Going Home For Thanksgiving As Told By Carrie Bradshaw
Digital Spy

Going home for Thanksgiving break is typically a good experience. There is nothing college students need more than a home cooked meal, the comfort of their own bed, and a nice barefoot shower before the stress of finals week hits. However, this break certainly does not come without it's caveats. The biggest one of course being, running into all the ghosts from your past. And if you tend to be as dramatic as I am, there is no person better to sum up your emotions than Carrie Bradshaw.

Catching up with all your high school friends that you haven't seen since summer

Before reality sets in that you're going to have to see the people you also definitely didn't miss

And you have nothing to wear for it because all your clothes are at college

When you're forced to catch up with someone you didn't want to do so with

And you make the decision to go to the reunion party

But it's all worth it in the end for that turkey


While you're probably going to run into some people you weren't planning on seeing ever again, it's all worth it for the experience of being home for the holiday. And if nothing else, you surely can get some laughs out of 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.
