12 Signs You Have A Homecoming Hangover

Homecoming: it's the craziest, busiest and best time of the year. Spending hours on hours at the house painting, pomping, building, eating, and dancing with your sisters. The late nights that turn into early mornings that are purely driven on the friendly competition keep you going... just maybe not going to class. There's a love/hate relationship with homecoming. When it's all over you experience something I like to call a homecoming hangover, and here are some of the signs you and your house maybe experiencing one.

1. You NEED sleep, and you will get it anywhere you can.

2. There's paint all over your clothes... and you weren't even painting, but it totally looks like you were just babysitting a five-year-old while finger painting.

3. Your hands are probably destroyed from cutting and overuse. Plus, you probably still have paint on them.

4. What's that in your jacket? Pomping paper? I wonder how that got in there? Probably cause you spent hours on the floor with it and those little things get everywhere!

5. You're probably behind in your classes. Even if you did go, you probably weren't awake enough to actually pay attention. Which leads to you studying at any point you can while still getting homecoming done.

6. Chances are, your parents have no clue what you've been up to because you haven't talked to them in who knows how long. Really, you were probably just painting, pomping, or building something.

7. The idea of spending another full night at the house brings tears to your eyes. It might be from the lack of sleep, or just the idea of staying there for ANOTHER night.

8. You hear a song that was in your Lip Sync, and you automatically start doing the steps no matter how much you try to stop.

9. Your room and the house look like a complete tornado went through it. There's no getting through either one without stepping on multiple things.

10. Your whole body is slowly coming off a caffeine and sugar high.

11. Seeing your sisters makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside, and you can't help but hug them because this week has made you realize how much you love each and everyone of them.

12. You may still have a little bit of remaining eyeliner on your face from the crazy make up you had to do.

13. The days or week after Homecoming, when you're feeling down or bored, just remember what it was like to hold the trophy and the happiness will return.



Homecoming is truly one the best times. You get to hang out with sisters you're already close with while getting to know and getting closer to sisters you didn't know before. Every minute is a bonding experience, and the best moment is when it's all over. You can take a deep breath and see all your hard work. Win or lose, you know you had a little fun. But we all know you enjoy it just a little bit more when you win!

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.
