12 Things To Attend At Fairfield University

Attending these things is like going through a right of passage.

12 Things To Attend At Fairfield University

All of these things are pretty hard to explain, so you'll just have to take my word for it and experience them yourselves.

1. Class
This one seems pretty obvious, but you'll surprised with the amount of times you'll skip class. My advice is to not do it unless it's necessary. If you're sick or hungover to the point where you're throwing up, than that's a way different story.

2. Class Reviews
Another pretty obvious thing to go to, but sometimes the walk all the way to your class seem really far. I mean who wants to leave their room, friends or bed? Just do it and get it over with.

3. Day Drinks
Point days are the best days for the following reasons: sunshine, beach, alcohol, friends and the memories you'll create (and will most likely forget).

4. Soccer Games
Two reasons: the boys and it's the best sport in the entire world.

5. Fall Concert
It may seem dumb, but it is a freshman right of passage. You get to listen to music and enjoy the evening no matter what state of mind you have. It's a way to meet new people.

6. Presidential Ball
You get to dress up all snazzy and party. It's always fun to go out looking amazing and prez ball is a pretty good excuse to do so.

7. Oktoberfest
Whether it's raining or a beautiful day, Oktoberfest is one of the best events during the year. It's a way to say goodbye to the warm weather and forget about work for the day.

8. Rugby Games
It's a lot of fun to go and support your friends, especially when the team is amazing. It's a chill way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Also, those boys are some of the funniest people you will ever meet.

9. Midnight Madness
This is something you have to experience. That is all I can say.

10. Sham Jam
Point days haven't been held in months because of the winter. This is the perfect time to go to the point during the day and try to welcome the "warm" weather.

11. Around the World
It's basically like going to the beach, but up in the townhouses. It's another one of the best days during the year.

12. Clam Jam
The experience is different each year. If you get to go, then you are incredibly lucky. It's the way we let loose before finals.

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.

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.
