The Care Package You Actually Want

The Care Package You Actually Want

With spring break heading towards us, we have been dodging the calories and hitting up the gym, but you may be forgetting about some of the fun things that are involved with spring break -- and it may just come with a coupon code.

Being women on the go, we rarely have time to go and try new products, or even do the research to figure out what products we like. Sure, we have our friends telling us what they like and what didn’t work for them, but when you are so busy it becomes frustrating, and the only thing you are looking forward to when you wake up in the morning is going back to sleep again at night.   

Spring break gives us that hope. Each week we tell ourselves only five more weeks, every crunch we do we say it will be worth it, and every time you say no to fast food, you remind yourself that it is better off this way.   

But I am writing to you about something that comes between now and spring break -- the Kites and Ivy spring break box. Similar to the care packages you received when you first moved into the dorms, but without the calories and stale chips you threw out, you will receive the care package before spring break, full of fun products and surprises related to the wonderful vacation that we so deserve; it is something to brighten your semester before you get to see the sunshine and the sand between your toes.            

The box is worth over $40, and continues to grow with the products that the amazing founders of the company keep filling in it. The founders are sorority woman, like most of you, who are just trying to make our hectic schedules a little less chaotic and a lot more fun.   

Make sure to check out their website, kitesandivy.com and use the coupon code BALLSTATE5 for $5 off your spring break box! Getting the mail has never been this fun!

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.
