As college students, we break for the summer way earlier than anyone else! School's out and we're ready for summer...even though the weather has been less than perfect. To get into the swing of things, and leave behind spring, here are a few things you can check off of your summer bucket list early.

1. Head to a concert with friends.

Whether it's one you've been looking forward to for months or if it's just a local band, it'd make a fun night out! Pull out those cute summer clothes and get a group together for a memorable start to the summer.

2. Take a trip to all that there is at Jordan's Furniture.

Bean Town, Fuddruckers, IMAX movies, what's not to love about going to Jordan's?! You can hit all of these fun activities in just one building so why not go and even pick out your future dining room table in the process!

3. Go to that hot yoga class you've been saying you'll go to someday.

It kicks your butt, but that's the point! Make sure you hydrate throughout the day and bring a towel to this toasty class, it's worth going and being able to say you did!

4. Face your fears and go indoor rock climbing.

For those of you who are afraid of heights, fear not, indoor rock climbing is totally safe, and fun! There's nothing better than making it to the top and conquering a fear while you're at it.

5. Visit an aquarium or a museum you haven't been to in a while.

There are tons of wonderful museums you can visit in the Boston area and it's the perfect trip for a rainy spring day! If it's too chilly to hit the beach, go and visit the New England Aquarium, it's the perfect way to see what's under the water without facing the cold.

6. Take a scenic drive to Hampton Beach.

Hampton Beach is always an excellent spot in the summer, but it's an awesome trip for a spring day as well! Take a scenic drive along the coast, or grab a jacket and take a walk down the beach, maybe you can even snap an Instagram pic at the wall!

7. Enjoy a date in Portsmouth, NH

Along the Hampton Beach, New Hampshire is home to many scenic spots, including Portsmouth. Always my favorite for a day spent eating ice cream and lunching on a deck, Portsmouth is the perfect date spot. Enjoy the beautiful view and the lovely shops around town while spending quality time with that special someone!

8. Spend an evening at Salem Willows Arcade.

Close to home and wicked fun! Salem Willows isn't just a summer hangout spot, there can be tons of fun found anytime, and a gorgeous sunset! Hit the arcade for a blast to the past and win some awesome prizes.

9. Play a few games at The Castle.

The Castle is Beverly's own Board Game Cafe! Great for any day or night, this unique cafe will let you play games all day long, while enjoying great food and drink! Whether you're in it for Apples to Apples or for something more complex, it's a great spot to hang and reconnect with friends or family.

10. Go for a day in Boston

With Boston only a short commute away, it's absolutely to take advantage of all this beautiful city offers. Make a day of it and get to know your city a little better!

Summer may feel like a few weeks away, but it's closer than you think! Better get started on checking off items on your summer bucket list!

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
