10 Signs You're An HLGU Trojan
Alisha Ramsey

So, like I have said in previous articles, I am about to go into my junior year at Hannibal LaGrange University. And to be completely honest, I am really excited, but also pretty terrified. The real world is just around the corner. However, the point is that I feel like I know the students, faculty and school itself pretty well. So I am going to give past and present students something to relate to.

Here we go — 10 Signs You're An HLGU Trojan:

Sign #1:

You are an HLGU Trojan if you have seen the bell flipped upside-down more than you have seen it right-side up.

Sign #2:

You are an HLGU Trojan if you know everyone on campus. Or at least know of everyone on campus. It's pretty small.

Sign #3:

You are an HLGU Trojan if you see the Theatre people and the Wrestlers eating dinner together.

Sign #4:

You are an HLGU Trojan if you have noticed that Dr. Bergen could probably out run you. After you have noticed this you start thinking about how you should probably take advantage of that free membership at the YMCA.

Sign #5:

You are an HLGU Trojan if you either hate or love the concept of "Ring By Spring". There really is no in between.

Sign #6:

You are an HLGU Trojan if your teachers know you by your first name instead of just another number.

Sign #7:

You are an HLGU Trojan if you sometimes feel like life at HLG would be a great reality show with all of the quirky and fun stuff that happens on campus. Plus, the people on campus are pretty entertaining. Who wouldn't want to watch it? You have comedy, drama, romance. I mean, I would watch it.

Sign #8:

You are an HLGU Trojan if you have lost track of how many times you have skipped chapel.

Sign #9:

You're an HLGU Trojan if the singing competition at your school has more choreography than singing.

Sign #10:

You're an HLGU Trojan if you pay money to go out with a guy. AKA The Date Auction.

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.
