Adi Chaham week 7: Grocery Stores


Today, as I was contemplating what I should write about for this week’s blog post, I remembered reading Dina’s blog post about her sort-of water review. I then remembered the comment I had written from the blog post about how much I love reviews whether it’d be water, food or even store reviews. And that was it! I had an idea. I was gonna do a Store/Grocery Store Review!

I’m not gonna go through all the grocery stores, of course. I’m just gonna focus on the big three: Target, Walmart and Publix and add in a bit about Trader Joe’s and Fresh Market. 

Most of you guys may already know this but I love Target and of course, Target is number one on my list. I simply love everything about it. From the second you walk in, you feel great as you are welcomed into the 1,3,and 5 dollar section. From the makeup and clothes isles, to the food isles, to the self-checkout, I think Target is the best store if you're bored and want to do something, or if you don't feel like going to the mall and need something. 

Next up on the ranking is Publix. Publix is pretty good. It doesn’t have as many options as Target and is basically just a grocery store with food and things that are needed to make food. Overall, Publix is kinda boring and I would never go there if I was bored. However, it has pretty good grocery stuff and I could always count on it to have sushi, fresh fruits and my favorite Kind bars. 

Finally, we have on the very bottom of my list, Walmart. In every way possible, I dislike Walmart. Yes, It’s the closest grocery store to my house but I'm willing to drive the extra 4 minutes to get to Target. Walmart, in my opinion, is very sketchy and yes, it might have some more food options than Publix or Target, but I'm willing to live without these food options. I have until now, and I will continue to. Not only is Walmart as I mentioned sketchy, but it’s also just not fun to go there. The second I enter the store, I want to leave and the lines are always so long. A few days ago, I went to Walmart because I had to go there to buy some stuff as they didn’t have these things in the first two places I mentioned and neither my card nor was my friend's card working and I had to pay in cash. Now, I knew I had money on my card because I spoke with my mom and she said I had, so the machines were simply just not working. Anyways, Walmart is not it. 

To Trader Joe’s and Fresh Market, you guys are too far to drive too and therefore, I don’t come shopping very often at your store. But overall, you have pretty good stuff. I especially love Trader Joe's items because they are pretty unusual and cool. For example, I love their almonds covered almond butter. 

What’s your favorite grocery store?

    Even though you didn't mention this one, I personally love Walgreens. It's not really for any specific reason, I just do. I feel like its a fun place to stop at any time and they always have good snack and drink options.

    I love Publix. Literally nothing beats Publix for me. Walking into the store and smelling the bakery, seeing the many aisles, and hearing the beeps of the scanners is an unbeatable experience for me.

    Personally, my favorite grocery store has to be Target. It just has everything. Food, clothes, technology, home decor, you name it, Target's got it. Not to mention the fact that Target literally has stores within it. Starbucks and Ulta are both stores that are inside of Target!

Dina Bengelsdorf Week 10 - Things I Love to Do

Image
Things I Love to Do For my last blog (potentially), I thought it would be best to discuss things that make me the happiest. I feel that I have definitely talked about these subjects in one way or another because they are so important to me, but here I want to dedicate a post just to them. During school it is very hard to keep up with your physical and mental wellbeing, and therefore, doing things that keep us grounded are beyond helpful when things can become overwhelming. I have been working to stay active my entire life. I love riding my bike, going to the gym, and taking walks on or by the beach. Staying active is staying healthy and affects my everyday performance.  I feel that every exercise I do is a way for me to release my stress. Every bike ride is a way to absorb nature. Every walk on the beach is a way to clear my mind and to take a deep breath. Doing these things after school or on the weekends has proven to help me in my academic life. I come to school feeling refreshe...

Adi Chaham week 10: Naps

Image
       I dislike naps. I find that most people enjoy taking naps but there are very few that don’t, and I am one of those people.  I can’t explain it, but naps just ruin my entire day and I find sleeping at night to be much more beneficial than falling asleep after school.  Let me try to explain using the most simple scenario. You just had a long day at school so you come home. Instead of doing your homework or doing whatever you usually do after school, you fall asleep. An hour to two passes and it's now 6pm. Now, this is the part that bothers me the most. Maybe it just happens to me but you wake up all confused as to what time it is and bam, the rest of your day gets messed up. Then, I don’t have the energy to do my homework but I'm not tired enough to go to sleep.  That’s it! That’s the beauty of naps that I dislike. It's not much yet it's so much. However, as much as I dislike them, I could argue for the other side. I understand th...

Ben Nikpour- Week 2: The Infamous Common App Essay

Image
     The common app essay is stressful, to say the least. This 650-word essay has a huge impact on our college admissions; an excellent essay can be the one thing that gets you into your dream school, while a bad essay will do the opposite. Knowing this, I spent a lot of time strategically preparing and thinking about what I was going to write about. I started planning out my essay towards the end of last school year and already had a solid start on it before the summer. At first, I had no clue what I was going to write. I had no idea where to start, and I felt that I had nothing interesting to talk about. I constantly freaked out at my parents, saying I couldn’t think of anything, and I wasn’t going to get into a school.           After calming down, I started by listing every major event or aspect of my life. Still, nothing stood out to me as a great topic, so I continued to write more things down and write notes on each topic. This allowed...
