What's the hurry?

Don't Wish Away College

Being a junior in college, you start to hear the different opinions and changing perspectives of the remaining time left of your four years here. There’s two types of people. You have the one person who would legitimately fail a class just to get one more semester in and the other person who would leave this school in a heartbeat. From the way I see it, this is the only time you will be able to experience college and it goes by in a blink of an eye. Believe it or not, there are going to be a few things that can only be found in your college time that you will miss.

One thing you will miss is the social aspect of college. It’ll soon hit you when you’re deep in your job and soon realize you don’t have the time to go out or have no energy to go out. The beauty of college is the plenty of opportunities you have to go out. Margarita Mondays, Mug night Tuesdays, Ladies night Wednesdays, Thirsty Thursdays, you can easily find an excuse to go out any day of the week. After college, you can find me at the movie theatre with my mom on a Friday night. Not that I don’t love my mom. Cherish going out with your friends while you can.

Another thing you will miss is having the pleasure of living with your best friends. Maybe your apartment/house isn’t sparkling clean, but you’re going to miss yelling at your friends to take the garbage out and complain that you never have clean utensils. Having the opportunity to live with my friends makes my college experience so awesome. You get to laugh with them the moment you wake up to the moment you go to bed. This is the most time you will spend with your friends you made from college, so don’t be in a rush to say goodbye.

Don’t wish away college. It is important to think about what’s to come after you graduate and there is no problem with being excited about your plans after college. However, ask yourself “When’s the next time you are going to experience this much 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.
