16 Places I'd Rather Be Than The Cold, Snowy, Gross Midwest

February is the most brutal month in the Midwest because it is fully winter and cold and snowy. By this time of the year, I am sick of it. Spring is on the horizon, but there's still a long way to go.

Here are 11 places I'd rather be than in the Midwest.

1. Hawaii

I would rather be sitting on Hawaii's many beaches right now.

2. Bahamas

A cruise to the Bahamas would be ideal.

3. California

That California sunshine would feel amazing on my face.

4. Cancun

Wouldn't mind escaping to a different country.

5. Florida

Anywhere in Florida sounds perfect right now.

6. Texas

Not tropical, but still warm.

7. Louisana

I've always wanted to go to New Orleans.

8. Arizona

I would do anything to see a cactus right now. Cacti = warm

9. Brazil

That view though.

10. New Zealand

Never been, but supposedly it is warm during this time of the year. But even if it is cold, at least I am not in the Midwest.

11. Dominican Republic

Palm trees for miles.

12. Jamaica

Let me just sit down in those chairs and watch the waves roll in.

13. Argentina

This looks very unique.

14. Costa Rica

Looks like a tropical paradise.

15. Tennessee

I just really like Tennessee.

16. South Carolina

It just looks like a whole lot of fun.

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.

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.

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. 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!)
