25 Thoughts You Have When Taking An Uber

Most college students will agree that Uber is a lifesaver when it comes to getting kids safely from point A to point B in a timely fashion. The app comes in handy especially when the school shuttles do not drop students off in front of their favorite nightclubs or off-campus house parties. While some Uber excursions are more eventful than others, here are thoughts that every Uber passenger has experienced before, during and after their ride.

1. Who is coming in my Uber?


2. What type of Uber should we take?

I'm a broke college kid... I cannot afford the luxuries of an UberBLACK! Although, it would be nice to roll up to a house party in a Rolls-Royce or Porsche...

3. Everyone better have the Uber app downloaded and be ready to split the fare.

4. I hate the moochers who give every excuse not to split the fare... I am just as broke as you are!

5. Why are the Ubers so far away... doesn't anyone stay in nowadays?

6. These surge prices are ridiculous.

7. Are all these people going to the same destination as me?

8. What are the odds my driver is foreign?

1 in 2...

9. Will our driver notice if we squeeze an extra person or two in our Uber?

10. Other students better not steal our Uber... it's like a shark tank out here!

11. I wonder if our driver has an aux cord?

12. If he/she wants that five-star rating, they better hand the aux cord over.

13. I love the Uber drivers who provide juice boxes and snacks for their customers.

14. Some of these drivers frighten me.

15. Is Uber safe?

16. Are we going to get kidnapped?

17. Well, it's too late to turn back now...

18. Uber drivers are either super talkative or silent. There's no in between.

Either way, a car ride alone with an Uber driver is 100 percent awkward.

19. It grinds my gears when people pronounce the app as "yoober" instead of "oober"

20. I swear if anyone throws up in the Uber, they're paying for it... I do not have $200 to waste on the poor decisions of other people

21. How many laws is this Uber driver breaking?

22. Thank God we made it to our destination safely

23. Don't worry, Uber driver, regardless of how strange our conversations were and how many rules of the road were broken, you will basically always get a five-star rating from us college kids because we will forget to fill out the star rating until the next time we are in a rush trying to find an Uber.


24. How do I become an Uber driver?

25. ...Yep, I'll be Ubering home, too!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
