Hamilton is not a huge city, it quiet and near the countryside. I loved it because the quaint atmosphere made studying relaxed, easy to breathe, and gave me the freedom to be who I am in these places.

Here's 5 of my favorite places to be in Hamilton:

Dumpling House

I LOVE THEIR DUMPLINGS AND BUBBLE TEA. They give such huge servings and very quick service. The food is delicious, and my friends and I intend to eat there once I get a chance to go back!

Iguana Restaurant

They have specials from Monday to Friday and each day is different! Tuesday 30% off any dessert is so worth the bus trip into town! Try every dessert and I promise you will not be disappointed.

Nightlife – The Hood

I highly recommend The Hood for a night out at least once. In my opinion, they play more a variety of hip hop, rap, RnB, from throwbacks to now. If you need a night to just dance with your friends. This is for you, especially since the other clubs are within walking distance of each other (less than 5 minutes).

CottonOn

An Australian chain store but they have great sales and comfortable cute clothes for guys and girls! Anytime I needed a piece to bring my outfit together, I went to CottonOn. The clothes have nice quality and relaxed styles for most casual occasions.

Super Liquor

This was where everyone got their discounted drinks to sip with friends in their rooms or where first years blew all their money during orientation week because they're drunk on freedom away from home.

Remember to bring your reusable bags for shopping! If not, be prepared to carry what you buy or spend more money to buy another bag in the stores.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
