9 Must Dos When Visiting Baton Rouge

1. LSU Football Games

SEC Football in the middle of the Fall? Seriously, nothing is better than a Saturday Night in Death Valley with 102,000 other people. The best part is that it never rains in Tiger Stadium.


2. The 13th Gates Escape Room

The World's number 6 ranked Best Haunted House takes escaping to another level. You only have 60 minutes, can you escape?

3. Visit the LSU Rural Life Museum

A unique place to take engagement pictures, senior pictures or bridal pictures. The property is so pretty and very easy to explore.

4. Tour the USS Kid Downtown

An old Navy destroyer that is now sitting on the Mississippi River in Downtown Baton Rouge is a ship that everyone should check out!

5. Tour the Louisiana State Capitol

34 Stories high and you can practically see all of Baton Rouge from the top. It is the highest building in Baton Rouge and the 7th highest in the state alone, and the tallest capitol in the United States.

6. Eat at Fleur de Lis Pizza

By far the best hole in the wall pizza ever. Thin square pieces fresh out the oven with cheese on top is the perfect go to.

7. LSU Baseball Games

Doesn't get much better than LSU Baseball in the Spring time packed with 8,000 fans.

8. Old State Capitol

The Old State Capitol is 165 years old and is still standing today. The building now serves as The Museum of Political History.

9. Go to the St. Patricks Day Parade

The weekend either before of after St. Paddy's Day, a parade rolls through Baton Rouge as one of the top parades to attend. It is a party for sure.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
