15 Signs You're From Clarks Summit
personal

Whether you've lived in the area your entire life or just for a little while, you can probably relate to these signs.

1. The Armetta's sign

You can't pass it without taking a look. Plus, their pizza is great.

2. Summit University

It's probably has been renamed about 300 times by now. It has been changed so often you have lost count. Is it BBC, Clarks Summit University, or Summit University? Who knows.

3. Manning's.

Whether its the farm location or the one at the hub of Clarks Summit, is and will always be your ice cream of choice . You probably know the people that work there and are always happy to see them.

4. Summit Pointe has a lovely view any time of year.

5. Most of your friends from home live within ten minutes of you, and you probably grew up with them.

You'll always be there when they need you, and vice versa. (Thanks a million times over for that!)

6. You either went to Scranton Prep or Abington Heights.

Whichever one you didn't graduate from you probably greatly dislike.

7. There is most likely a back road to wherever you travel, and it is quite scenic.

You probably take the long way home.

8. NEPA is the only place where people say "tray" instead of "pie."

Stick to your roots, it's a tray.

9. People refer to the main strip of Clarks Summit as "the notch" and that's pretty much all you know about it.

10. When someone asks you where you're from, you just say Scranton.

No one really knows where Waverly, Dalton, Newton, or Clarks Summit are if they aren't from the area.

11. You feel an obligation to like Moe's better than anywhere else.

I'm not complaining, though.

12. South Abington Park has seriously stepped up its game in the past few years.

You probably used to play by the water fountains as a kid.

13. You can get anything at Sheetz.

Wawa isn't part of your vocabulary.

14. You like to visit the State Park because it's just plain beautiful.

15. But ultimately whether you stay or you go, it's always home.

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.
