Aquarium’s aren’t just for kids – they’re the perfect uplifting distraction for college students too! Desperately needing a break from studying, I grabbed a friend and drove 20 minutes to Camden’s Adventure Aquarium.

20 Minute Radius: Philadelphia’s Magic Garden
One of my favorite parts about Rowan is it’s proximity to Philadelphia. If you picture committing yourself to a school in South Jersey is the same as living in an area of desolate land, like I did, then you’re slightly right … but you won’t be trapped in your dorm with nowhere to go. Philly […]

20 Minute Radius: The Deptford Mall
Gossip Girl’s Blair Waldorf said it best: “Whoever said money can’t buy happiness clearly didn’t know where to shop.” I’m admittedly a bit of a shopaholic.
