Bundle Up for the New Year

      As we get older Christmas lists dwindle down to mostly clothes, accessories, shoes, and more clothes. But, as our lists turn into more of the same year after year, some things never change. Now that we are back at school, showing off your new wardrobe is a must. You have all of the latest styles hanging in your far too small closet and you have class rooms full of new people to impress. 

      Too bad when we get back to school the temperatures are in the single digits and the only way to get to class is covering every inch of your body in bulky coats, hats, and scarves. The classrooms are freezing and before you know it you will be back outside, so you usually dread having to take off your coat. The only solution to this problem is finding a stylish coat, rocking the beanie, and having a wide variety of scarves and gloves. So, now that classes have started back up, instead of worrying about showing off your newest outfits, try and accessorize your coat with your cutest winter accessories. 

      You may have gotten your dream pair of Frye boots and brand new Uggs, but the sidewalk salt is your enemy. Uggs turn from flawless to crusty from the slush and salt in just one 10 minute walk to class on a bad day. You definitely want to dig out your snow boots and tromp your way to class in them. Even though they might be bulky and not match, they will not get ruined like your other expensive new boots. You may think your rain boots will do just as well, but unless you plan on doubling up on smart wools your feet will freeze. 

      If you’re lucky, your new classes are closer to your house than the much warmer, first semester classes. But, if like me you have much farther to walk you will take these small helpful tips and bundle up for the upcoming frigid walks outside.

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.
