The second semester has started, and sadly, the weekends are empty! No more screams echoing from Beaver Stadium, no more "Sweet Caroline" or pizza cones until next semester. What will students do now that we have Saturdays free?

Here are some ideas to fulfill the game day blues:

1. Go to a hockey game.

It may not be the same as standing in the freezing cold at Beaver Stadium, but the hockey team is pretty good! They'll put on a good show for Penn State's sports fans. Here is their schedule.

2. Go to a basketball game.

Although their record is 7-8, going to the BJC and cheering for our Nittany Lions can surpass the time! Check out one of their upcoming games!

3. Go to the movies.

Every Tuesday, College 9 State College has $5 tickets, so go see that "Aquaman" movie we all know you're secretly dying to see! It may not be a Saturday, but nothing can beat $5 tickets!

4. Go to Get Air State College.

If you like jumping and trampolines, then this place is for you! Soar with your friends and spend your Saturdays exercising and jumping around!

5. Go to the gym. 

During game days, the IM building is closed, but now that we have Saturdays free, you can hit the weights and work on that New Year's resolution!

6. Hike Mount Nittany.

It may be winter and State College is always freezing, but get your friends together and go to Mount Nittany. The view is spectacular and worth the hike! Who knows, maybe you can even go skiing!

7. Find a new place to eat.

State College has a plethora of restaurants and small food stores! Go and explore downtown with your friends and find your new hangout spot! They are constantly adding new places like Snap Pizza!

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.
