Here’s to my fellow left brained individuals. Here’s to the people who don’t get taken as seriously even though you work hard. Here’s to my peers who are misunderstood by the random aunt twice removed and the Biology Pre-Med major in your class. I have nothing but respect for Biology majors and I am not asking for special treatment—I am simply requesting mutual respect.

The road to success has many different paths, my dear friends. As an Apparel Merchandising Major, I constantly have to defend my degree to people who buy and wear clothes every day. It is as if the fashion business is imaginary, along with the countless jobs in this field, and their clothes appears in their closets with no outside influence. I will stop myself before this becomes a research paper over Apparel Merchandising because the reality of the matter is that there are countless people who are brushed off as soon as their major is introduced.

Just like there are slackers in the world, there are also hard workers. With any major or amount of schooling, you become something great by the amount of time you dedicate to your future. So, whatever major you are in, keep doing what you believe in and work the hardest you can because, once you've graduated and started your career, there is nothing anyone can say when you are happy and successful. To those out there with "easy majors," here are some things you've surely heard before:

1. Aww, that sounds like so much fun!

2. I wish that was my homework! Mine is so hard!

3. Must be nice to not be stressed out all the time.

4. I would love to do that, but my parents would never let me.

5. What are you doing in the library?

6. So, do you have a waitress job lined up?

7. So, like what are you doing after you graduate?

8. Have you started looking for the ring by Spring?

9. Oh! I didn't realize you needed a degree for that.

10. So, do you ever have tests?

11. So, do you actually want to do that or just marry rich?

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

WP content

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.
