Mixers And Paint Wars And Rednecks, Oh My!

To continue the process of picking a social club that fits towards you, here comes the MIXERS! Now to explain what a mixer is in my own words: A mixer is a party where you go and dress accordingly to the theme (because it's way more fun that way) and you partake in the activities and awesomeness of the club and meet new people and then decide if you would like to join that club or not. Now in reality, some people just come to get free food or a free t-shirt, but that's when we call those people "lame". Actually participating in the activities and meeting new people are what is awesome about these mixers.

The club mixers I went to were: Kappa & Phi Lambda and Epsilon & Delta's and both of them were so great! To start off with the first night of Kappa & Phi Lambda was the theme of "Redneck Olympics". To running in a sack race with garbage bags, to seeing how far you can spit a sunflower seed, the whole night was truly a Redneck's Paradise. We all dressed up in our trashiest Redneck attire and then danced the night away to "The Wobble & Cubic Shuffle". The summary of the night is that I now understand why Kappa's slogan is the "Kappa Krazies".

Night two was Epsilon & Delta's night theme of: Mardis Gras Paint Party. They had it on Big Grass and had tents lit up with green and purple Christmas lights. The event was a paint party, so it was a very colorful paint party with an addition of water balloons. I can say that everyone there that night had an exceptional time and had to spend a little longer in the shower than usual, so they can scrub the paint out of their hair. Plus, rinse off very well since there was a Slip-N-Slide that contained LOTS and LOTS of baby oil. Let's just say that I scrubbed for a good five minutes before I felt it come off! Nevertheless, I had a really great time of fun and frolly and got a really cute t-shirt as well! When it comes to water balloon fights boy versus girl style, I now understand why they say Epsilon is the most competitive. Them bulldogs don't play around!

I want to give a HUGE THANK YOU to all of the clubs and people who help set up these awesome events! This is why I'm proud to be a Faulkner Eagle! Soar Eagles.

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.
