On Returning To Odyssey
The Sweet Setup

The last few months have been very much a time of transition for me. Because of all of this, many different aspects of my life have been shuffled around in my list of priorities, especially as my time has been extremely limited. Unfortunately, Odyssey is one of the many things that has suffered because of it.

Right around the same time that this transitional period began for me, I had a sudden drop-off in Creators, as everyone in my community was having difficulty keeping up with everything they'd obligated themselves to. I wound up with no team here at UIndy except for myself, and that prevented me from wanting to write anything myself. While this is not the ideal situation, it is what I found myself left with.

Since then, I have wrestled with whether or not to attempt to rebuild this community or just let it go. I ultimately decided that I wanted to return to Odyssey and do my best to get my team back up and running again, in large part because I genuinely missed writing articles and working for and with my team. While I'm sure that it will take a decent amount of time to rebuild everything, especially to where things were before so many Creators were unable to continue.

I really do hope that I will be able to return the University of Indianapolis Odyssey team to what it once was, and I hope that there will be many people who will be interested in joining (or rejoining) the team to work with me. I know that this community can be great because it was before, and I have very high hopes that we can reach that point again.

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.
