22 Lies All UD Students Tell Themselves

Must be all those all-nighters.

OK, all college students lie, even us proud UD students. We stay up until the crack of dawn sitting on our porches and sleep all day — of course with a few classes in between. We love to listen to our music a little too loud and most likely our weekend starts on Thursday.

Whether we pretend to be angelic or fully admit to our demons, here are a few little lies I’m sure we’re all guilty of…

1. I’m only going to take a 20-minute nap.


2. Yeah, Mom, Tim’s (Bar and Grille) is one of my close friends.

3. I will definitely start this homework assignment early.

4. I’m doing all my laundry tomorrow.

5. I only go to the Student Neighborhood for study groups.

6. I learned so much in my CAP classes.

7. Just one more episode of Netflix.

8. I’m not going to be late to class again.

9. We’ll hit the Rec Plex tomorrow.

10. No really, I love the UDSecure wifi.

11. I won’t skip any classes.

12. I’ll just have a Marycrest monster cookie on special occasions.

13. I’ll camp out in “Club Roesch” tonight and finish all my work.

14. This class is going to be really interesting.

15. I will only eat out one time this week — wait did I hear they opened another restaurant on Brown Street?!

16. Just one cup of coffee from the Blend today — does the Heritage Coffeehouse count?

17. I will take notes in this class even if the professor shares the PowerPoint.

18. Yeah Mom, I've never taken anything out of the back of a stranger's car... (Well maybe Cousin Vinny's Pizza...)

19. I’ll pack my backpack the night before, so I won’t be in a rush tomorrow morning.

20. *insert freshman year dorm name here* was the best place to live freshman year.

21. I’ll walk up the stairs in Kettering Labs to get my steps.

22. The nun dolls aren’t that creepy — Just kidding that’s a real lie. I’m never going to the library now.

SOOOO… we have all caught ourselves in these little traps, but college students are the best. We always have the best intentions, but naps are just always calling our names. The UD fam is one of the best family's because we love our lovely blue chapel and sharing our Flyer pride. Community will always be our motto and the doors will always be held, because who couldn’t love UD?

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.
