Why 'Milk And Honey' Is A Must Read
My Trending Stories

Rupi Kaur is an up and coming poet. Her first book titled Milk and Honey has gotten a lot of buzz in the past month. Although this book was released in 2014, poetry has become a nation-wide "trend" and hobby. Every young woman should read this book because it has a lot to do with loving, hurting and healing and how to deal with it.

Everyone struggles with something, especially received hatred. But Kaur shows that it isn't rock bottom, just a new challenge.

This piece shows that people will be different than you thought and will surprise you in the best or worst ways. She shows how people can only show a part of them that they want you to see.

Obviously not actually shattering, but she's talking about heartbreak.

SO, I've just recently had the fortunate experience to be reminded just how Michigan rains. Now, before you roll your eyes at me, I HAVE EXPERIENCED RAIN (in regards of the the popular joke that Californians haven't). However, I have to agree; after experiencing one of Michigan's thunderstorms (with my college's sirens blaring in the background), it comes to mind just how different "rain" is between the two states:

If you have been following me for a long time, then you know I write about two main things: relateable articles and communication media based articles. Now, it is time for me to combine the two. For those of you that don't know, I am a radio DJ at IUP, and I DJ for a show called BPM (Beats Per Minute). It is an EDM, or electronic dance music, based show and I absolutely love it.

6 Things Owning A Cat Has Taught Me
Liz Abere

Owning a pet can get difficult and expensive. Sometimes, their vet bills cost hundreds of dollars just for one visit. On top of that, pets also need food, a wee wee pad for a dog, a litter box with litter for a cat, toys, and treats.

Here's a few of the things that he has taught me.

It's fun to see all of the selfies on social media, they are everywhere. I see pictures with pouty lips, duck lips and pucker lips. I see smokey eyes, huge fake lashes and nicely done nose jobs, boob jobs and butt lifts. Women working out in spandex, tiny tops and flip flops. I see tight abs and firm butts, manicured nails and toes, up dos and flowing hair. "Wow", I think to myself," I could apply tons of make-up, spend an hour on my hair, pose all day and not look like that. Maybe I need a longer stick!"
