3 Hotspots To Take a non-Delawarean Visiting Delaware

In This Article:

I have lived in Delaware for the past 11 years. I went to two Delaware elementary schools, a Delaware middle school, and even a Delaware high school. To continue my journey, I'll be going to a Delaware college.

Yes, I am an incoming freshman at the University of Delaware.

Before the next school year starts, I would like to give out a few hotspots that we have here in Delaware since literally half of the students that attend UD are coming from New York, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Connecticut and even California.

So the first hotspot is...


1. Main Event

Main Event is fairly new to Delaware as it opened up in early March. Here is where you can find a two story laser tag arena, a zip line course, a full arcade, 4 star meals , a twenty two lane bowling alley, and of course ME ( I work there on the weekends)! If you ever plan a trip there, I highly recommend you do two laser tag sessions and settle down to eat garlic pepper wings with fries.

2. Christiana Mall

The Christiana Mall used to be the place where every teenager went to every weekend to hang out. I wasn’t one of them but I still occasionally went with my grandparents. Here is where you will find my personal favorites. I like to shop at Nordstrom, Alex & Ani, Forever 21 , PINK and M•A•C.

3. Main Street

Wikipedia

Main Street is the closest thing to campus that doesn’t require a bus or car. All you need is two legs (or four) and a whole lot of money. You can eat on Main Street, grab any UD gear from National 5 and 10, and get your books for the UD book store. I highly recommend Playa Bowls for a healthy snack. The Pitaya bowl is LIT! Add ons are fifty cent too , so that makes Playa Bowls even more lit.

Besides those three major things there are few other things you could do. You could head over to Christiana Skating Rink and skate along the wall for a while. In the summer, you could go down to one of our many beaches. There's also a Cinemark at the mall and it's pricey but the recliners are so worth it.

Well that's all I have for today folks.

Welcome to Delaware!

A Few Thoughts Every College Freshman Has

The transition into adulthood is never easy

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
