6 Reasons Baltimore is Different.

It's a city to circle on the map.

Oct 24, 2016

Before Loyola, I never really heard much about Baltimore. It just fell under the category of "oh, just some city." Because against NYC, what does it have? What makes it special? What makes it different? But, my time at Loyola answered those questions. Exploring the city, I realized how special it is. How different and unique it is. I'm happy to call this special city my home. Because it's not "just another city.

1. Coffeeshops
An atmosphere I fell in love with in Baltimore. And there are so many #loveit. Each one is so different, offering a different feeling when you go. Oh, and the coffee is just, just incredible. That dirty iced chai tea though, will make you go back again. And again.

2. Papermoon Diner

This place is great. A place you won't find outside of Baltimore. It's exquisite. And the decorations? They're super weird and I absolutely love it. This restaurant begs one question. Breakfast for dinner, anyone? #ThoseWafflesThough.

3. Monster Mini Golf

Little monsters. Big monsters. Unless you're short like me, than even the little ones might be big too! And glow in the dark. What's not to love?

4. Duck Pin Bowling.

For us short people, it's great. The holes in the bowling balls fit our small hands. And we have more control. #ShortAintSoBad.

5. Skyline.

Remember the 1950s? The industrial past of Baltimore? Because it's pretty special. To look at Baltimore's skyline and see part of its past. A reminder of how the city changed. How it evolved and its beauty in that journey.

6. Charm City Cakes.

Remember Duffy? And the rest of the staff? The famous Ace of Cakes food network show is home to Baltimore. The city where there's never-ending tasty food!

Baltimore is't called the Charm City by coincidence.

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.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
