If you've ever spent any time in a Spanish class, you probably know the crazy mess that occurs within these classes. I'm talking about parties, silly conversations in Spanish, inside jokes, and sometimes even fun Spanish nicknames for each student. As a Spanish minor I've learned that once you get into the upper level classes, it gets even crazier. These are things that go through my mind and that occur in some of my Spanish classes everyday.

1. You regularly speak Spanglish when with family and friends.

2. They never understand what you're saying.

3. Why do we only talk about arroz con pollo in this class?

4. *Doing Intro to Spanish Lit homework* Wait, what did I just read?

5. *Professor asks you a question* ¿Repite por favor?

6. Día de los muertos must be celebrated! No Halloween!

7. Can we have a fiesta for the last day of class?

8. Does going to a Mexican restaurant for dinner count as extra credit?

9. No, Taco Bell doesn't count.

10. Why does it feel like I'm the only one that doesn't know what's going on?

11. But it doesn't matter because you love it anyway.

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.
