This Saturday April 8th, Texas A&M Kappa Alpha Theta will be hosting the 32nd Annual Rock The CASA Theta 5K! The event starts at 9 am and is a 3.1 mile fun run or 1.5 mile walk. This is the perfect Saturday morning work out to kick off parent's weekend, so grab some friends and come on out!! Not convinced yet? Here's 32 reasons why YOU should come Rock the CASA:

1. What else would you be doing at 9 AM on a Saturday morning?

2. Breakfast will be provided for a post run feast (followed by a post feast nap).

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.

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.
