Pink News

Boston is an incredible city to live in, and there are so many places to eat, see, and explore. Here is a list of 8 of my favorite places to visit in Boston as a college student!

1. Eat at the Boston Burger Company

This one makes the top of the list, because it may just be the best place I have ever eaten at. If dining hall food is ever getting you down, take a short walk to Boston Burger Co., and I promise you will not be disappointed. Try one of their famous burgers and be sure to treat yourself to a milkshake at the end!

2. Visit the Museum of Fine Arts

With most college IDs, access to the Museum of Fine Arts is absolutely free. Here you can enjoy both their temporary and permanent exhibits, and see world famous pieces of art. Prepare yourself to see and interact with the art that they have on display.

3. Walk around or watch a game at Fenway Park

Every big sports fan will be sure not to miss this landmark! Whether you are going to Fenway Park as a spectator, or simply going for a nice walk around it, Fenway is an incredible sight to see.

4. Shop at Primark

For anyone who has ever dreamt of shopping in hands down the greatest store of all time, you can not miss Primark. The Boston location happens to be the first store in all of the United States, and is definitely worth the visit. Standing four floors tall and boasting some of the most affordable and adorable clothes on trend right now, Primark is a must see in Boston.

5. Visit the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum

Another museum that is easily accessible for college students is the beautiful Isabella Stewart Gardner museum. Rich in history and beauty, a trip to the Gardner museum is time well spent. Take a warm afternoon to take in the gardens and enjoy the beautiful art around you.

6. Walk the Freedom Trail

Every history buff and nature lover should definitely walk the length of the Freedom Trail. This tour of all the historical sites in Boston will definitely acquaint you with the city.

7. See a show at the House of Blues

If money permits, every college student should watch a show at the House of Blues. Simply a great, exciting experience, any show at the House of Blues could be worth it. With such a small, intimate theater at our doorsteps, it should absolutely be taken advantage of.

8. Visit Quincy Market

Quincy Market has to be one of my favorite destinations to visit with friends. Here, you can find the world's greatest desserts, Wicked Good Cupcakes. Quincy Market is a great place to eat a quick meal, hangout with friends, and get some shopping done!

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.
