My Spring Break Staycation
Sodexo

This past week was spring break on the Winona State Campus. Some students went home, and others went on vacations. Although I would have loved to do both of these, I got the pleasure of staying in Winona to continue my placement and work every single day. Now I am not complaining, The things I got to do while here were actually a lot of fun.

1. I ate cheesecake

Recently HyVee got Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake in their bakery. My roommate and I got a mini one and ate almost all of it. It is amazingly delicious. You need this in your life.

2. I woke up at 6am EVERY SINGLE DAY

Yes, this is a tad exaggerated. It was only seven of the eleven days but still. This was to much.

3. I watched an entire season of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

Recently my roommate made me watch this. I couldn't stop. After tonight it will be two seasons.

4. I did homework

NO ONE does homework over spring break. But I did it.

5. I cooked actual meals. Not just popcorn.

With the little free time I had I found the motivation to cook actual meals. I made brats, veggies, and baked potatoes. It was fantastic.

6. I worked

I know, I said I would exclude this, but my job is amazing and it was a great way to spend my time. I work for Home and Community Options. My clients are great. My coworkers are great. This job rocks

7. I took a nap

It is shocking that this was able to happen.

8. I went to my practicum

My SPED practicum is every morning for three hours at a fantastic school near Winona. I love my kids and I love my cooperating teach.

9. I procrastinated my laundry

Yes, I know. This is a horrible one. But I am running out of things because my life isn't that exciting. Give me a break

10. I watched the walls

Refer to number 9 for why this is on the list.

11. I waited for school to start again

I love having time off, but I am ready to graduate. I am so excited for this break to end and for school to start again.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
