If you're a college student from New Jersey, but not at school in New Jersey, the chances are your goal at the end of high school was to leave and never come back. It seems no one in New Jersey really loves New Jersey. I, for one, never thought I'd miss it (especially since I go to school where I vacation). As the first semester ends however, I've realized there are a few things in New Jersey that I've come to really miss. After all, you can take the girl out of New Jersey, but you can't take New Jersey out of the girl.
1. Bagels
It must be something in the water. No really. It is. The reason New Jersey and New York bagels are always superior is the water the bakers use.
2. Seasons
As amazing as living somewhere with a never ending summer is, four distinct changing seasons could be really beautiful.
3. Pizza
The only exception to this would be if you currently go to school in Chicago. If you don't, the pizza just doesn't compare.
4. Going into the city
Whether your favorite part was actually being in the city, or just going on the train with your friends, being close to the city is definitely something to miss. You also miss the fact that everyone at home knows "the city" obviously means NYC.
5. Not having to pump your own gas
Apparently, every other state's girls pump gas. Who knew?
6. Not having an "accent"
You never had an accent before you got to college. You still don't think you have. But apparently the way you say "all" is wrong.
