The Missouri State campus may be home to 26 thousand students, however, attending this amazing university, no matter what organization you are apart of or where you come from, we all have these 15 things in common.

1. Owning way too much maroon. Which is totally acceptable of course because everyone looks good in the color.


2. Getting overly hyped for tailgate and football season. Everyone fills with excitement that Thursday before a home game when they are walking to class and they see that all the tents are being set up for that Saturday football game.

3. Following the Football games, we all know the good ole' fight song by heart.

B.....E.....A.....R.....S BEARS!


4. Everyone knows who Cliff Smart is and you're lying if you don't follow our cool president on twitter.


5. Thinking our slogan is the best slogan and getting angry when you realized Mizzou started copying it....

Missouri State: Follow your passion, Find your place!

Mizzou: Follow your dreams, find your future.


6. Loving to hate Mizzou, and SIU, and Wichita too.


7. Wichita is not, and never will be a state.


8. No matter how many pictures you have in front of the bear statue, you can't help, but take another.

9. Being in love with Boomer and practically running to get a picture with him because he truly is the best mascot.


10. Everyone gets sad when they turn off the West Mall fountain in the winter because it makes the campus look more alive. We all patiently await the fountains spring welcome party and you bet you'll see a good number of snapchats of that beautiful landmark.


11. When all your friends are going on, especially on a Thursday night, you feel a lot less bad about yourself calling the library "Club Meyer" if you're stuck there rather than going out.

12. Those crazy Thirsty Thursdays when you get overly excited to talk to Georgia on your way downtown on the bear line.


13. That walk to Garst is always worth it.

14. Telling yourself you refuse to gain the "Mo State 28" and that you're going to work out every day and eat soooo healthy, but you actually end up only going to the rec once a semester and eating Taco Bell three times a week.


15. Already knowing what to wear on Fridays because it's Bear Wear Friday!!


BEAR UP!!!

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.
