Minnesota: The Land of 10,000 Lakes, The North Star State, basically Antartica. If you are apart of the lucky population of those who live in this great state, then you are probably crying along with the rest of us about the current weather conditions. Come on Minnesota, IT'S APRIL. To those of you who don't live in Minnesota, here is an explanation of the seasons in Minnesota as told by The Office. ( All gifs are courtesy of Giphy.com)

1. Basically Antartica

School canceled due to snow? Nah, the school was canceled because of the -45 degree windchill.

2. Normal Winter

It's bearable, but please leave.

3. Weeklong Spring

40 degrees? Break out the sandals and the shorts, it's finally getting warm again.

4. Second Winter

Enough.

5. Spring!

Okay, now we can actually pack up the winter gear.

6. Sike, Third Winter

This was to be expected, but for the love of mother nature PLEASE STOP.

7. Spring? Winter? Mud Season.

Good luck with that spring gear. Is it acceptable to wear snow boots to avoid the mud that is everywhere? Also, that road that you probably take to work is flooded... good luck.

8. Actual Spring

Honestly, who cares anymore.

9. Construction Season

No. No. No. No. No. No. No. No. 20-minute drive? Make it at least twice that.

10. Vacation to the Sahara

When you can go from -50 degree weather in the winter to 115 in the summer you know there a problem... or you're just in Minnesota.

11. Fall...

Time for Uggs.

12. Second Summer

Please stop complaining about it being so hot out.

13. Back to School

This needs no explanation.

12. Winter, aka Hibernation Mode Activated


If you need me, I'll be in a pile of blankets.

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.
