26 Signs You Go To Oklahoma State University

Whether you're currently a student or alumni, Oklahoma State University holds a special place in our hearts, along with some experiences we all go through. There's always something going on that's shaking up Stillwater.

1. You've always wanted to be a Paddle Person.

Two hundred and fifty paddles. 12 Football Games. One hyped football season.

2. You have an endless supply of Eskimo Joe's cups.

And Eskimo Joe's T-shirts.

3. You've experience cardiac arrest multiple times during the second half of a game.

We put the "second-half" into the "second-half team"

4. Thanksgiving means Bedlam.

Plus, who can make the best comebacks during dinner.

5. And you're thankful you're not a Sooner.

6. You've experienced the long lines of the Student Union.

7. And learned Tapingo is your best friend.

Now since they expanded their delivery options, there's no reason to put on pants for food.

8. You're obsessed with the campus year-round.

The perfect balance between seasons.

9. You love Homecoming.

Walk-around, Homecoming and Hoops, Homecoming parade, and the busiest weekend of the year.

10. You've slaved over pomping hours to get the decks perfected.

Twelve hours of straight pomping in one day? No big deal...

11. Freshman Follies, Varsity Revue, and Spring Sing are a big deal, whether you're in a house or not.

Freshman Follies is well worth the cheesing and long practices.

12. You say "Go Pokes" whether you're in a good or bad situation.

"Got an A on a test? Go pokes!" "Currently losing a football game? Go pokes!"

13. You know about the tuition myth and always wanted to test it out.

P.S. it's false so please do not be like Regina George and get hit by one.

14. You've had the struggle of finding a parking space.

No matter how hard you try, finding a parking spot is nearly impossible.

15. You use any excuse to throw up your guns.

16. You've gotten free pancakes during finals week with Matt Fletcher.

You're the real MVP, Matt.

17. You've gone to any of the three Aspen Coffee locations for a study date

18. You know J.W. Walsh, Rudolph, Gundy, and Pistol Pete are our homeboys.

Ain't nobody messing with my clique.

19. You've gone through the barn at least once.

Whether you're 21 or under, there's a drink for everyone.

20. Dirty Curty's are the midnight munchies.

Whether its Qdoba, Whataburger, or Dirty Curty's, the midnight munchies are always spot on.

21. You would do anything for free food or T-shirts.

It doesn't matter if you're related to the organization or not, you will take ANYTHING.

22. Rawhide and Calf Fry are the go-to concerts at Tumbleweed.

T-Pain knows how to throw a party. Just saying.

23. You blast the OSU Alma Mater when you travel through Norman.

24. You will always Remember the 10.

Through thick and thin, the Cowboy family is always the definition of a family with unconditional love.

25. If it has black, white, and orange on it, you will buy it.

26. If you tell them the Cowboys are coming, just know hell is coming with us.

There's only one state, and that's Oklahoma State University.

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.
