The Major Change
https://business.financialpost.com

Ever heard that it is okay to change your major? I am sure that people have told you that most people change their majors once or twice before they graduate. Well, I never thought it would happen to me, but it did. At the start of school, my freshman year I was so set on having my major picked and had this grand idea that I am going to study this major, love it and then make a career out of it. Well, that didn't really happen... so flashed forward to the start of my sophomore year I have changed my major and I am actually really excited. I went from History to Hospitality I know a bit of a change. Not going to lie to your guys it was not an easy thing for me to do. I went into college thinking that I don't want to change my major. That if I changed my major if meant that failed not only myself but also the people that had supported me when I first made my decision to study history. The hardest part in switching my major is that fact that I don't know a single thing about the field of Hospitality, but I guess that is what school is for right? One thing I did find out is that I am afraid of change. I like my bubble my bubble is safe it's where I know nothing changes. So switching into a major that I didn't know a single thing about was scary for me, but it got me out of my bubble. Change can be scary and it is normal I know it is easy to stay in your bubble, heck I have been doing it. You see though it is not the idea that the bubble is breaking it is the idea that the bubble is expanding you are adding more things to it does pushing its boundaries every day. That thing that might scare you one day might be the thing that makes your life perfect or even better. So don't be afraid of change, after all, if we were afraid of change then the world would never change.

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.
