In the wake of the new segment I had made with the help of good friends; my associates and I have concluded that we want to make another segment to go along with the one we have already made.

We made UTSA Speaks (our first installment) with the intentions of allowing students on campus to use their freedom of speech by answering some politically fueled questions. The idea for this is great for the community of UTSA but we noticed one little flaw. The niche of UTSA Speaks helped us in a way that people now know what we are doing and those interested in politics and society can seek us out; in doing so we gave ourselves limitations. We limited ourselves to just those sort of questions and just a specific audience. We do not necessarily want that. We also wish to seek broader subjects and audiences.

So to fix this minor causality, we came up with an entire new segment. To clarify, UTSA Speaks is still going to have more episodes, we are just simply making something else to go along with it.

This time around the questions are going to be more culturally based and less political. We want students' opinions on lifestyles, trends, etc. This time around I'll be behind the camera working the shots and my friend and associate Delano will be the face of this segment.

I now present you with wordsofdelano, a platform in the form of a segment that allows students on campus to use their freedom of speech by answering questions based on this generation's culture. We will most likely be dong this on Monday's just UTSA Speaks. So come on out there to UTSA main campus and check us out. Look for the group of people smiling and laughing with a camera and sign that says "Questions" on it. We look forward to meeting you.

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.
