11 Reasons Boone Does Spring Best
Southeast Discovery

Okay, yes I am a little biased being as I spend over half a year in Boone, but you have to admit, spring is great in Boone. To me, all seasons are actually great in Boone because it is one of the best places to be. So settle in and let me give you the best reasons of why everyone should visit Appalachian State and Boone in the spring time.


1. The humidity is low

Sure the humidity is still going to exist, but your chances of looking like Monica in Barbados are lesser than other NC destinations.


2. You can go on a hike in the beautiful weather

There is so much fun to be had on the Parkway or at any of the other various state parks nearby with trails galore.


3. All of the blossoming flowers

Come to Boone and smell our flowers, and you may end up looking just as majestic as Beyonce.


4. All of the water activities

You can cliff jump, white water raft, hangout on a river, raft or any other leisurely water activity you please.


5. 75 is considered hot here

No more 95 degree days for you. When the temperature rises above 65, shorts and tank tops emerge for good.


6. It is the perfect weather to Eno in

Crack that sucker open and prepare for a day of rest and comfort.


7. Thunderstorms

If you love storms as much as some do, you will love the repeated thunderstorms Boone gets throughout the spring.


8. All of the friendly people

This weather just brings out the nice in people.


9. The dogs

Every where you look, there is another wonderful, beautiful dog. Dogs everywhere, trying to give all of the people seen all of the love. It is amazing.


10. The general happy mood

All of the people, especially on campus, are in remarkably better moods simply because we can be outside and enjoy the wonderful weather.


11. Overall, the entire vibe changes for the better

As a whole, you can feel the whole town come back to life, which is pretty amazing. We're done hiding in our groundhog holes for now.


I am positive that these reasons don't adequately communicate the wonderfulness that is Boone in the spring. It is comparable to none, and you should come find out yourself.

"I want to thank Google, Wikipedia, and whoever else invented copy and paste. Thank you."

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

It's the most wonderful time of the year! Christmas is one of my personal favorite holidays because of the Christmas traditions my family upholds generation after generation. After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
