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!

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
