A Letter To Football Season

Dear Football Season,

Hooray! You're almost here! Soon my Saturday's will be filled with tailgating, cute pics at the stadium, and watching my favorite guys kick some serious butt. I've always loved college football. I knew when I was getting ready to go to college, I wanted to go to a school in the SEC. Let's face it, the SEC is by far the best conference.

As soon as the first game began my freshman year, I was hooked. I loved the thought of dressing in my game day gear, getting ready with all my sisters, and pregaming at various tailgates. I loved the thrill of the game, the roar of the crowd, the joy of screaming our fight song when we score and calling the hogs 7,000 times every game.

The first hog call before kick-off gives me the most excitement and chills. I love hearing the sound of several thousand students and loyal hog fans calling the hogs together. It never gets old, even after two years as a collegiate fan.

I love nothing more than being a fan of Arkansas football. Hearing so many people chant and cheer every week as we continue to grow and become better and better is such a wonderful experience. Even when we lose, we are happy to be Hog fans. We love our boys, no matter if we win or lose.

Football season, you are some of the best weekends of my entire life. I have so many great memories from football game's past. Rushing the field after beating LSU, feeling utter defeat after losing to A&M at Cowboy's Stadium, even letting my parents experience the student section during Parent's Weekend. It is a very exciting time, and something to always look forward to. I get sad when you end and excited when it gets closer and closer to your arrival once again.

So, thank you. Thank you for the best Saturday's a girl could ask for, the most fun memories, and the excitement you bring to my life. I can't wait for you to come back into my life in just a few short weeks.

Go Hogs.

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.
