Top Things To Do and See In Hoboken, NJ!

When thinking of New Jersey, a one places that might be mentioned is Hoboken. Though it's may seem like a regular city right by the water, it's filled with many thing to do from nightlife and restaurants to different places to just hangout! Check out this list of my personal favorites!

1. HUDSON RIVER WATERFRONT WALKWAY

One thing in Hoboken that you're for sure NEVER going to miss is the amazing view of the New York City Skyline! At the Waterfront, you're able to chill by the water, enjoy the views, and ever sit in the grass around the different parks like Pier A Park, Pier C Park, and Frank Sinatra Park. I believe that this is something you could do at any point of the day, but if you're looking for some insta-worthy pictures, I feel that night would be better with the city all light up! What's also cool about this walkway is that it goes through 9 different cities, including Bayonne, Jersey City, Hoboken, Weehawken, West New York, Guttenberg, North Bergen, Edgewater, AND Fort Lee!

2. WASHINGTON ST.

Washington St.

If you're bored and looking for random places to go, Washington St. is your place to be! Stretching about 15 blocks, this street is full of different restaurants and shops that you could probably take you the whole summer to complete. Some of my places to visit foodwise on Washington St and a bit off are honeygrow, Anthony David's, Baja Mexican Cuisine, and Playa Bowls! Washington is also filled with a ton of nightlife opportunities, which makes it fun during some points of the year including SantaCon. Check out this link for some nightlife spots in Hoboken overall!

3. SHOPPING

Vintage on 1st

Shopping is the best thing when you're just looking for something to do to past time. Hoboken holds a number of different stores, such as Anthropologie, Cheap Maggies, Vintage on 1st, and so many more! These different stores are also so different, making sure everyone visiting finds their own unique place to check out!

4. HOBOKEN HISTORICAL MUSEUM

Though this list is one that mentions many things and places, Hoboken is FULL of exciting and interesting places to visit and thing to do! Take a trip to this lovely city and be sure to capture all it has to offer!

11 Moments Every College Freshman Has Experienced

Because we made it, and because high school seniors deserve to know what they're getting themselves into

too tired to care

We've all been there. From move-in day to the first finals week in college, your first term is an adventure from start to finish. In honor of college decisions coming out recently, I want to recap some of the most common experiences college freshmen experience.

1. The awkward hellos on move-in day.

You're moving your stuff onto your floor, and you will encounter people you don't know yet in the hallway. They live on your floor, so you'll awkwardly smile and maybe introduce yourself. As you walk away, you will wonder if they will ever speak to you again, but don't worry, there's a good chance that you will make some great friends on your floor!

The college years are a time for personal growth and success. Everyone comes in with expectations about how their life is supposed to turn out and envision the future. We all freak out when things don't go exactly as planned or when our expectations are unmet. As time goes on, we realize that the uncertainty of college is what makes it great. Here are some helpful reminders about life in college.

1. "If I'm wearing black tomorrow, it's because I'm mourning my grade."

2. "Do you want to try ordering Chinese takeout to take back to the stacks?"

3. "This final paper has me questioning if this professor just sucks or is Satan himself."

4. "Is that person over there OK? They've been sleeping for a while."

5. "Why are you online shopping?"

"I want to motivate myself to study."

"Since when do you have money to buy something anyway?"

6. "I wonder how much I could make as a stripper."

7. "There are no stress relief dogs, and I feel conned. My stress today is worse than yesterday."

8. "Rate My Professor screwed me over."

9. "I wore these clothes yesterday, and maybe even the day before, but it's fine."

10. "I wonder if I could sneak a beer in here."

11. "I just really want chocolate chip cookies."

Dear High School Friend Group,

My sweet angels, where would I be without you guys. We all grew up together because we either met in middle school or high school and watched each other grow up and get "old." We got to go to prom together and then graduate together. Then watched each other as we continued our lives in college, joining sororities and meeting people who will impact our lives forever. It all has happened so fast.

Oh college, we can’t live with you, but we can’t live without you. It’s a love/hate relationship, really. College is an experience that no one can ever prepare you for, and maybe that’s a good thing. You never really expect any of the things that college encompasses until you are there. College is fun, but don’t have too much fun. C’s get degrees, but they don’t get you into graduate school.
