Party With Purpose with Heart of Gold

Heart of Gold is an up and coming organization here at the University of South Florida. Partnered with With Purpose, the organization aims to bring awareness, and raise funds for research into pediatric cancer.

Follow their social medias at the bottom of this article to support the fight against pediatric cancer and stay up to date with the organization's events!

Their most recent event; Party with Purpose, involved venturing to different stations.

First you met Valerie Zhuruli at the first station.

Here you learn about the campaign, sign a petition to increase awareness and funding for research into pediatric cancer, and pick up a cute button.

The second station was my personal favorite. Here you met Libby Jourdan coloring different hearts.

This station tasked you with decorating and/or writing a cute message to support children who are currently suffering from cancer. All the hearts are being placed on a large banner and given to a local hospital here in Tampa, FL.

The next station was a fun photo booth with Alex Purcell.

They had an array of different props for you to use and a cute frame that you and your friends could pose in.

The final station (and a favorite of many people) was the pizza station!

Here, you had your passport approved from all the various stations and received a slice (or two) of pizza as a thank you for your support to the campaign.

Heart of Gold is currently running as part of the Bateman Competition in the Public Relations Society of America here at USF. The organization has many different events going on on campus so keep an eye out for the gold buttons and banners.

Make sure to follow all their social medias to stay up to date on the fight against pediatric cancer!

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.
