10 Things I'm Going To Do After Graduation

I've seen my parents twice in the past four months, 'nough said.

1 month and 23 days. In 1 month and 23 days, my four-year journey of blood, sweat, and tears will be over. All I've been able to think about for the last few weeks is what I want to do with my life after I graduate. A lot of you have probably had the same thoughts, but in case you need any ideas here are 10 things I want to do after graduation.

1. Take a nap.

I'm tired, I'm cranky, and if I don't get some sleep soon, I might just lose my mind.

2. Look for a job.

Okay, this is kind of a given, but as soon as I wake up from my nap the fear of crushing debt is going to set in and I'm going to need a good job to waylay that fear.

3. Go see Infinity War.

So Infinity War is finally here and comes out on my graduation day... Kyle and I will just have to forgo the premiere date and have a date night in the few days after.

4. Spend time with my fiance.

Speaking of date nights, I would really love to spend some time with Kyle before his last semester sets in. This past semester's been so busy that I feel like I only see him once a week, and we live together!

5. Go visit my family.

I've seen my parents twice in the past four months, 'nough said.

6. Visit my best friend.

Going to college in two different states means I've gotten to see Jessica even less than I've gotten to see my parents, and this is not acceptable! But we'll have to work around her grown-up schedule since she landed her dream job even before graduating! (Way to go Sissy!)

7. Read a book.

And I mean for fun, not for class. I don't think I've gotten to read anything of my own choosing since Christmas break, and I feel my brain cells dying.

8. Take a trip.

I'm going stir crazy! I need to be away for a day to a theme park or a national forest or even just to Birmingham. (I'd love to go to Disney World, though. Hint, hint Kyle.)

9. Watch some TV.

I've heard great things about Stranger Things, and I look forward to seeing if everything's true.

10. Look into grad schools.

I know, I must be a glutton for punishment...

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.
