With only a quarter of the way through the new year-and decade-a lot has happened.

As three months have already passed-while it has felt like forever-there have been a surplus of events in the news since New Years' Day.

I believe we can agree that the month of January went by at a snail's pace. there was a lot to be covered. To start off, I went back to college a=to start my second semester of school. As slow as it went by...we are now at midterms. Regardless of school or not, it has been a busy year. People thought world was three was going to happen, the panic was spread through the country, memes were being made and it was only the first month.

February, who is she? I couldn't tell you what happened this month because it went by so quickly. I only remember Valentine's day because I was by myself and watched a movie with my snacks (hoping to change that). I took a few exams but that was it for me. February was also the month where the new up-coming virus begun.

IT'S CORONA TIME is the theme for March-that and the word "canceled"-since the virus has spread throughout the world. What first seemed to be a minor threat has quickly turned into a "major" one at that. Yes the virus is lethal and yes it does spread, the media has blown it out of proportion. We are in quarantine and now have to do social distancing. Due to this, our university has moved to online classes.

I was really looking forward to a full semester at college with my friends, community, and two-stepping on Thursday nights. One thing I was looking forward to was March Madness, but we no longer have it with us, it has been canceled.

Basketball is canceled.

Soccer is canceled.

Hockey Is canceled.

All sports have been canceled due to COVID-19, we can just cancel the whole month of March.

Looking into the future months, I try to see some optimism in the next few but I also see the virus getting worse among all nations.

In the meantime, while I am quarantined, I better work on my two-stepping.

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.
