13 Things In 3 Years

13 must do's in the three years you have before Senior Year

13 Things In 3 Years
Great Value Colleges

It's been three years since I packed up my car and made my first trip to Tallahassee. It has been three years since I started my first job, met my first roommate, and went to my first college football game as a student. Three years, and it feels like three minutes.

Okay, well maybe not three minutes exactly. Between the emotional breakdowns, classes that were seemingly pointless, championship games, easyMac, friends, nights that turned into mornings, and so much more; its actually hard to believe that I haven't been in this college town longer than the three years. Something even harder to believe: I only have one year left.

With this final year, I have a few things that I would still like to do and see before graduation; things like my final spring break trip, leaving the country with my roommates, and so much more. Some things I have yet to do won’t compare to the things I have done in the last three years.

So from my senior class to you, make sure to at least accomplish a few of these things in the three years you have before your senior year creeps up on you too.

1. Learn to cook something other than ramen/rice/chicke

2. Go on a date – not just coffee, but dinner, maybe a movie too

3. If another snow day happens, stay up all night with friends and wait for the snow

4. Rush a sorority/fraternity

5. Take a summer session

6. Run from pots/ The Strip to the fountain

7. Take a class with Mark Ziegler

8. Visit Doak at night

9. Go to a baseball game at Dick Howser

10. Play on an IM team with your best friends

11. Go to the concert of a band you have never heard of

12. Travel, anywhere

13. Go to (another) National Championship, and win

I wasn’t lucky enough to do number 13 the first time, but this year I won’t be making the same mistake when we go again.

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.

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.
