It's Cinnamon Roll Season!
Melissa Echenique

This is not a drill. Guys, Knausberry Farms have opened their doors for the season. I repeat. This is not a drill. Knausberry Farm is now open.

Knausberry Farm is home to the best cinnamon rolls in the entire state of Florida. You can try to fight me on that, but with God as my witness, we all know I’m right. Their cinnamon rolls are so good that when they open up for the season, their average wait time in line is anywhere from 55 minutes to 2 hours. That’s about as long as the wait time for the Rip, Ride, Rock It! On opening weekend, however, expect the lines to be anywhere from 4-7 hours long.

Aside from being home to the best cinnamon rolls in the state, Knausberry farm is also home to the tastiest milkshakes and ice cream. The lines for these aren’t as big and are luckily in a separate area. Therefore, you can buy yourself a cold delicious milkshake to drink while you stand in line under the blazing Florida sun.

Knausberry Farm is located between the Redlands in Homestead. The best way to get there for anyone familiar with the area is to just drive straight down Krome Avenue for a solid 250 blocks and then make a left. It’s pretty far from civilization, but I assure you that it is worth it.

Knausberry Farm is run by a religious group known as the Tunkers, formally known as the German Baptists. It happens quite often that this group is confused with the Amish due to the fact that they dress in classic pilgrim attire. The difference is that German Baptists accept the use of technology unlike the Amish. The Knausberry Farm we know today was started by two brothers Ray and Russell Knauss. It all began as a strawberry farm. It then expanded as Ray’s wife, Barbara, began to bake cookies and sell them. Over the years, they added vegetables, assorted baked goods and ice cream to their menu. Now, the strawberry farm has been converted into a U-Pick strawberry and tomato farm - infamous for their delicious cinnamon rolls. To this day, Knausberry Farm still belongs in the hands of the Knauss family seeing as Ray’s daughters and their husbands oversee the farm.

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

College involves a whirlwind of emotions, whether it’s from the stress of an assignment (or twenty), or from fighting with your roommate. It can be overwhelming at times and it’s important to take a step a back and calmly think things over. Maybe gain some perspective.
