Over the course of winter break, I have found myself missing college more and more every day. It is nice to be home for a little while, but the adjustment from living at school to being back at home is definitely difficult to make. Personally, I miss Temple University and I have found myself reminiscing about all of my favorite memories from my first semester. Here are some things that myself, and I am sure other temple students alike miss while on break.

1. The People

Temple University has one of the most diverse student populations in the country. There are people from just over 100 countries that are in our current student body. I have met my best friends here and I wouldn't trade the relationships I have with these people for the world. I miss being in a judgment-free environment with people in my age group.

2. The Aesthetic

Temple University is also very aesthetically pleasing. Not only the buildings but generally speaking, Temple has a unique aesthetic in which could not be found anywhere else. I cannot wait to be able to pass buildings like both Morgan Halls and Mitten Hall again once back on campus!

3. The Food

Besides having a diverse student body, Temple University has an array of food options. Between the different variety of dishes offered on the meal plan, there is no way anybody could starve. Temple University also has food trucks which offer even more food options. Sure, home cooked meals are great but I really miss the food at Temple.

4. The Campus

Personally, one of my favorite things about Temple University is its campus. I love the traditional college campus feel in the middle of a big city such as Philadelphia. I cannot wait to be back on campus again.

5. Constantly Having Things To Do



Because Temple is a big school located in a big city, there is an array of things to be doing all of the time. Unlike at home, I was never bored during my first semester.

I cannot wait to be back on campus where I will be occupied with Temple's campus, the city of Philidelphia and even my school work.

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.
