Travel Recommendation: A Day Trip In Georgetown

Last week, I had the day off from work, and instead of doing the same old activities, I enjoyed a nice day trip to Georgetown. While the drive was a few hours long, I split up the trip by meeting up with some of my favorite people and spending my time with them. They wanted to show me around Georgetown, especially since it was close to their home, so I gladly agreed to visit. Within a single day, I was easily excited by the millions of options in the city, and I hope to return again soon!

We began by driving around the city, traveling down random side roads until we finally found a parking space. We ended up close to hundreds of adorable shops and restaurants, so we took a trip into some of our favorites. Lululemon, Athleta, Nike, and Urban Outfitters were just some of the many highlights! Each store housed items unique to Georgetown, and some even had limited-edition items that you could not find anywhere else. Searching through these stores comprised the majority of my day, but I was thrilled by the variety of stores.

Once we spent our energy searching through stores, we stopped at an amazing little restaurant called Good Stuff Eatery. Their fries were absolutely delicious, and the hand spun milkshakes and floats just topped it off. I would highly recommend this place, especially because of the surrounding environment. Upon finishing our food, we stopped at Georgetown Cupcake to get our hands on some of the most popular (and delicious) cupcakes in the area. We devoured each one!

To complete the day, we went on a walking tour of the city. We followed the waterfront and explored little side streets throughout the area. We stopped at some swinging benches to enjoy the view of the river alongside the busy city. Overall, I was impressed by the sheer beauty of the area, and I cannot wait to return again soon.

I hope you enjoy a nice day trip in Georgetown — just like I did. Safe travels!!!

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.
