A Eulogy To My Spring Break Body

Gone but never forgotten.

A Eulogy To My Spring Break Body
College Candy

My Spring Break Body, also known as MSBB, was a happy, healthy, well-loved part of my life. In the short time we had together, I knew that I loved her and that I wanted to spend the rest of my life with her. Please take a moment to join in a recounting and celebration of her young, beautiful life that was ended much too soon.

MSBB was born on Jan. 1, 2016, following my desperate decision to make a New Year’s resolution. Born at way too many pounds and just as many ounces, she was a heavy baby, but as her mother, I knew how wonderful she would become.

As a child, she was kind of a pain in the ass. She was a wild spirit, never doing as she was told, eating snacks out of the pantry late at night and refusing to wake up to her alarm to go on runs. However, our beloved MSSB slowly began to turn into the MSBB we all came to know and love.

She was a light to all of those around her, showing others that there really was such a thing as miracles. She worked hard and was an example of strength, perseverance and beauty. Everyone who met her loved her and she never failed to bring a smile to their face.

Tragedy struck last week, bringing the untimely end to MSSB and many others like her. In the mass murder by the psychotic killer, Finals Week, her life came to a slow, tragic end. Due to final's week’s use of excessive stress eating, MSSB quickly succumbed to the rage of Finals Week.

Though we mourn the loss of our dear friend, the week before her shining moment, we look back with the fondest memories at our time together. A memorial service will be held the Friday of spring break at 10:00 p.m. BYOB.

RIP

My Spring Break Body

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.
