Time Flies When You're Having Fun

Entering into my senior year of college.

Senior year. It’s crazy to think about how quickly time flies, how prominent moments in our lives quickly become distant memories. I remember being eighteen like it was yesterday, graduating high school and ready to start the new independent and freedom based journey in my life. Going off to college was exciting, I can remember shopping for dorm room and school supplies any free chance that I had. August 23, its move in day. As my family and I took the hour long drive to Immaculata, I can recall my dad telling me how different it will be to live away from home , how many new friends and new experiences I will have and also how quickly my freshman year will go by. My freshman year filled with various adventures, new sisters and life lessons, flew by in the blink of an eye. Move out day. As I drove away from the place I called home that year I can remember my day saying "see I told you it would be over before you know it.” The next two years were full of sorority events, school work, movie nights, weekend trips and countless midnight conversations with some of my best friends. Senior year. From 18 to almost 22 (in 4 months) I have grown tremendously and for that I am thankful. I am thankful to my parents for always being supportive and to my closest friends (you know who you are) for helping me blossom into the person I am today because without you I'd be lost. With school starting in about a month I am looking forward to the countless adventures, late nights out and my last year as a college student. A few things I will definitely be doing this year are;

1. Making a bucket list

2. Taking weekend trips

3. Eating out as much as possible

And making sure to cherish every moment

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.
