11 Best Things About Spring Weather

Right around this time every year, the weather all of a sudden drastically jumps. Instead of puffy winter jackets, four layers of clothes and hats and scarves, we're suddenly wearing shorts, flip flops, T-shirts sunglasses and need sunscreen to walk to and from class every day. And although some days it jumps back down to colder weather with some rain, the thought that the amount of nice days will be much higher than not so nice ones, makes everyone's day a little better.

With spring just around the corner, the thoughts of warm weather bring spring fever and the thought that summer is only half a semester away, leads to an overall happier and better mood around campus. So here are 11 reasons why spring and warm weather is the absolute best.

1. It makes everyone so much happier.

Scientifically proven or not, I can say with 100% certainty that the start of good weather makes everyone feel a little bit brighter no matter what's going on in other parts of their life.

2. Better clothes.

Picking out a pair of shorts and a tank top is so much easier and so much more fun than trying to find four layers and a pair of pants and socks that all look good together. Also if you're feeling super lazy -- workout clothes and dresses are much more weather appropriate this time of year too.

3. Instead of crying about your 10-page paper inside, you can do it outside.

A little fresh air never hurt your brain or your thinking, and you could find some new inspiration instead of your wall.

4. The pool and the beach may not be open just yet, but that doesn't mean there aren't other fun outside activities.

Pick up games of corn-hole, Frisbee, soccer and more are super common around this time of year, and super fun too.

5. You'll be tanner, and I can't really find any complaints with that.

6. Darty season.

7. Spring break.

8. Warm weather gives way to tons of flowers and blooms that all around make campus look way prettier (and make for some fun Instagrams).

9. Warm weather season also brings the start of music festival season.

From now until fall, festivals such as Ultra, Coachella, Gov. Ball and EDC, EZOO, Firefly and Lollapalooza, will take over your Twitters, Instagrams and Facebooks. Not only that, but it's a great way to have some summer fun and here all your favorite artists at once!

10. If you're a huge baseball fan like me, then when the weather starts to get warm is probably your favorite time of the year because it means that baseball season.

But other big sporting events such as March Madness (#Gocats), The Masters and many more also come around during this time of year.

11. The start of warm weather and spring can only mean one thing -- summer is just a few weeks away.

And who doesn't love the thought of that?

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.
