17 Thoughts You Have Watching Game of Thrones For The First Time

This summer, despite my busy schedule composed of sleeping, tweeting, and going to class, I decided to begin watching "Game of Thrones." I didn’t know much about the show other than what a few characters looked like and that I saw my sorority sisters and friends live-tweet the show in capslock every Sunday, and I wanted to know what it was all about. I didn’t know what I was getting myself into…

1. You begin the show super excited for everything that’s to come.

2. Everyone tells you not to get attached to any characters but you think it’s a joke.


3. You realize very quickly that this show isn’t rainbows and sunshine.

4. People are being beheaded and thrown out windows before you know it.

5. You start getting attached to people thinking that they won’t really die--they’re too important.

6. Then they do die…

7. And you have no clue how to handle it.

8. The friends who warned you are just sitting back.

9. And you just look at them like:

10. Despite the heartbreak you decide to keep watching.

11. You begin to think you’re immune to the deaths.

12. That is, until the Red Wedding.

13. And you begin to wonder how you can love a show that hurts you so much.

14. But then the Purple Wedding happens and you’re like:

15. And you begin to think maybe this show won’t tear your heart to pieces.

16. Just kidding.

17. After all: All men must die…


RIP Kahl Drogo, Ygritte, most of the dire wolves, and every other character that I loved that left me too soon.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

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.

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.
