Let's go to the beach beach, let's go get away.

Spring Break Essentials

It's FINALLY spring break time. Goodbye books, hello beach. There is only one obstacle left in your way... packing! Here are some items that you should be sure to squeeze into your already crammed suitcase.


1. The Bubba Keg

Having a large drink container may seem a bit aggressive, but nothing can be too aggressive on spring break. This will save you from running back and fourth from your room to the beach in order to refill your drink. With the bubba keg, you are sure to not miss out on any beach time. Plus it will keep your drink cold and will not break the no glass on the beach policy.


2. Portable Speakers

Okay, so you probably wanna bring something a little more portable and up to date. The important thing to remember is that the music makes the trip. So create a good playlist and choose the person with "aux chord privileges" wisely.


3. Sunscreen

...or else you are going to end up looking like Larry the Lobster. Besides, you know that it is the one thing you always forget.


4. Secret Snacks

Pack extra snacks for yourself because you know all of the snacks you and your friends bought is going to be gone within two days.


5. Two pairs of sunglasses

Bring a cheap pair and nice pair of sunglasses. Wear the cheap pair when you know it is going to be an eventful day, because most likely they are going to get broken. Then wear the nice pair when you are ready for your photo-op.


6. An upbeat attitude

Nobody wants to deal with a diva like Sharpay on spring break. You are there to have fun and if things do not go as planned, just go with it. Spontaneous memories are the best memories.


7. A solid crew

Bring your best pals that are going to allow you to have the best time possible on spring break. People that are not going to get you into trouble, but are not afraid to relax and have a good time as well. Keep in mind that you are not there for a long time, but you are there for a good time.

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.
