Writer's Block As Told By Spongebob

We've all been there. You sit down to write a paper (or maybe an article) and it hits you. Writer's block. It's like a ball and chain for your thought process. Suddenly, you can't think of anything. No title. No plot-line. No groundbreaking revelations. Your head is full of absolutely nothing.

At first, you give it a shot. Writer's block can be easily be overcome, right? You just try and tap into your imagination.


You've been sitting at your desk "thinking" (texting) for a good 10 minutes, so you go to put pen to paper.


And then you realize you've written either absolute garbage or literally nothing. So you have to think harder.


You start to think about class and whether or not you actually have been paying attention.


And you look through your notes to discover that, no, you in fact have not been paying attention. So it comes as no surprise when you realize that lecture won't be inspiring you on this one.


It's time to look for inspiration elsewhere. But where to begin?


You decide to consult our lord and savior: Beyoncé. She's brilliant. She can help you write your paper. After all, she writes melodious music that speaks to the masses - so obviously her lyrics will spark your own genius.


But clearly you're not Beyoncé, because after listening to 'Formation' approximately 27 times - you give up and turn to homework's ultimate nemesis: Netflix.


When you look at the clock, you feel like you've been slapped hard by the cruel realization that it's been 6 1/2 hours. You watched 13 episodes of 'Property Brothers' and you feel so much shame.

So you finally buckle down and write words. Just any of the words that come to mind - directly onto the page. You get into the flow of things and think that maybe this isn't so bad.

Then you start over completely and finally something clicks. So you finally give it your all (and probably also several cups of coffee).


You go through and thesaurus a few things to make it sound like you didn't do it all the night before.

And finally, there it is. Your precious paper is finally completed. It's beautiful.

You promise yourself that you'll never procrastinate so hard ever again because you never know when writer's block will hit you and ruin everything. But, obviously, the same exact thing is going to happen again next time. So, get ready.

Happy writing!

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.
