1. When you get through all of your midterms without dying.

Exams Monday, Wednesday, Thursday. Papers due Tuesday and Friday. Stress every day, am I right?

2. Knowing you get to go home and see your dog.

Because we all know they're the ones we miss the most.

3. Realizing you’re going to have to see all your friends' pictures as they travel to exotic locations while you’re at home.

Don't get me wrong, being home is great! But something about knowing your friends are looking out at a blue ocean and you're looking at dead grass is a bummer.

4. When you’re relaxing after just getting home and your mom starts asking you to empty the dishwasher and vacuum the basement.

OK, technically those aren't my dishes, lady.

5. When your professor says that you can’t wait until the last night of break to start your five page paper due when you get back.

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F03%2F20%2F635941019524385094-1697000800_200-8.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=414&h=1d0346ca47cd8e1b77269ca0fbfe84c6b2b6b55adefb61377189cb369da40722&size=980x&c=2371763244 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F03%252F20%252F635941019524385094-1697000800_200-8.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D414%26h%3D1d0346ca47cd8e1b77269ca0fbfe84c6b2b6b55adefb61377189cb369da40722%26size%3D980x%26c%3D2371763244%22%7D" expand=1]

6. Looking at your syllabuses to see what you have due after break.

It should really be called spring (not so) break.

[rebelmouse-proxy-image https://media.rbl.ms/image?u=%2Ffiles%2F2016%2F03%2F20%2F63594102192727330530170734_200-12.gif&ho=https%3A%2F%2Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net&s=652&h=fd0618cde2e56515863fd761e4cd909bff946f21cb7ac3dd72b2246ae047f2b2&size=980x&c=2906723606 crop_info="%7B%22image%22%3A%20%22https%3A//media.rbl.ms/image%3Fu%3D%252Ffiles%252F2016%252F03%252F20%252F63594102192727330530170734_200-12.gif%26ho%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Faz616578.vo.msecnd.net%26s%3D652%26h%3Dfd0618cde2e56515863fd761e4cd909bff946f21cb7ac3dd72b2246ae047f2b2%26size%3D980x%26c%3D2906723606%22%7D" expand=1]

7. Getting to drive your car again.

Nothing like the freedom of having a car again. Target, here I come.

8. When your mom asks you to empty the dishwasher for the 45th time after you failed to get to it the last 44 times.

Sorry mom, I'm really in the middle of something important. I've committed myself to Netflix today, and I don't break promises.

9. When one by one, all your friends at home with you go back to school.

Now who am I supposed to watch hours of TV with?

10. When you start to think about how soon you’ll be back on your cool college campus with your cool college friends, being awesome.

It's going to be LEGEN...wait for it...DARY! Sorry, had to put that in there.

Abortion is Personal, Not Political

It's ridiculous the government thinks they have the right to control what a woman should do with her body

Abortion is Personal, Not Political
upload.wikimedia.org

According to New York Times, in 2019 abortion had been banned in seven states, Ohio, Kentucky, Utah, Arkansas, Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia. Utah and Arkansas are limiting abortions in the middle of the second trimester. Ohio, Kentucky, Mississippi and Georgia passed heartbeat bans which does not allow abortion after detecting a heartbeat from the fetus. Also, Alabama does not allow abortions even if a person was raped said CBS. Although, "Abortion is necessary in order to prevent a serious health risk to the woman." The Supreme Court just overturned Roe vs. Wade.

How I Went From Pro-Life To Pro-Choice

"No one can make you do this."

St. John's University
1917
How I Went From Pro-Life To Pro-Choice
msra.org

I was raised in a strict, Irish-Catholic family. My parents and grandparents, even though I love them, instilled many beliefs in me that I came to disagree with as I grew older, things like "homosexuality is weird and wrong." I eventually rejected many of these ideas once I began growing into myself, but there was always one belief I let ring true well into my teen years: abortion is the murder of an unborn baby.

In a city that never sleeps, with constant bustling and hustling in the streets, my friend and I venture out to see what the "Big Apple" is all about.

There are so many ways for one to describe the beautiful city of New York. It is breathtaking, exciting and alive all in one. Taking a trip here was absolutely the adventure of a lifetime for me and I'm so grateful to have gotten to see all there is to do in the "City of Dreams" with one of my best friends.

God, What's Next?

What you're probably asking yourself during your season of waiting.

5032
God, What's Next?

We spend most of our lives waiting for something. Maybe you're waiting for a job opportunity to open up, or for a professor to email you back because you procrastinated on your assignment, or maybe you're waiting for the next chapter in your life to start. Whatever the case maybe be for you I want to let you know that your season of waiting is not in vain! It may seem like it but your season of waiting is a crucial part in your walk with Christ. You may not have a walk with Christ and I encourage you to be open to starting a relationship with him but even your time of waiting isn't in vain. Waiting is a hard thing to do but it is so worth it in the end. The Bible even tells us this in Ecclesiastes.
