For those who are unaware, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have become engaged! Now that Harry has asked the big question, we have a lot of thoughts.


1. WHAT?

Many never thought this day would come, some have been waiting patiently since the last royal wedding, and some are confused by all the hype. Whichever category a college woman falls into, the resent headline definitely made them do a double take.

2. HECK YES

For the many who cannot get enough of Will & Kate, this new royal couple is the best finals gift they could dream of. To the world at large, this is a historic moment that speaks to the change in British tradition. Markle is much more than a 'new princess'. She is an American woman of color recognized for her own talents. She starred in a major network television show for years before royalty entered her life.

3. HECK NO

When some girls imagined this day, they pictured themselves in Meghan Markle's shoes. I feel that it is important, at this momentous time, to take a moment of silence for everyone hoping to join the British Royal Family.

4. *CHEERING*

This is all just very exciting okay? Who else is beyond pumped to see her dress? Just me? Okay....

5. *PREPARING*

A royal engagement means so many exciting things are on their way. It's time to begin preparations for a full-day of viewing the weddings, more baby royals, and tons of prince double dates!

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.
