Can’t find your textbook and need to do homework or study for a test? Don’t want to buy the textbook? No big deal! The library has a copy of most textbooks students currently use that you can check out for two hour periods. If nobody else needs to use it, you can extend the checkout. Be warned, though, if you turn it in late, there is a huge fine, and there are some regulations regarding what kind of textbooks they have available.

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.

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.
