6 Must Stops In Mexico City

Mexico is one of the most popular destinations in the world. Its stunning beaches are the main attraction, which is why everyone loves Cancun or Los Cabos, but the country has many more things to offer than these landscapes. For instance, Mexico City is one of the most underrated spots in the country. The big city is all about culture, cuisine, fashion, and partying.

These are some of the must stops everyone has to make in Mexico City.

Chapultepec Castle

Imagine central park, but with a castle in the middle of it. This palace is located in the Chapultepec Park and it overlooks Mexico City's skyline.

Soumaya Museum

This museum is one of the city's landmarks. The best thing about it: it's free!

Avenida Masaryk

Avenida Masaryk is the equivalent of Fifth Avenue in New York City. You'll find most of the high-end stores, and dozens of places to eat. If you're not into Mexican food, there are many options available, like Brazilian or Asian cuisine.

Palacio de Bellas Artes

This palace is located in the heart of the city and in my opinion it is the core of the Mexican arts. Music, dance or art, you name it; this place has it all. Their schedule varies, but Diego Rivera's murals (one of Mexico's most prominent artists) are exhibited all year.

Coyoacan

Coyoacan is a very authentic and unique neighborhood. Frida Kahlo's house is located here, also known as La Casa Azul, which is very well preserved and exhibits some of her most important artwork.

Arcos Bosques

Mall by day and nightclub by night. Arcos Bosques has become one of the city's preferred spots to party. It has two different nightclubs, two regular bars, and an additional bar with live music.

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?

sisters

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.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions. So, if you are aware that you’re a Starbucks addict as well, or maybe you need to check to see if you’re an addict, here are seven ways to tell.

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. The following aren’t foolproof tips and may not apply to you, but I was able to find success with them (hope you do too!)
