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!

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
