A Guide To A Summer Day In Edgartown, MA
Martha's Vineyard Buyer Agents

Edgartown, Massachusetts is a quintessential, seaside, New England town located directly on Martha's Vineyard. After taking the ferry to the island, Edgartown is about a 20 minute ride away. Some people might also enjoy biking from the ferry into town and there are many bike routes along the island.

A morning must-stop to grab a coffee or bagel for me is Espresso Love. There is a large patio to sit outside to enjoy your breakfast, along with many options for lunch if you choose to grab a salad or sandwich to bring down to the beach.

For a great smoothie, stop by Smooth Moves. My favorite smoothie there is 'Chill' Mark, which has kale and spinach, along with mango and pineapple. The cold, refreshing drink is a great way to start your morning or to enjoy after a workout.

Take advantage of the sunny day and spend the late-morning to early-afternoon down at Lighthouse Beach. This small and quiet beach is a perfect place to take in the views of the lighthouse, along with the Harbor View Hotel.

Moving forward, be sure to spend the rest of the afternoon walking around downtown and shopping. Some must-stop by stores include Vineyard Vines, Backwater Trading Company, Vintage Jewelry, Island Company, and Lily Pulitzer.

For dinner, The Seafood Shanty has a great deck with amble outdoor seating. A delicious place to go for fried or grilled fish. Another suggestion for a bit fancier of a dinner is Atlantic, which is also sits right on the water. A favorite dish of mine from there are the Slow Baked Jumbo Lump Crab Cakes... Yum!

To conclude your adventure filled day in Edgartown, Massachusetts be sure to stop by Murdock's Fudge, along with Mad Martha's Ice Cream as they are the perfect places to stop at for dessert after dinner for the ultimate homemade treat!

10 Truths About Being In A Sorority

Sorority

I remember my freshman year oh so well. I remember feeling terrified the night before orientation. The one thing that I dreaded the most was not the new people, the new environment, or even the academic pressure. I was dreading having to talk to sorority girls about Recruitment. I remember cutting off and avoiding any Rho Gamma/Panhellenic Officer that came my way during First Week. I looked at them like they had asked me to cut my arm off whenever they asked me if I wanted to rush. To be honest, I did not even know what rush was, but I knew that I did NOT want to be a part of it. To me, it was dumb. It was a waste of money. It was a waste of my time.

And guess what? I did not rush my freshman year. I spent the first half of my freshman year isolating myself from everyone on campus. I spent all of my time in the library, and then (since I was a commuter) went back home once my work was finished.
