Trader Joe's Is My New Obsession — Here's Why

Usually for groceries, my roommates and I would go to Walmart, Wegmans, and many other places, but since we've discovered Trader Joe's, this is our go-to spot! We love everything about the store and here are some reasons why!

The first thing that is great about this grocery store is the prices! You can get good quality food and produce for a price that fits your college budget. Just to give you an idea, a green bell pepper at Trader Joe's is .79 cents, at McLanahan's it is 2.99!

In addition to their cheap prices, Trader Joe's produces their own line of many different types of foods and it is awesome! Their signature item is a seasoning called "Everything But The Bagel", and it is perfect to put on top of anything! In addition to this seasoning, they have Everything But The Bagel dips, variety of nuts and other seasonings that are mind-blowing!

Personally, I feel that the atmosphere in Trader Joe's is so different compared to other grocery stores. When you walk in you get to see and smell the variety of fresh flowers along the wall that make you actually excited to grocery shop. The workers are always happy, help you with whatever you need and bag all of your items for you at the checkout! Another addition that the store does to make it unique is that they named each checkout lane after a street in State College! I love this feature and think it is adorable especially in a town filled with PSU pride!

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

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.
