11 Reasons College Spring Break Is The Greatest Week Ever

Spring break has finally arrived! After struggling to get up for the past two months to go walk through the snow and the freezing cold to classes; it's finally time for us, the college students! Whether you have one week or two weeks this is a well deserved break for all. In my opinion, spring break is actually one of the greatest weeks in a college students' life.

1. You get to leave campus.

Although most of us love our schools, we all need a break every now and then. Being able to leave campus and adventure into the outside world is a wonderful experience. Even more so, when you are going somewhere nice and sunny.

2. No more Caf food.

The major reason that almost all college students love breaks in general, is that you get "real food" also known as home cooked meals. Plus, if you are going somewhere exciting for spring break then there are always amazing restaurants and food wherever you go.

3. You rediscover sleep.

After spending two months learning and then being tested on what you learned over those two months, the week leading up to spring break involves very little sleep. So once your midterms are over you are able to sleep and become "human" again, since you were probably a zombie for much of the week leading up to break.

4. You get to hang out with your favorite people.

Whether it's spending time with some of your closest college friends or are going back to your middle school BFF, you get to party it up with some of your favorite people for a week!

5. No more thinking about lasses.

You are away from campus for a week, so you don't have to think about school work or classes. Even if you have papers, midterms, etc. after spring break. When you look back on life, you will remember that awesome spring break with friends more than that paper you were supposed to write over break.

6. You can be as lazy as you want.

You could never leave your bed all break and take naps all day and that is okay. Break is your time to do whatever you want, whenever you want. Even if that includes doing absolutely nothing at all.

7. If you are up for it, you can actually party 24/7.

Some people have been preparing all year for spring break and this is their time to shine. I wish my best to all those people that will be drunk for a week straight and hopefully they have a great time doing so.

8. The memories are timeless.

You will come away from spring break with your friends having so many stories that start with, "You remember that one time on spring break..." Plus think about all the fun about being somewhere with your friends for a week, that's awesome by itself!

9. You feel like a badass when you do something cool.

If you get a tattoo, go parasailing, or just forget to shower one day, spring break is a great excuse to feel like a badass. I know I always feel like a rebel when I don't put on sunscreen every hour, sometimes I wait an extra 15 minutes. Danger comes in many forms.

10. Your phone will be overloaded with selfies.

It's a fact, you will come away with a large amount of selfies, either being tan with your friends in some warm and tropical location, or you reuniting with some of friends from home. Anyways, you will have the biggest smile ever because you are having an amazing time and it will most likely end up with you have over a 200 second snapchat story.

11. Everything is just so exciting!

You have almost made it through another academic year. So before this year is up take time to celebrate it with all of your friends, family, and other crazy spring breakers this year!

Cheers to the best spring break ever!

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.
