Just A Few Reasons Why I Love Winter So Much.

Winter is my favorite season ever. I love the feeling of having my family around and the happiness that surrounds us. I love sledding and running in the snow and making snowmen. I love snow (not brown or yellow snow) and everything else that comes with winter!

Hot Chocolate

I love curling up on the couch under a fuzzy blanket and drinking hot chocolate. I love the little marshmallows and whipped cream sitting on the top of my favorite pig mug.

Snow

What isn’t awesome about snow! There’s snow ball fights, snow angels, snow men, and snow forts and it’s so pretty and white when it first falls. When snow falls, that means ski season is upon us!!

Ice Hockey

This is the season where I can watch as many hockey games as I want! I can play pick-up games on a frozen pond or just skate around with friends.

Christmas Movies

I love watching Christmas movies, especially National Lampoon’s Christmas Vacation, and crying over the families being reunited.

Decorations

I love looking at all the lights covering houses in the neighborhoods and a blow up Santa on everyone’s lawns. The Christmas tree hanging with millions of ornaments and stockings hanging over the fireplace.

Christmas Tree

In my family we go to a Christmas tree farm to cut down the tree with the family and our dog. We take a while trying to find the perfect tree and when we finally find it, my dad chops it down and we drag it back to the car.

Food

Throughout the whole month of December, my mom buys us chocolate and an advent calendar. On Christmas day, my mom makes a ham and a bunch of other delicious sides. So basically I eat the best food of my life during this month.

Luckily we still have a few more months left of winter!!

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.
