It's Xingo Time

Mark your calendars

It's Xingo Time
Sarah McFadden

Grab your calendars, planners, and phones and mark down November 17th…its time for Xingo! Alpha Xi Delta is hosting our 7th annual Xingo event from 7-9 PM in Sykes Ballrooms on Thursday, November 17th. For the past 7 years, the women of Alpha Xi Delta have been hosting a big game of bingo with our own twist. As the largest philanthropy event on West Chester's campus, Xingo is a great time for everyone involved. All the proceeds raised will go to Autism Speaks to aid in research for Autism. One in every 68 children is on the autism spectrum, and it is very common with very few answers as to why. Autism Speaks hopes to find out the unanswered questions of autism. Autism Speaks was founded in February of 2008 and is dedicated to funding research for causes and treatment for autism spectrum disorders. The women of Alpha Xi Delta are so passionate about Autism Speaks, and this is our favorite event to host. Last year Xingo raised over $4,000, and we want to do that again. Bring your friends, family, and more to play a few rounds of bingo and have a great time.

Not only do we have a wonderful time hosting and playing bingo with everyone, but we also have amazing prizes for all of you. This year we have a Microsoft surface tablet, GoPro with all the accessories, Bluetooth speakers, FitBit Charge, and so much more! There are raffle baskets filled with food, clothing, gift cards, and everything in between. Tickets are $3 presale and $5 at the door, but make sure to bring your extra change for raffle tickets because you don’t want to miss out on those awesome prizes. Presale tables will be in Sykes Monday through Wednesday from 12-2, so come stop by and grab your tickets early. Make sure to come with an empty stomach for all the yummy free food that will fill your plates. Food from all over West Chester will be waiting for you when you arrive. The women of Alpha Xi Delta look forward to this event all year and we cannot wait to spend it with you. The incredible amount of money that is raised for our philanthropy is what we do it for and the fun comes along with it! Make sure to join us for some bingo, food, prizes, and fun. We can’t wait to see everyone there!

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.
