7 Reasons Why You Should Visit Maine
Krista Bauer

have traveled many places in my life, but one of my favorite trips my family and I have ever been on was when we went to Maine. Maine offers beautiful scenery, outside activities, and some of the best food. Here are 7 reasons why you should visit Maine at least once.

1. Acadia National Park

The views at Acadia are some of the best you will ever see with the coastline of the ocean and pine tree forests nearby. Acadia offers many places to hike and contains many walking paths.

2. Lobster

Maine is farther north than a lot of the rest of the eastern states. This makes the weather cooler and breezier, even in the summer.

3. The People

Going out east all the way up to Maine made it all that worth it once you experienced the hospitality these people have!

4. The Wildlife

Other than lobster, Maine is also known for its moose further inland. In the ocean, there are many sea creatures including dolphins, seals, and whales.

5. Mild Weather

Maine is farther north than a lot of the rest of the eastern states. This makes the weather cooler and breezier, even in the summer.

6. Relaxation

With all of the scenery and wildlife around you, how can you not be relaxed while visiting Maine? It's the ultimate breath of fresh air...literally.

7. Small Towns With Big Hearts

One of the biggest commodities in Maine is the tourism, but the locals are very welcoming to vacationers. They love sharing their outdoor heaven to everyone who visits!

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

1. The Christmas decorations

I am that person who will decorate directly after Thanksgiving is over. This year, my roommates and I put the tree up in our apartment before we even left for Thanksgiving break. It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

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?
