10 Real Reactions To The First Snow
loe.org

The weather outside is frightful all right, thanks to this winter's first snow. Which one of these 10 reactions to the first snow were you guilty of doing?

1. Denial.

This isn't happening. I refuse to believe there is snow falling out of the sky. There is no way it can be this soon. It is still fall, I promise I still see some colorful leaves left on the tree. It's not even close to Christmas, therefor anyone who tells me it is snowing is a liar.

2. Annoyance.

I don't understand how everyone can forget how to drive right when it snows. Are you kidding me. What makes you think that going 70 mph and then slamming on your gas pedal, with a crap ton of snow under you, is a good idea?

3. Nervousness.

My car is not in a garage, and I don't remember the last time I checked my breaks. Even if my car starts tomorrow I might just run right off the road into a snow bank instead of making it to school.

4. Excitement.

Finally, it's snowing! I get to build snowmen, go skiing, and make snow angels again.

5. Wanting to hibernate.

It is officially cold enough to crack out my parka and fuzzy mittens. But, all I want to do is stay in my bed, watching Netflix, and drinking hot coco.

6. Indifferent.

I'm more concerned about food than snow.

7. Devastation.

Why did this have to happen so soon? I didn't even get to do cute fall things this year. What a horrible grey pit I have to live in for the next six months.

8. Nostalgic for summer.

I miss sunlight. I miss being out on the lake, and watching the water shimmer. I miss wearing shorts, and I hate lugging around all of this heavy gear.

9. Regret.

Why did I not grab my winter jacket and snow boots from home when I had the change. What was I thinking?

10. Realizing it is socially acceptable to play Christmas music.

You start screaming out your car window, "DECK THE HALLS WITH BOUGHS OF HOLLY, Fa la la la la la la la la."

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
