Five Thoughts I have when Confronted with the Terror of Bicycles

Campuses across the country are being terrorized by violent and emotionally damaging acts of dominance brought about by sadistic criminals who show little to no empathy for the social structures which usually protect us from these monsters. I am speaking, of course, about bicyclists. Whether it is a result of their breakneck speed, or the blatant superiority they display as the privileged owners of their esteemed mechanical machines they provide only unrest for those trapped to transportation via legs. Here are five thoughts that keep me awake at night when I am confronted by these two wheeled menaces to society.

5.) You can't fit through there...YOU CAN'T FIT THROUGH THERE, YOU'RE GOING TO HIT THOSE PEOPLE

...I can't believe they fit through there.

4.) That guy is just showing off

Seriously, he's balanced on two wheels at a standstill, and I'm not sure I can even ride a bike at this point. When's the last time I rode a bike?

3.) I wonder how much that bike costs in textbooks

Probably more than I would like to admit.

2.) That was too close

That guy broke my bubble so bad.

1.) I should buy a bike

I could get to class in like half the time, which means I can sleep for so much longer.

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.
