on particular types of food would give jobs to aspiring chefs. Cooks that that specialize in different genres of food would have a chance to use their artistic palette of flavors.

There has been a lot of construction going on in Acworth (thank God we are getting a close Sprouts and Whole Foods) but we should also incorporate new places to eat. We have the available resources to comprise more eating structures. This would open up the door for everyone to experience new tastes and options.

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.
