What Our Friends Think We Do At Pepperdine

What exactly do our out of state friends think we do during a school day? I asked, they delivered.


7 a.m.: *peaceful alarm clock plays as I calmly sit up and stretch and smile at my perfect roommate*

7 a.m.: *rolls out of bed without snoozing alarm once* Ah morning. I love these days. The sun is shining, I have no life stressors, I have never felt pain.

7:15 a.m.: Since I go to Pepperdine, I wake up looking perfect everyday and have an unlimited closet. Let me just pick the most Kardashian-worthy outfit I own for school today.

7:30 a.m: I woke up so promptly for school this morning so I have time to go and grab a healthy breakfast from the 3 Michelin Star rated cafeteria. *grabs the bag I packed the night before, because I am just that good*

7:45 a.m.: *eats lobster for breakfast*

7:52 a.m.: *Shows up 8 minutes early to class to have leisurely chat with the professor just because I like them*

8-8:50 a.m.: I am so happy to be in this 8 a.m. Honestly it brightens my mornings so much. Let me make sure the professor knows that I am happy to be here by answering every question he asks as quickly and as long winded as possible.

9 a.m.: Because I go to Pepperdine I have way too much time on my hands. I only have one class a day because they would rather us get vitamin D than spend all of our time in class.

9:15 a.m.: Okay I finished all of my homework for the week. I'll just call up all of my friends who also conveniently aren't in class and we can all go to the beach.

10 a.m.: *loads up hippy van full of all of my best friends and begins filming video footage for the superiorly edited video I will make of our beach trip*

10:15 a.m. -4:30 p.m.: *spends literally all day at the beach, wears the right SPF of sunscreen and still gets a perfect tan, no one frowns the whole day*

5 p.m.: I have unlimited money so I'll just treat myself to a casual dinner at Nobu. Because that's what we do here.

5:45 p.m.: *eats a hundred dollars worth of sushi, feels no guilt*

6 p.m.: Well, it's been a great day, I better head over to see all the celebrities that just chill around here.

6:18 p.m.: *sees Taylor Swift and her entire squad, the Kardashians, Beyonce, and Bill Nye the Science Guy all casually sitting together, has a great conversation with them about their favorite beach spot, ends up getting invited to their next get together, politely declines because I "already have plans"*

8 p.m.: I wish I just didn't have so much to do all the time. Time just slips away, you know??

8:01 p.m.: *sulks at the fact that I can never do everything I want to in life*

8:20 p.m.: Ah it's getting late. I better start winding down.

8:25 p.m.: *gets in bed, doesn't bring phone because it's "bad for my health"*

8:32 p.m.: *reads a book for fun*

9 p.m.: Man, I am so exhausted. Such a good day.


In reality, we are just as busy as any other college, and although we love we love where we are, we worked hard to be here. And we are still working hard. But honestly, we do see celebs way more often than normal (shoutout to Harry Styles), we probably are more tan than you, and time really will slip away so we better enjoy this while we have it.

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.
