Spring Break: It's Great To Be Young

Spring break is only 3 weeks away! Woooohooooo! This is so exciting for many reasons. 

For one, it is an entire week without the stress of school and homework. For some people it is a week to catch up on rest, and have a relaxing time. For others it's a chance to go somewhere warm and sunny and have a week that they will never forget. For me this year, I am with the latter. This week is one that will be incredible and filled with crazy events that will make great stories, with some of the greatest people around. Yes, we are going to Cabo. 

Now I enjoy the very restful salon-filled spring break just like anybody else. That relaxation time is exactly what is needed when the semester is hitting you hard, but this year I could not be more thrilled to be going on this crazy adventure. The most popular spring break destination sites for college students are, Miami Beach, FL; South Padre Island, TX; Cancun, Mexico; and Cabo San Lucas, Mexico. These places though pretty popular on a regular basis come alive during the month of March as spring breakers file in. Here we go, let the good times roll!

Each day the countdown gets closer and closer to that week of bliss. Spring break for us college students has a different meaning than for a lot of people. College is always said to be the time of our lives, and part of that involves that spring break trip. We won't be able to do this much longer after college. It's a time in our lives unlike any other. A time we live and learn and experience crazy good times because when you think about it we really don't have any responsibilities! The real world is a scary place. It's when you don't get to party every weekend like you did in college; you have to get a job and learn how to support yourself and be an adult. Where's the fun in that? 

So get excited and do something fun and crazy for spring break this year! It's right around the corner. It's a time to appreciate the days of being young and being with your closest friends. Spring break is for the young and the reckless. Enjoy this time. Just chant over and over to yourself, "Three weeks... three weeks..." 

In three weeks I will no longer be looking at snowing and wearing jackets and boots. No, I will be looking at golden beaches and wearing a swimsuit and sunglasses. It will be a week for the books for sure. Once it is over, we will need another week for rest and relaxation because we had the time of our lives the week of spring break. 

Get your bags ready, check in for your flights, and cheers to a week of adventures.

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.
