10 Questions Northerners Ask Floridians
Hanna Erdmann

I swear, I never thought I would be getting the questions I did. People seem to be so curious on the Sunshine State. These are 10 questions I am tired of hearing from everyone that lives here in good old Pa.

1. Do you live near the beach?

Comparatively, yes I live much closer to the beach then y’all do. However, I am AT LEAST an hour away from the closest beach and if you knew anything about Florida traffic, you would understand why I hate driving to the beach.


2. Aren’t you cold?

No not really, I am relatively warm-blooded. Just because I come from Florida doesn’t mean we see our share of chill, it just isn’t for three to five months. I don’t speak for every Floridian, but I don’t mind being a little cold instead of dying in the heat.

3. Are you a Miami Dolphins fan?

NO. I am from Tampa and I love my Tampa teams. Go Bucs:)

4. Do you have (insert very popular food chain) in Florida?

Most likely, I don’t live under a rock.

5. How did you get all your stuff up to college?

A magical thing called a plane and UPS.

6. Why did you leave?

It was time for me to move on, I appreciate where I was raised, but it was time. I wanted to live somewhere else than little old Wesley Chapel. I was ready to get out.

7. Have you ever seen snow?

Again, not speaking for us all, but I had never seen snow. Just like how most of them hadn’t been to a real beach.

8. Do you go to Disney a lot?

YES I AM IN LOVE WITH DISNEY.

9. Do you miss home?

I don’t miss my hometown, but I miss my family. Everyone I go to school with can go home when they feel like. I call my parents everyday because I miss them so much. As much as I miss them, I get very bored when I am home.

10. Are you excited to go home for (insert break type)?

YES. I LIVE WHERE Y’ALL VACATION AND I GET TO SEE MY DOG.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
