Spring break is right around the corner. Most college students realize they do not have enough money to go anywhere. Many might be upset because some of their friends are going away, but after you read these five benefits you'll be happy you are going home.

1. FREE food.

Yes I said it free food. The thing most people spend all their money on. There is an unlimited of free food in your house back at home.

2. Home-cooked meals.

Another great part about going home is momma’s cooking. Think about the dinners. Think about how much better they are going to be then dining hall, and better then any place you would’ve been eating. Nothing beats home cooking.

3. Clean beds.

That’s right: no risk of bed bugs at some hotel you have never heard of. No rock hard uncomfortable mattresses either. You get to have nice clean sheets and cuddle up in your comfy bed.

4. You do not come out more broke than you already were.

When you go home you most definitely do not spend as much money as you would if you went somewhere. Your bank account will definitely be happy with you.

5. You’ll make your mom and dad happy.

We all know that our parents miss us a lot when we are at college, and that we miss them. They will be grinning ear to ear while hugging you (sometimes not letting go). They will be pleased because they won’t have to worry about you being somewhere even further than school.

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.
