The Dangerous Decision: Duke Versus Yale

The game with no winner.

The Dangerous Decision: Duke Versus Yale
mashable.com

As if the upcoming election didn't leave us with enough difficult decisions to make, the NCAA tournament has provided us with one more... Dook versus Yale. How does one choose between the lesser of two evils? Well, have no fear. I'll help you make your decision right here.

1. Attire. Line them up and check them out. Who can wear the most Polo and pastels? Who has the best pair of Croakies? Who has the cleanest Sperrys? The winner here will manage to best fit their school's colors into a preppy outfit perfect for church on Sunday and brunch with Grandma.

2. Campus. This one is tough because neither can truly win. Take a seat on campus and sight see. Is anyone smiling in either place? Probably not. First to ten students who look like they're actually enjoying themselves wins.

3. Honor. What alumni can throw their alma mater pride in your face the fastest? Which one can boast about their accomplishments and fellow alumni in less than thirty seconds? We know this one is difficult because it involves you talking to them, but I promise, there's no way it won't be quick.

4. Argument. Line 'em up and get 'em started. Put a student from either university on the podium and let them fight it out. The first one to make you grateful that you don't attend their university is the obvious winner.

5. Player comparison. Let's just give it to Yale here. No one likes Grayson Allen, no one ever will. Sorry, Dookies, this one is an L.

The solution: Everyone throw up your prayers to the basketball gods. Let the basketballs deflate and the water be full of posion and let us rally for one thing: No one wants anyone to win this game.

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.
