It's A Little Girls Dream To Get Married And Now That I'm A Big Girl, I Admit I Have Wedding Fever

So one of my best friends just got married and within the next year or so, majority of my friends will be getting married or engaged. I am still the single pringle who gets to be in all of them. I had such a wonderful time being a part of the wedding planning and the wedding itself and once we started decorating I began thinking about my own wedding. I am far from getting married, but I'm sure like most girls my age, I have a Pinterest board dedicated to "That Big Day." On this board, I have table arrangements and cute ways to decorate where I will get married.

It is a little girl's dream to get married and to have the most perfect wedding. Since I was little, I have been thinking about what I would want to have at my wedding and where I would want it. Flash forward many years and I still have the same ideas. I want to wear my mom's dress or have a boho dress. I want to get married in a church in the mountains. I think it's amusing that we have these ideas about our weddings when we're not even close to getting married. My favorite thing to do is to watch wedding videos and to get inspiration.

I dream about the day that I get married and I see it as one of the greatest accomplishments you have. I think that it's so cool when you get married because you get to have a day that it all about you and your significant other. I like to tell my friends who are in relationships or are engaged that I'm going to die alone, which is a silly thing for a twenty-year-old to say. I just asked my sister if she had planned out her wedding out and she said that she had majority of it planned out. I think it makes planning for your actual wedding easier once you already have ideas of what you want in your head.

I think it's so much fun to plan out something that you'll have one day. When you are pinning different things, you get to pretend like you're actually planning for a wedding. It is something that my friends and I can spend hours talking about, even though none of us are getting married. When you're getting married, there are a few things you have to pay the most attention to and some that aren't that important in the long fun. The first one is how the table decorations look or making everything look perfect. Life happens sometimes and you just have to roll with the punches.

The most important thing is that everything is there. You have to make sure that you have all the right flowers and clothes. When you are at your wedding and things start happening that probably shouldn't, like losing something, you have to remember what the day is really for. It's not for the pretty DIY things you made that don't want to stay together or the way people are sitting, it is about the love that you and the person you're marrying share.

beer on the beach

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.
