When we were kids, St. Patrick’s Day was all about cute little leprechauns, four leaf clovers, and coloring rainbows that led to a pot of gold. But now that we’re older, and more importantly are in New York, St. Patty’s Day has a different feel to it.

1. “Wow, this parade is so festive. I am literally the most culturally aware person I’ve ever been at this very moment.”

2. “It’s 10 a.m. At least I think it’s 10 a.m., and yet I’m almost positive that person is hurling.”

via GIPHY

3. “OK, well. I’m still culturally aware.”

via GIPHY

4. “After work/class I am going to get turnt!”

via GIPHY

5. “After a nap, of course.”

via GIPHY

6. “Oh, gosh, 10 p.m. already. Maybe I should just stay home and watch Netflix?”

via GIPHY

7. “But the people screaming outside sound like they are just having the best time ever.”

via GIPHY

8. “I am doing it! After all, I am a grad student; it’s not like I’m an undergraduate anymore. I’m responsible now.”

via GIPHY

9. “Shots!”

via GIPHY

10. “Oh, God. That was not a good decision.”

via GIPHY

11. “But karaoke…”

via GIPHY

12. “Posh ain’t got sh*t on me.”

via GIPHY

13. “3 a.m. already? But… but… I’m not ready to leave.”

via GIPHY

14. “This bartender is seriously getting rude with me.”

via GIPHY

15. “No, you need to go home. Gosh.”

via GIPHY

16. “What even is a cab? Will someone help me with this Uber app, please?”


via GIPHY

17. “I am so hungry…. Taco Bell?”

via GIPHY

18. “Why TF is Taco Bell closed?”

via GIPHY

19. “McDonald’s, you never let me down.”


via GIPHY

20. “Finally home."

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.
