As an Auburn student, "War Eagle!" can be used in so many different situations, so here are a few of them:

1. When you find an open table in RBD during finals week.

A blessing from above, honestly.

2. When you're 2018 SEC Men's Basketball Champions.

We're a basketball school, right?

3. When you lose to Alabama in the SEC Tournament.

War Eagle, anyways.

4. When you beat Alabama and UGA during the regular season, only for both of the teams to play each other in the National Championship.

The most Auburn thing to ever happen to Auburn.

5. When the Chick-fil-A line is not out the door.

You know it's a good day when you don't have to wait 45 minutes for a chicken sandwich.

6. When Casey Mize pitches a no-hitter.

We're a baseball school now.

7. When you see Aubie anywhere on campus.

I feel a personal soul connection.

8. When Spirit flies over the stadium.

Tears. Actual tears.

9. When no one is on the concourse handing out fliers, asking you if you have voted, etc.

SGA Campaign, Homecoming Week, and Welcome Week are all times that it's just easier to avoid the concourse.

10. When you don't get a parking ticket.

A gift honestly.

11. When you find a parking spot in downtown Auburn.

Near to impossible.

12. When you find the perfect game day outfit.

Thank you, "Behind the Glass" and "Dress Up." You are appreciated.

13. When you pass a group of high school students on tour.

Do it. Come to the Loveliest Village on the Plains.

14. When a class gets canceled.

Everyone's favorite email.

15. Anytime you see anyone you know.

War Eagle. All day, every day.

16. Anytime you hear, "Chris Davis is going to drop back into the end zone in single safety. Well, I guess if this thing comes up short he can field it and run it out. Alright, here we go. 56-yarder, it's got — no, it does not have the leg. And Chris Davis takes it in the back of the end zone. He'll run it out to the 10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 45 — There goes Davis! Davis is going to run it all the way back! Auburn's going to win the football game! Auburn's going to win the football game! He ran the missed field goal back! He ran it back 109 yards! They're not going to keep them off the field tonight! Holy cow! Oh, my God! Auburn wins! Auburn has won the Iron Bowl! Auburn has won the Iron Bowl in the most unbelievable fashion you will ever see! I cannot believe it! 34–28! And we thought 'A Miracle in Jordan-Hare' was amazing! Oh, my Lord in Heaven! Chris Davis just ran it 109 yards and Auburn is going to the championship game!"

It happens more often you would think.

17. Literally anytime ever.

It's a greeting and goodbye. It's everything in between.

God Bless and War Eagle!

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.
