I don't know about you, but I am using this winter break to my advantage. The fall semester wiped me dry and I know the spring semester is right around the corner just waiting to take me by surprise.

1. Take a steaming hot relaxing bath

For my first two years of college I didn't have access to a bathtub and I really took advantage of it when I was home.

2. Put on your favorite music and relax 

Just close your eyes and appreciate it, because in a few weeks you're going to be listening to that playlist while stressing out over homework

3. Don't forget the face mask

We can see the wear and tear of the semester all over your face, so make sure you treat it right

4. Moisturize ALL OVER 

When was the last time you actually had time to moisturize? Never, I know. Your body needs it though and it's crying for help through your dry dry skin.

5. Take a drive down your favorite road

It'll clear your mind and make you relax. Blast your favorite music and get lost, mentally and even physically.

6. Binge watch your favorite show 

We all know that once school starts again you're not going to have any time to binge watch your favorite shows, you're just going to be in the library for 16 weeks.

7. Go to the chiropractor

You and I both know that after sitting in those stupid classroom desks for 16 weeks, you need a good back crack.

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.
