Top Five Spots in Tallahassee You Still Won’t Visit After the Pandemic Ends
All the Random Museums in Tallahassee You Didn’t Know Existed
You think you know your city pretty well, until you google “Things to do in Tallahassee” and twenty museums within a ten mile radius pop up on TripAdvisor. I mean, how does the city even keep this many museums a secret? What are they hiding? At first you think, “Oh, the Tallahassee Museum! That could be fun.” And while the Tallahassee Automobile Museum and the Knott House Museum seem quirky enough to impress your shut-in friends, their haunting Google images make you want to not leave the comfort of your bedroom until it feels safe again.
That One Backyard Show Your Classmate Keeps Talking About
It’s not that you don’t want to go to that thing your classmate keeps posting about on Instagram, it’s just the thought of saying “Good job!” to your class project partner’s devised poetry slam while they are surrounded by their actual friends and family is an awkward encounter you don’t want to experience. Also, the event is on a Thursday night, and you have homework to postpone and groceries to avoid cooking with.
The FSU Civic Center for Another Basketball Game
Inevitably, that time rolls around when sports fans will start talking gibberish about last night's scoreboard, so you sit there blankly realizing the basketball season has begun again. And the team is good, right? You’re never too sure of the consensus. That guilty feeling starts to creep up on you as you think, “I should really go to these games more often before I graduate.” But the thing is, you just went to a game, like, two spring semesters ago. So, you’ve done your Civic (Center) duty.
That One Vegan Restaurant You Keep Saying You Want to Try
You drive past it every two weeks. Each time you say “Oh! I wanna go there so bad!” And even though you’ve heard the food is really good (even your non-plant based friend thought the burger was OK), you’re never in the mood to try their cashew mac and cheese or their beans and rice burrito.That’s okay though, maybe next week you’ll be feeling it. Besides, what will the Chipotle employees think if you’re a no-show this week?
A House Party in a 4x4 College Apartment
You’re actually ready to go out on a Saturday night for once. You have smudged some final glitter on your eyelids, and you’ve already changed into some more comfortable shoes by the time your friend sends you the address. But wait, that can’t be right, the party is located in one of those overpriced, 4x4 college apartments. You can already see the 100 people jam-packed inside the paper thin walls covered with scuff marks and a sticky floor to match. There’s at least one weird guy on the balcony and like seven girls huddled in the second bathroom, so you can forget about personal space. Suddenly the 80s theme doesn’t seem as exciting as when you first saw the Facebook invite. But there’s always next weekend, right?
