Pepsi is better than Coke 

While most of the world agrees that Coca-Cola reigns supreme, I believe that Pepsi is better. You know how some people hear a restaurant say they only have Pepsi and they change their mind about their drink? I am the opposite. If I see you only have Coke, I’m sticking with water. It isn’t worth it at that point. Coke is too strong and too carbonated. Pepsi is the perfect amount of sweetness. There is nothing more satisfying to me than a nice can of Pepsi.

I don’t like Halloween 

I know most people sit at their calendars waiting for October 1st to arrive, marking the beginning of “spooky season,” but me? I absolutely despise it. Halloween and the season that surrounds it is completely and utterly miserable. I don’t like scary things, I don’t like pumpkins, I don’t like walking around for hours on end hoping I get a candy bar bigger than my pinky. I just don’t like it. Sorry Halloween lovers! 

Spotify is better than Apple Music

Spotify always hits the right notes when it comes to streaming! (Lindsey Dettloff)

While I can admit I am not super experienced with Apple Music, I believe Spotify is a better platform for streaming music. Apple Music is too intertwined with everything Apple. Spotify is accessible on every device: laptops, computers, androids – you name it. Spotify is fully inclusive and super user-friendly. I have never had a problem finding a song, album, or artist on Spotify. They also include podcasts on their streaming platform, and while Apple has a podcast app, I appreciate the convenience of moving from music to podcasts that Spotify provides. I cannot say the same for the few times I have used Apple Music.
