We did it right.

LaSalle Explorers Take On Blizzard Jonas
@sergmata

There's no denying that Blizzard Jonas was ready to rock Philadelphia, and though it has brought us hours of shoveling it is safe to say that us Explorers did. it. right. The storm began just after sunset on Friday night, and as the milk and bread became scarce to find, us students began to seek shelter in our dorms, apartments and off campus homes. With great expectations for the storm, we all began to plan where the next day would take us. For some, we Nexflix and chilled, drank hot chocolate and tried to stay away from anything cold. For others we laced up our bean boots, threw on our warmest winter coats and headed down to the nearest frat party to drink the cold away. Jonas brought one hell of a storm, but it couldn't compare to the hell of a party we through back at it.

So I could sit here and describe word by word how the snow day went for us students at La Salle, but GIF's are just SO much more fun.

So let's see...

1. The night before. Get as much alcohol as you can. I mean like, this is a BLIZZARD, who knows when the next time we will be able to leave within walking vicinity. Let's make this one count...

2. We woke up. Everyone's first instinct? Look how much snow this Jonas blizzard brought us. Can we handle it? Yes we can... Let's just see if we can make it out the front door.

3. We got ready. Who cares if we look good, cause we are getting drunk and we don't care what anyone thinks about us. We got our boots, hats, jacket and gloves, grabbed as much alcohol as we could find and got ready to head out.

4. We headed out. I don't think any of us really thought about this part. You mean we actually have to walk through this 10 + inches of snow? Keep calm, more alcohol is in our future.

5. WE MADE IT. Now to look for all of your friends through the flurry's and the basic white girls who all look the same in their beanies, long black parkas and hunter rain boots.

6. Now, the search for bae. Where is he or she? Did they fall into a snow pile? Are they suffocating in that sweaty frat basement? Who cares... I'm next to the keg and that's more important right now.

7. OK, I'm 21 years old, drunk and in a snow storm with all of my best friends? What could get better than this? Let me soak this up and try not to face plant into a pile of ice mixed with yellow snow.

8. It's about that time of the night. We are all wasted and it is time to head to the dining hall. Act natural, and act sober. Oh and don't worry, that ginormous plate of french fries is totally not giving away how drunk you are.

9. RALLY. Get home, dry off, take a nap and get ready to do it all over again tonight. I don't care that you're tired, it's still a Saturday night and us Explorers do not pass up another chance to party.

10. It's all over now. Jonas, you came, you saw, you conquered. Now all we have left is a massive headache and two feet of plowed snow to dig our cars out of. Thank you, Jonas, you've given us LaSallian's some great memories. So how bout a snow day tomorrow, La Salle...We could really use a break.

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.
