To all the football fans

Football's Back!

As we all know football is back! And most of us are more than excited, because football season is the best season! You get to gather in front of a big flat screen tv with a crazy amount of food and a beer or your drink of choice in hand gathered by friends in their football jerseys. Some friends routing for the same team and some routing for the other team. But you also have the people that were forced to watch it, the people there because they decided to jump on the bandwagon, and then the people that have no idea what’s going on and don’t know if it’s a basket their waiting for or a goal to be scored. But everyone knows the more people at a football gathering the better.

Among the group of people, you have the person talking about teams that aren’t even playing, the person asking a bunch of questions, the person arguing about a play/ team, the person trashing on the team the majority of the people at the gathering are routing for because they know it’s pissing people off. But we all know when there’s a major play and something big happens every single person in the room is going to jump up, yell, or shift in their seat with their eyes glued to the tv. And my favorite, is when there is a bad play and one guy jumps up, spills his drink, yells at the tv so much that he ends up spitting everywhere. The refs have been killed in many viewers minds every single game.

To all the people that aren’t football fans, yes we know we look ridiculous yelling at the tv as if the players/ mostly refs can hear us and we know you think were obnoxious. But you also don’t understand how exciting is waiting for the game, especially on Sunday nights, putting on your favorite football jersey and gathering with friends. And you also don’t understand how awesome it is to watch your team win and to be able to do that really awful victory dance at the end, hug your friends, and to be able to tell people that that’s your team. So to all my fellow football fans, we’re back and I wish your team the best of luck but just know my team is going to kick your teams ass! Lets go Patriots!

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.
