There is nothing worse than wanting to go on adventures and dates but never being able to make up your mind. Thank goodness the internet is so amazing, and you can find the most romantic date ideas anywhere or in a specific area by the drop of a hat! I hope you try some of these experiences out, and they make for incredible memories.

1. Cooking Together

First I will start with the dates you can do anywhere, not just in the NYC area. Staying in to cook together is one of the best bonding experiences. Not only will it be between just the two of you but you will remember the taste of your food you made together for the longest time!!

2. Pretty Bridge

Any historical and vintage bridge you can walk over will be romantic, especially if it has a great view. My favorite is the Brooklyn bridge!

3. A Quiet Italian Restaurant

A romantic dinner at a quiet, warm and cozy restaurant is the ideal date. My favorite place to go to in the city is Da Marino. It is the perfect romantic dinner for two.

4. Movie Night

The old-fashioned movie nights will always be a win in my eyes. My favorite movie theaters are vintage looking ones that make me feel like I have gone back in time.

5. Breakfast

The most cliche time to go on a date is in the evening, but I love me an excellent breakfast. A great place to have a cute breakfast is the Blue Bell Cafe in Manhattan!

6. Botanical Gardens

Any romantic walk is special, but the most beautiful kind of walk is one with a view. The botanical gardens found in many areas in the city and in other states is a fantastic place to go to smell the flowers, see all the beautiful exhibits and relax together as a couple.

7. Boat Ride in Central Park

In my mind, the most romantic experience is in a quiet setting where it is just the two of you, and you are both relaxed. A gondola ride in central park covers all the bases. You can bring a picnic on the boat, talk to each other for hours with no distractions (as long as you know how to row).

8. Picnic

There are so many open spaces we don't know about in New York City BUT one very well known place to have a romantic picnic is in Central Park. Not only is it very accessible but if you want, you never have to picnic at the same spot twice since the park is so spacious.

9. Beach Day

If it is summer time and you are sick of staying in the city, I nice getaway is the New York beaches. Just miles away from Manhattan is Jones beach. A beach day is a beautiful way to get away for a day. It is affordable and fun!

10. Rockefeller Center

In the winter time, a go-to adventure date would hands down be Rockefeller center. Whether you are a local or a visitor to the city, taking a picture in front of the tree and experiencing the holiday atmosphere is priceless.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
