The Cleveland Indians

Cleveland is the city.

On Wednesday November 2, 2016 the Cleveland Indians made it to game 7 of the World Series against the Chicago Cubs. The game went into the 10th inning and both teams put up a good fight. The Cleveland Indians didn't win but the game was unpredictable and unlike any other I have ever seen.

Since the Cleveland Cavaliers won in Game 7 people of the city were hopeful that the Indians were capable of doing the same. Waking up the morning after and staying up extremely late for the game had me bitter but blessed. To be apart of Cleveland means much more than just a win in game seven or overtime. Our team made it this far even with injuries. We weren't supposed to make it to the playoffs let alone through the playoffs and into the World Series. The way our city has been since the Cavaliers of 2015 has been like no other. We lost to the Warriors in 2015 and came back and won it all this year.

Our city is amazing and I could not be anymore proud of it.

We have no reason to be ungrateful because our city is the best. We still support the Browns no matter how many games they lost and how incapable they are. We are dedicated and faithful to our city. The dynamic during the Cavaliers championship was astonishing, the energy downtown was unlike I've ever seen up until this past Wednesday I saw a repeat in that energy. The Indians being in the World Series is enough for me to live by Cleveland and represent my city.

We can't win every battle and the fact that we got that far is unbelievable. Cleveland took the lost to heart but the city is ready for more wins and we will get better. A lot of people had broken hearts but if you are truly devoted you don't allow that to make you hate your team. A positive outlook on the series and Cleveland is the best. Positivity is the way to get past a downfall and I know better than to let this bring me down. We have keep striving and hoping that maybe next year we will get another opportunity like this and we will win. We'll pull through this and being a dedicated fan comes with the adversity but it happens.

I am proud of our team and I am proud of our city.

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.
