This is the second edition of “Little known places in Atchison”.

Enjoy and go explore Atchison.

1. Vintage Gypsy

This store is right across from another place on this list (Snowball) and is very unique. There are many random things in this store, from rosaries to candles and beads to make jewelry. Definitely an interesting place to pass time if not anything else.

2. Iron Horse

This is a really great barbecue restaurant in town, right across from the YMCA. It is almost hidden, you have to really work to find it if you want the food. But once you do find it, the food is amazing and will leave you smelling like barbecue for days to come (which is not a bad thing.)

3. Artist Box

I went into this store for just a little while but I wish I could’ve stayed longer. There are paintings and painted pottery for sale but they also have unpainted items that you can work on yourself in the back of the store. It is very unique and would be a really good place to spend an hour or a few getting creative!

4. Chuck and Hank’s

This restaurant is a mix between Mexican and barbecue food, which is probably the best combination there could possibly be. It is located down on the river and has very delicious food.

5. SnowBall

Ok so pretty much everyone knows about Snowball but I just thought I’d include it on the list for the few people who didn't know about it, plus its one of my favorite places off campus. Snowball serves icecream (duh) but also has a full menu of different meals and drinks you can get while studying in their large study space. They have FREE WIFI (the password is BestCoffee, you’re welcome) which really comes in handy when BC’s wifi is down. The people who work there are very friendly and it is a great place to go when you need good food/ to get off campus.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
