Seven Reasons Why Going Home For Winter Break Is The Best

Once finals are over, you get to head home for winter break. Here are just some of the reasons why going home is the best! Do they apply to you?

1. First of all, it's the HOLIDAYS!

You finally get to go home and take a break from college! It's the holidays; Christmas music is playing everywhere, your Christmas tree is up in the house and under it are presents for you!

2. Your parents prepare all your favorite food and snacks.

While at college, you don't have money to buy snacks or food. You don't even have time to prepare food! Back at home, your mom or dad can whip up your favorite foods you haven't had in a while. Plus, you can ask them to buy your favorite snacks for you! Mwahaha

3. You get to spend time with your siblings

You haven't seen your siblings in forever and you missed them while you were away at college. It's finally nice to see them and go back to the old days where you fought over shotgun of your parent's car.

4. Squad time! You get to see your friends and catch up on EVERYTHING.

You haven't seen your friends in months, and it's finally time to see them and catch up on everything. From gossip, to college life, to studying, to college shenanigans.

5. WiFi actually works in the house

It's not like at school, where WiFi works half of the time, and the other half, it's just slow. You finally get fast connection and can watch YouTube videos in 1040 HD.

6. BED! Your own bed, the most comfortable thing in the world.

You don't want to go back to your college dorm bed after spending time in your own comfy bed. Your bedroom and bed is the most home like thing ever.

7. Normal showers and maybe even a nice, bubble bath.

You can finally take a shower in the comfort of your own bathroom, and not worry about someone walking in on you as you take a shower. You can even take a bath with a Lush bath bomb!

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.
