It's the memories that make it all worth it.

My Freshmen Year
myself

My freshmen year of college was all sorts of things. It was nerve wracking, memorable, and eventful. If somebody were to ask me if I would change one thing I don't think I would. I made several new friends along the way and even lost a few but that's ok, everything happens for a reason. The memories and events are what meant the most to me. Those are what will live on forever.

My freshman year was nerve wracking because I was taking five classes both semesters on top of three jobs. It was really hard to manage the time but I somehow was able to do it. Studying just built up more stress beause I wanted to pass my classes. I wanted to succeed in school. I wanted to make something of myself. Time management is the biggest thing you will need to have as a college student. I highly suggest not to procrastinate.

My freshmen year was memorable because of all the friends I have made. I remember first meeting my Best friend Katie almost a year ago because of her lastname. It is an ordinary lastname but they way she reacts to it is amazing. I am so happy to have a friend like her. She made Freshman orientation enjoyable I remember my first game of pool in the schools gameroom with who is now my ex boyfriend Dylan. He showed me that I don't have to be shy and that it is okay to be myself I remember going hiking with my friend Kelina it was a blast, even when getting lost on our way back down. I remember when my best friend Alyssa and I had our ery first dinner date together. She took me to taco bell and I tried their tacos for the very firt time. They were amazing thank you. Most of all I remember my very first day meeting Ben. I didn't have to be shy with him, I could just be myself Somewhere along the way we fell in love and I couldn't be any happier. I also remember when Josh almost killed me when he made my beef in a bun. He didn't do it on purpose though. I thank him for changing his gloves before he makes my food now.

My freshmen year was eventful because of all the events on campus and the occasional trips to my best friends car. There was the camp rock sing along that I bailed out on last second. There were the several times Alyssa had me walk with her to her car because she needed something out of it. Also our walks in the pouring rain for salad dressing and markers at cvs. I wouldn't want to change these memories for anything else because this is what bases my friendships and my college life. I couldn't thank anybody that I met more than enough. I love you all.

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.
