10 Things Every TCU Freshman Has To Do Before The End Of The Year

Freshman year is the year that you learn to live on your own, make a bunch of memories and make best friends. Freshman year is the time you can continuously make mistakes and it's still socially acceptable because you are learning. I hate to break it to you, but after freshman year you rapidly progress toward adulthood. You have to worry about jobs, internships and interviews. You also start going out less and begin to find joy in sitting on the couch on Friday nights. Make the most of your freshman year by doing all of these things before the year is over.

1. Jump in Frog Fountain

Yes, your RA might look at you weird when you run back to your dorms soaking wet, but it's worth it.

2. Steal a fraternity or sorority shirt

You can be awarded a shirt or you can just steal one out of your best guy friends drawer, either way works.

3. Go to Gulf Shores for Spring Break

What happens in Gulf Shores doesn't stay in Gulf Shores. You will remember the ridiculous things that happen for the rest of your lives. Warning: will be sick for weeks after.

4. Go Wednesday night bowling

Live a little. Go out on a Wednesday.

5. Play in the snow on snow days

Sorry freshmen, this one might not be possible this winter.

6. Volunteer at Kinderfrogs

The kids will instantly brighten your day, guaranteed.

7. Go to a baseball game

Yes, football is over, but baseball is almost as fun. Also, the boys aren't hard to look at.

8. Watch a movie in the Sherley movie theater

Nothing says lazy Sundays more than camping out in the movie theater all day.

9. Eat at Joe T's

Joe T's is hands down the best Mexican food in Fort Worth.

10. Go to the empty football stadium

Amon G. Carter is just as magical empty as it is with thousands of booming fans

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.
