Thanksgiving As Told By 'Spongebob Squarepants'

Thanksgiving As Told By 'Spongebob Squarepants'

If you didn't already know, "Spongebob Squarepants" is maybe only the best cartoon ever. At one point in our lives, we've all felt the essence of Spongebob – we are all Spongebob. Thanksgiving is celebrated in so many different ways, but we've all experienced similar things before, and who other than Spongebob to sum it up perfectly?

1. Trying to help your mom cook

We've all been there before, trying your best to help out in the kitchen. Maybe it's because there's so much going on and there are still a million things that have to be done, but whatever we try to do only seems to make it worse.

2. Meeting distant relatives

Every year, someone new shows up and you start to question your ancestry. There's no way your family can be this big...right?

3. When you're relatives bombard you with questions

We all know those questions that are bound to come up, and we have to prepare ourselves. At this point, we have them memorized, almost as if they have been scripted since the beginning of time.

4. Before eating

The food stares at you, the smell is eating you alive before you can eat it, and it seems like an eternity before it's time to indulge.

5. After eating

You've basically inhaled the entire table, and if your family is anything like mine, eating is our favorite thing to do and food is a competition.

6. You're so full, but there's still dessert

Just when you think you can't eat anymore, the art of pumpkin pie appears, and suddenly your stomach has miraculously expanded to fit in one more slice.

7. Your relatives slip you money before they leave

Let's face it, there's always at least that one relative that feels for your poor college life and slips you that Jefferson on the down low.

If you learn anything from this, be as animated as Spongebob, eat like Patrick, (don't) be as greedy as Mr. Krabs, and be more thankful than Squidward this Thanksgiving. Hope you have a great holiday!

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.

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.
