5 Reasons To Travel in 2018
Haiden VanDerlaske

2018 is a year to explore, a year for change and a year of realization. This year you should be checking off the bucket list and doing spur of the moment adventures. This is the year to do what you've always wanted to do. The year especially to travel. I mean, who doesn't want to travel, it is most people's aspiration to travel but never do so because life gets in the way. This year move life aside and travel.

1. Why not?

Pairs is practically calling your name! Whether it's Paris or Switzerland, across the Atlantic is calling for you. Travel, explore what that part of the world you haven't before.

2. Experience new things

Traveling for the first time or trying new cuisines. Traveling is all about firsts, very good firsts. Food, alcohol, and art. It is so different from the States.

3. Relaxation

From sitting in Luxemburg Gardens drinking wine to laying out on the beach in Nice soaking up the sun and salty air from the Mediterranean Sea, relaxation will be on your mind. Travel, take a break, relax, make 2018 peaceful and serene.

4. Meet new people

The people you will meet can and will probably become one of your lifelong friends as the memories you make will last you a lifetime.

5. Just to travel

Set your heart on travel, let it lock (love lock bridge) in. Get your passport. Start somewhere. Fill it with stamps of different countries and adventures. Adventure is out there, just waiting for you.

Don't let the trials and tribulations of 2017 to hold you back from boarding that plane to the trip that you've always wanted to go on.

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'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.
