7 Things to Do While You Are In New Jersey

New Jersey is the place to be! Here is what you should do while visiting!

1. Get a bagel.

I put this first because it's the most important. Bagels in New Jersey are amazing and a must.

2. Go to New York City.


If you live in Northern Jersey, you can see the city sky line from the highway. Take a day to go to the city. It's the perfect get away. Go see a Broadway show, Yankee game (not Mets hehe), or the Statue of Liberty.

3. Go down the shore.

The shore is the place to be. It is beautiful and full of fun things to do. There are boardwalks, boat tours and tons of shops. Make sure you wear sunscreen and don't bring your food on the beach. A seagull might grab it.

4. Go to a diner.

Jersey has diners around every corner. Pick one and go. You won't regret it.

5. Go to an Italian restaurant.

Not from Dominos, Pizza Hut, or Pizza King. You need to go to a family-owned pizza parlor. Your life will be changed forever. You will have the best pizza and pasta of your life.

6. Get gas.

We don't pump our own gas, and we love it. Take the time to see how it feels to sit in your car and have it done for you.

7. Go to Wawa.

Wawa is the place to go in New Jersey. Open 24/7, it's the perfect place for a late night snack.

After seeing this list, I hope you all decide to check out the wonderful places that New Jersey has to offer!

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
