18 Things To Be Thankful For This Year

Thanksgiving is this week! Obviously, Thanksgiving is a time to be thankful so I decided to list off the very crucial and important things that we should all appreciate! Enjoy!

1. Thankful that I can honestly say it's been at least three months since I've heard “Thriftshop” by Macklemore on the radio. It was released in 2012 so this is a big deal.

2. I'm thankful for cars with heated seats because it's getting COLD in Texas.

4. Thankful for the Snapchat filters because now my procrastination level is through the roof.

5. Thankful that the man bun fad is on the decline because it's NOT for everyone.

7. I'm thankful for the classes that don’t take role.

12. Thankful for when I see people on campus riding around on one of those hands-free two wheel scooter things because I could use a laugh.

15. Thankful for dry shampoo. Coming in clutch every day.

16. Thankful that I haven’t seen a pair of Uggs worn this fall (yet).

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.
