8 Things Only Massachusetts People Will Understand

1. We do not pronounce our r's.

Yeah, we may talk a little weird to you, but get over it because it is not going to change.

2. Rotaries.

They are wicked easy to use, you yield into it and you yield out, what is the big deal?

3. Coffee Milk.

Even though coffee milk is technically the state drink of Rhode Island, it is a delicious drink that is not just coffee with milk, but a wicked awesome syrup that makes your milk into a delicious coffee tasting drink for all ages.

4. We love our Dunkin Donuts.

Dunkin Donuts is the best place to get your coffee, and even grab a munchkin or two. Heck, we can even tell you directions just by using Dunkin Donuts as a landmark!

5. We love our teams.

Whether we are routing for the Red Sox, Bruins, Patriots or Celtics, we all love our teams. We are not those kinds of fans where we love them only when we are winning. That is just a bonus.

6. Boston, is and forever will be the best place on Earth.

Everyone is usually infatuating with going to New York City, well we have something better and it is called Boston, the best place on earth, and you can always catch the best baseball games!

7. Road rage.

We know we have road rage, but it is not our fault when you have a person from out of state that is driving the actual speed limit in the left hand lane. Get out of our way, and we won't have a problem.

8. Cape Cod

We refer to Cape Cod as The Cape and if we are telling someone that we are going to The Cape we are "going down The Cape".

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?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. 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.
