If You Wrote For The Odyssey

If you were on the Odyssey team, what would you write about?

If You Wrote For The Odyssey
Makayla Mowel

This week I wasn't sure what to write. I don't know if it's writers block or maybe I've just lost my magic (let's hope not). Then an idea popped into my mind: "I wonder what other people would write if they were on the Odyssey." So I decided to ask a couple of people what they would write about and make a list of those things. Whether I use this for my own ideas in the future or if someone else does, I just hope everyone finds it entertaining and interesting!


Olivia: "Me."

Followed by...

"You should write what it's like to live with a celebrity because I was on the Team US."


Nicole: "How to be sassy when your boss gets on your nerves." *extra salty flare*


Maddie: "Interesting ways to make money in college." For example: Writing contests, on campus jobs, returning cans, selling to Plato's closet, etc.


Destiney: "What it's like to be in a serious relationship during your college years."


Jenn: "Climate change."


Olivia (after she realized she was being too egotistical): "Why tattoos are addicting."



Lauryn: "Why having a sister is so great!"


Sam B: "I would write about something to do with taking care of our planet and each other like stop being so harsh and rude and start being caring and compassionate. We have to be the generation to change and stop the hate rather than fall into it ESPECIALLY with all of the recent events."


Jae: "What it feels like to lose a child and how to cope with the days that follow."


Sam C: "Why support animals help."


Daniella: "I would write about what it's like telling your parents you're pregnant at 15. It's not easy and not all parents are accepting. I would also tell people what to do in that situation and really educate them on what their options are."


Overall, I loved all of the responses I got! Some of them are things I have never really thought about writing and others are topics I haven't experienced or been educated on. I'm sure there will be a day where I can't think of an idea again and now I have this article to look back on!

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
