I'm Not Kitten You Right Meow But Cats Are Purrfect For These 10 Reasons
Stephanie Cornejo

I will admit I'm a cat person, this doesn't mean I don't like dogs I just have more love for cats. I grew up with only having cats so that's whyI've been used to them for most of my life. There's just something about cats that seems to just make me smile or tear up a little bit from their cuteness. I guess I could admit I am the ultimate cat lady considering I do follow cat accounts on Instagram. How could you not love cats though, they're purrfect.

1. They're the cutest. 

This is an easy one, cats are the cutest. They're just so fluffy and when you hold them they just cuddle into you.

2. When they meow your heart might melt.

When you cat meows you automatically respond to them and they just sit there and meow some more. They're still so cute though.

3. They like to sit with you (usually).

Most cats will come and cuddle with you unless they're in a mood. Although, when they do come and snuggle with you they make sure you're giving them enough attention. That also means you can pet them for as long as you want.

4. They make good company.

If you're ever home by yourself and you have a cat you're not really by yourself. They'll come sit with you and make plenty of noise to keep letting you know you're not by yourself. Also, if you ever need to have a good convo with someone they'll listen to you even when they start to walk away.

5. When they're kittens they're the best to play with. 

Cats are cute in general, don't get me wrong, but that first time you get a kitten and bring them home it's the most heartwarming experience. Also, they are always in such a playful mood and when you see them getting excited as soon as you bring a ribbon out, it's the best

6. They seemed to know when you're about to leave.

Whether you're packing for a trip or heading back to school your cat(s) seem to know. Either they'll follow you around or sit in your suitcases almost begging you not to leave. You reassure them though that you'll be back soon.

7. They seem to know when you need some cheering up.

Every time I'm sad my cats seem to always know that I need some cheering up, so usually, they'll come sit with me or sleep with me that night.

8. They make great study buddies.

Even though they really don't help you get any studying done because usually they'll sit on your keyboard or nudge their head on your hand till you pet them. However, they at least make studying fun!

9. Looking at pictures of them can help you feel better.

If you're having a bad day or even week looking at a picture of your cat(s) will instantly make you feel better. It will at least put a smile on your face and make writing a paper or studying for a test not so bad.

10. They become part of your family.

You miss them like you would miss your parents or you have just as many or more pictures of them on your phone as other people would have of their friends. You say hi/bye to them as much as you say hi/bye to actual people.

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.
