5 Reasons You Should Join Odyssey
The Odyssey Online

Odyssey is a great way to get your voice out there. Actually out there. On the Internet. For everyone to read. Build your writing portfolio for internships and jobs, and work with a great team of creators! Practice with deadlines and experiment with your own writing style. Even if you don't plan on doing anything with writing for your career, it is a great way to express your knowledge in other subjects. Writing is used everywhere no matter who you are or what you do, so it can't hurt to practice.

1. Looks great on a resume

Anything to help you look better than the masses when applying for a job is something worth doing. Not to mention you can get great recommendations from Odyssey Managers at HQ if you strive to be the best you can be as a creator.

2. Being a part of a community

The Odyssey community is awesome for writing and respecting everyone's ideas. It never hurts to have more friends and it is a great way to bounce writing ideas off each other and get feedback on your writing from people who want to help you!

3. Write about anything you want

It is rare to find a platform where you can write anything you want. Odyssey is here to get your voice heard and your ideas shared with your friends and family and everyone on the wide web. Whether it is advice for others or a short story to anything else, Odyssey is here to share it.


4. A club that's not a club

If your schedule is really busy, Odyssey can be done remotely. While it is a club of sorts there is no weekly meeting. You can do it while sitting in your dorm, or while you are eating. While there are meetings, they are there for your benefit and a way to make new friends, and they are much less frequent.


5. There is a huge audience

Although this can be scary at first, there are so many people that read The Odyssey Online articles. There are thousands of communities looking at the articles and millions of viewers of the website. Your impact here is much bigger and better than you realize until you are a creator!

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.
