Why 2017 Can Be A Fresh Start For You
Your Best Digs

With a new year comes a new semester. This means a fresh start for everything. You've recently been on a break so this means you've most likely had some quality rest and relaxation. This gives you a clear mind to go into the new semester. All the stuff clogging your mind from the past was left in the last year, leaving you with a fresh perspective. This is a great place to be in because you never know what this new year could hold for you.The new year also means new classes. All the stress and worry and maybe even bad grades from the past are left in the past. You get a clean slate to start over and be the best you can possibly be. Along with this new semester comes new opportunities, new boys, new friends, and an overall clean slate.

If you're a neat freak like me, the start of the semester is the best for you. It's all about organizing your new schedule, classes, and getting ready for what's to come. This means endless organizing in your calendar with a different colored pen to create a rainbow. This part is the best because you get to organize your life into one little book, all while making it aesthetically pleasing.

Along with new classes comes the opportunity to better yourself and set new goals and standards. You know what you're capable of and regardless of what happened in the past, this is a chance to reinvent the way you study, when you complete your work, and how you complete your work. With a good mindset, you can achieve anything and exceed your goals. The more positive you think, the better your outcome will be.

This new year is also a chance to leave drama from the past in the past. That dumb boy that momentarily broke your heart a little, forget about him. That friend that you got in a stupid fight about, laugh it off and move on. Literally, anything that occurred before this moment that is still weighing on your shoulders, just let it go. It's time to start fresh and that time starts now.

2017 is here ladies and gentleman and it's time to take this year on and absolutely kill it. So get ready for this new year, because it is about to bring amazing things to everyone.

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.
