7 Things I Miss About Norwalk CT
Norwalk CT

Even though Massachusetts is only two and a half hours away from my hometown, I still finding myself missing home more than I should. Home is where memories were made and where mom's home cooked meals are made. There are so many things I love and miss about being home, here are a few:

Calf Pasture Beach

It's no Malibu, but here is where late night adventures start, Fourth of July fireworks happen, and where newly Brien McMahon graduates watch the sunrise together for the very last time before starting our new separate journeys.


PRDs

What makes a diner a diner? Is it the sheen of steel and the sizzle of bacon? Or is it a feeling of community and comfort? PRDs is a second home for many. Its where we go after Prom, when the bell rings at 2:15, and when its a hot summers day and all you want is a root beer float.


Brien McMahon vs Norwalk High School


Who doesn't love a good rivalry? *Cough* BMHS is better *Cough*. Once a Senator always a Senator.


Stamford


Being less than 15 minutes away from Stamford is a blessing and a curse. Theres the Stamford mall which is a gift sent from God himself but unfortunately its where all of our paychecks end up being spent as well as the Westport shops.

Bowlmor


Lazor Tag, Bowling, an arcade with Flappy Bird, and a bar with killer food. What else could you possibly need?!


Donut Delight


Better than Dunkins and better than Starbucks (Oh yeah that's right! I said it!). Ever thing from their lemonades to their coffee smoothies. Donut Delight is the perfect pick me up after a stressful day at school which is perfectly placed down the street from my old High School. This is also where I've crashed friends on dates multiple times because I can't get one of my own. #ForeverSingle

"The City"

In Connecticut we refer to NYC as "The City", aka the best city in the world. Being around an hour away from Norwalk, we find ourselves here an awful lot.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Sorority Girls

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
