Summer is still a while away, but that doesn't mean you can't start developing your plans. My freshman year of college is ending in about a month, and I can't wait for summer break. Since I have to keep myself occupied from the beginning of May to the end of August, I want to make those months fun and memorable. Listed below are some of my plans for this summer!

Get a tattoo

Last summer, I was going to get a tattoo but never ended up scheduling a time to do it. I'm actually glad I didn't get that tattoo because while in college, I discovered another idea. Now that I have found a design that has a stronger meaning to me, I can't wait to make definite plans to get it this summer.

Binge watch season three of "Stranger Things"

After watching the recent trailer for season three of "Stranger Things", I can hardly wait for it to return to Netflix. Even though I will most likely be working on the Fourth of July, that won't stop me from pulling an all-nighter to watch season three. And let's be honest, binge-watching is part of the experience.

Work with friends

Isabella Hornick

I absolutely love my job. I even told my two closest friends and sister to apply where I work because I love it so much. Working at the Turkey Hill Experience last summer was one of the best things I've ever done. I made a bunch of new friends, and I'm so excited to go back this summer to work with them and make new memories.

Catch up with high school friends

Emily Snyder

Despite the fact that I've made new friends at college, I'm excited to go back home and meet up with some of my high school friends. I can't wait to sit down and just talk with them in person. From discussing college to telling funny stories to reminisce, I'm going to treasure the time I'm home to visit these friendships from four years.

Learn to play the guitar

It has been a huge goal of mine to learn to play an instrument well. I already have a guitar in my hands, so now it's time to learn how to play it. Since I won't be tied up with schoolwork, I'll be able to set aside time every day to teach myself. Hopefully, by the move in of fall semester, I'll have the guitar somewhat mastered.

Exercise daily

Last summer, I fell in love with exercising and was really happy with my health/fitness life. College has definitely taken a toll on me, both mentally and physically, so I'm ready to have more time dedicated to working out. I'm also looking forward to actually making my own meals instead of going to the dining hall everyday.

Spend more time with family

Richard Hornick

After attended college far from home for a year, I'm happy I get to spend more time with my sister and parents this summer. They are all huge inspirations in my life, so having them close to me this summer will only make me inspired every day to work on my passions in life.

Make new recipes

Like I mentioned above, I can't wait to make my own meals. With that comes looking for new recipes to try. Since I'll be moving in an apartment next semester with a kitchen, I need to work on discovering the best dishes to make. I want to get more into cooking, and the summer is full of opportunities to practice and perfect new recipes.

 Leave stress behind

Guen Baker

I truly can't wait to not have to worry about schoolwork for about four months. After two semesters filled with constant stress from classes, this summer is dedicated to relaxing. It will be nice to finally breathe and enjoy life without the responsibility to study for multiple tests and write three papers at once.

These are just a few of my summer plans, and I can't wait to make this summer memorable with my family and friends. Here's to summer 2019!

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

pizza
Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.
