Starting Off On The Right Foot

By the start of these first weeks sophomore year is going to be amazing.

Starting Off On The Right Foot
Taylor Kirsch

Summer has come to its obvious end and classes are right around the corner. Here I am heading back to Bowling Green. As I am writing this I'm sitting in my home for my sophomore year, my sorority house. I'm living in the Alpha Xi Delta house with 16 of my sisters and the first two weeks have been some of the best days and memories and school has not even started yet. It has basically been like a sleepover every night. We have watched way too many movies and Netflix episodes to count already. Ending most nights all around the kitchen island snacking and laughing.

We are all here early for fall recruitment which is super fun but stressful. So far, the lack of sleep has not taken its toll and everyone is super excited to meet the new girls.

This year I'm trying to take a new approach to my school work. I finally decided on my path of study. I am now and management major with an entrepreneurship minor. With this decision, all of my classes are now businesses classes! My schedule is quite exciting but also scary because these are now the classes that matter and not just basic general classes. So, say a quick prayer that I do not final my accounting class because it might actually be the death of me.

My goals for this year are to stay as organized as possible. I want to be better about writing things in my planner because of my hard class schedule and my new position as WKU Odyssey president. I am so excited and inspired with the beginning of the school year and all. I am so ready to start the year off on the right foot!

Also, a quick shoutout to all my house gals because this year is going to rock <3

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.
