Frat Beach Survival Guide
College Beach Party

To all of you UGA students going road tripping with your friends down to St. Simons Island for the Georgia/Florida game this weekend, here is a collective list of all that you must not forget to bring. With activities like soaking up the sun, watching Georgia football, eating microwavable meals, and sleeping on the floor with three people squished next to you, this weekend is bound to be one of the best college memories you will ever make.

As a GA/FL veteran, I have decided to help all you first-time GA/FL-goers out by giving you a clear and concise packing list so you don't have to miss out on any fun whatsoever.

1. A pillow & a blanket, or maybe even a sleeping bag.

That hard floor sure is hard... and cold. Bring your comfiest jammies and the softest of bedding for that pallet you'll be sleeping on.

2. Your trendiest Halloween costume

It's Frat Beach we're talking about here, people! This is your time to shine with the weirdest costume you've always been too self-conscious to wear. Luckily for you, Frat Beach is literally one huge beach party right before Halloween... Get crazy.

3. Sunscreen

Don't let those clouds deceive you - the sun is still out there somewhere, beaming harmful rays on your skin, and you could still end up burnt and hating life if that AC doesn't work in the B&B where you're staying.

4. Snacks

Bring a small bag or fanny pack to bring some sweet treats and granola bars. You'll be stuck on the beach (Frat Beach nonetheless!) and I can guarantee, none of your friends will want to leave the beach to go scavenge with you. Nutrigrain bars will do wonders!

5. Water!!!!!!!!!

Hydrate, hydrate, hydrate! You will thank me later if you fill that giant Bubba Keg up with ice water.

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.
