A Drinking Guide to St. Patrick's Day
Ann Arbor News

March 17, otherwise known as St. Patrick’s Day, is celebrated in a true American fashion, by drinking. Let’s just be honest here, majority of us aren’t actually Irish but like to pretend and embrace everything from the Emerald Isle. So here are a few drink options for you to really to get in to the Irish spirit this St. Patrick’s Day.

1. Green Beer

A classic choice. It's probably everyone's favorite, cheap, Bud Light, but it's green - so it's fun!

2. Guinness

Another classic choice. Not my favorite but it's because when drinking beer - I stick the same 3 types of beers and their all light beers. So if you're more adventurous than myself and like a good stout, Guinness is a good option for you.

3. Nutty Irishman

The saying goes: "You can't drink all day if you don't start in the morning!" So just add Bailey's and Frangelico to your morning coffee and you'll be ready to go.

4. Irish Car Bomb

This "bomb" is everything Irish. It starts off with a shot glass filled with Irish cream with an Irish whiskey floater and then dropped into an Irish stout. So if your feelin' reallllll Irish, go for it.

5. Irish Breakfast

Irish whiskey, butterscotch schnapps and orange juice. Not something I would ever think of, but quite delish

So don't be boring this St. Patrick's Day, change up your normal bar order and make sure you wear a lot of green!

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.
