The worst part about going to school in a place like Kentucky is the weather. You never know what to expect, in the middle of December it may be 80 degrees, in the middle of July is might only hit 60.

While some of this weather may be beneficial there is nothing worse than snow in Spring and every college student I know has the exact same thoughts about this.

1. It was 70 and sunny two days ago

Less than 48 hours ago you were pulling out your Chacos, hanging up your Eno and slapping on the tanning oil. Now you are dressed head to toe in down feathers and living with a fear of slipping on ice.

2. I already put away my winter clothes

Those few days of warm weather and a trip to the beach for spring break had you convinced it was the end of parka season. You now spent your morning digging through your closet for your snow boots and searching under your bed for your warmest scarf.

3. Do I really have to go to class?

There is something about sunny days that make you want to get up and get outside. But the second those temps drop, going to class seems like the worst idea you have ever heard.

4. Why didn't we have a snow day?

The inch of snow on the sidewalks could cause some serious hazards on our way to class. Come on, why are you risking the safety of your students?

5. How many weeks until summer?

All the sudden the Spring semester seemed to get a whole lot longer. Someone start a countdown on their phone because if this snow sticks around any longer I'm not sure we will make it.

There's nothing better than coming back from spring break bronzed and refreshed just to have to throw on your parka again. So please Kentucky, I ask for all the students here at UK, start bringing back the sun!

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.
