The Emotions of Black Friday

It’s that time of the year again, fall foliage, heavy foods, and of course shopping. One of the biggest shopping days in the United States is only a few days away! Black Friday has a reputation for being an insane night for shopaholics across the country. People line up in the bitter cold waiting for stores to open in order to be one of the first to get the marked down items. As the hour's pass by shoppers express a wide variety of emotions.

1) Find some friends

In case you start to fall asleep you need someone to poke you awake

2) Prep for the long night

This is literally a mall apocalypse anything can happen-- you need to be ready

3) Map everything out

You can’t go into black Friday blind. You need to know what stores you want to go to, where they are and what time they open

4) Excitement

When the clock strikes 11pm, you just can't wait for the doors to open

5) GO GO GO!

6) It's a workout

Non-stop walking and carry multiple bags...sweating off thanksgiving dinner

7) Post-excitement

After the excitement wears off sleepiness will take over

8) The day after

You start to hate yourself because of the money you spent

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.
